Big thank you to Allen... for teaching me how to perform above standards always!!!!...hes an amazing guy to work with... I would also like to thank the customer who left us excellent feedback for our work... means alot to me 🙏...This was a great opportunity once again to learn how boilers are installed correctly and how important it is for Powerflushing the entire system. Thanks to Allen and Viva Training Academy. 💙
...
Really glad you enjoyed it. Thanks.
Well done Son!!!...Really proud of you to be learning with the best. x
Excellent work Kulbir! 👍🏽 You guys can come and fix my botched boiler.
Top video really helped me thanks to Alan and the super trainees, always a professional job!
Thank You for watching, Please like and share.
Why didn’t you power flush with the old boiler on?
Hi Allen hope You are well ?
I’ve been following your videos for some time now on RUclips and it has encouraged me more to get into the plumbing trade. I’m 29 years old. I don’t have much experience but I’m a quick learner and work well with my hands.
I live in Leicester and wanted to join a course probably at Leicester college are you able to point me in the right direction to the beginning of my journey :)
Just need help which course to choose .
- BPEC Domestic Gas Foundation Certificate of Achievement - C0399
- Plumbing Advanced Technical Diploma level 3 - C0361
- Plumbing Diploma level 2 - C0508
- Plumbing Technical Certificate level 2 - C0360
- Plumbing Diploma level 1 - C3076

I have no idea whats best tbh. Sorry.
I am a young man from the Middle East region studying plumbing and gas in Spain. Can I work in America for good money? What are the states that need plumbing technicians the most?
Alaska
We live in the UK Thanks.
@@AllenHart999 no problem It does not matter if the labor market needs skilled technicians in England
morenormal what did she say?
@@AllenHart999 how cost plumbing study in uk
I'm about to upgrade my old kane 455 analyser, any recommendations for a new one?
When that old boiler came off the wall it just seriously makes you wonder how some people are getting away with their work.
Where is the pride in workmanship?!
Seems to be issues with almost every job we see these days. Thanks.
Really good job again!! Trainees are learning so well, good luck with your careers lads!
They are back with me on Monday. One to one stripping boilers down. Thanks.

I remember as an apprentice at BG, because we were never given enough time to flush the system properly, some of the guys did the old milk bottle trick, one filled with the iron oxide/sludge and one with tap water, before and after the flush trick to show the customer. 🤐
Never heard of a milk bottle trick but i do the water sample in front of customers and give instant results. Thanks.
when i was training i was sent to learn on some BG jobs and the lads i was working with use to keep there magnacleanse dirty on the van, and just pull it out at the end and say they had flushed it lol! crazy
Watched. Better to install properly. Boiler
I love these videos 😁 and as you know, Allen would 100% agree that cleaning the system is the most important part of a new boiler installation.
The system water is the blood of the heating system and if it is not clean it will make the system inefficient and reduce the life of the boiler. Once that is perfect, along with all the other parts necessary to protect, it will ensure the boiler works as efficiently as possible. Yes, protecting the condensate is very important, and part of a perfect heating installation. Well done Allen and the guys who did a great job, I'm sure they learnt loads!
Thank you so much for bringing out such an amazing product to help and support us.
Allen love your videos are you ex British gas trained.
I did work for BG for many years. Thanks.
True allen the boiler's as good as the install. If installed & serviced in accordance with MI the boiler should soldier on. System water quality and anti corrosion inhibitor is key to the longevity of the boiler. Brilliant work and glad to see quality installations. You're a gem Allen 💎.
Thank You.
Hi there. I had a question….. since the government is banning gas from 2025, dont you think gas engineers will be out of jobs? Or will they be installing hobs only. Im asking because I’m interested in doing a gas course but I’m worried that I won’t be having a job in a few years and my course will go to waste.
Great video Allen as always, have you ever fitted a weather temperature compensation sensor system on the viessmann vitodons w-100 boiler like the one you have just fitted in your new boiler installation- ACS gas training-apprentice plumbers/trainees,
Plumbers are still installing gas boilers in England ? Wow, this outdated methods of heating will soon be ancient history. In most European countries gas boilers are being removed and replaced at a rapid rate.
What have they been replaced with? Thanks.
@@AllenHart999 Air source mate, which suffice for the load put upon them for many domestic properties. Biofuel and electric also coupled with solar thermal. I enjoy watching your videos by the way, I miss the old days working in the UK.
Hi I'm moving to a house with well water. Using salt water softener. Which boiler is going to be good for my condition. Because I read this water is not good for rubber seals. And it's very corrosive. Thank you
Hi, I know this is quite an old video but wondered if someone could help me with a question I have.
I am having my system boiler replaced soon, my old boiler is on its knees and the boiler being installed is a Greenstar Ri. Ive been told by BG that its a straight swap as my central heating and megaflow tank all work fine. I know they will be flushing the system and we are having a scale filter installed also as I live in a hard water area. My main question is, will the engineer have to drain each of my 6 radiators individually or can he drain them all from 1 area?
Thank you.
Quick question I have been in the metering industry for 6 years doing gas meters currently have cma3 and met 1 how would I go about going from this two getting my appliances on my gas card ?
Hi Allen my combi boiler keeps losing pressure all the time more so when I use hot water tap ive herd about the power flush would and thinking of having it done only if it would stop it from losing pressure my house is a ex council house had mears out 2 many times to count on both hands they sed they had fixed the problem but never worked so I bought it of the council as they would get things sorted out so just wondering if that would work or would I be best get new boiler snd radiator fitted as there old radiators thanks Allen
Expansion vessel recharge most probably. Book it in for a good service.

@@cliveramsbotty6077 I'm leeds
@@rayc1503 hi had it serviced About 4 weeks back the guy that did it was a friend of my wife he services Boilers he was going to put expansion vessel on it but he couldn't as we have 2 young kids so he found the part for it so he sed them he came back out week later and flushed the boiler out but still doing the same losing pressure all the time at one point it could hold its pressure for a few weeks now its every day im topping it up as long as I don't use hot water tap it holds but the moment I do thats it pressure gone this is why I'm asking if a power flush would help or make no difference i know the radiators are old company told me that there old radiators this was before I bought the house as they were ment to have fixed the issue but never did so could this fix the problem or do i have to pay out loads have new boiler and radiators it just seems to be a never ending problem aslo its had a new expansion vessel put on a couple years ago it had a new part put in from Worcester boiler company so probably can rule out them parts need replacing so wondering if i need to have power flush done but having that done can be expensive from what I've seen just wish I new what the problem was there's no leaks come off the radiators just seem over the past year its got worse
Viessmann 👍
Yes it’s a Viessmann Vitodens 100. Thanks.
Great video Allen as always 👍any particular reason for fitting the viessmann boiler? Just av never seen many over the years fitted in customers properties. Cheers
Customer wanted a Viessmann 100, Very nice boiler though. Thanks.
I found some insulation in BES magazine. Item number 20926 (I think)
Flexible from -200 to +150 degrees fully uv resistant and no need to add additional protection... £9.57 for 2 meters....
Have a look and see what you think. Let us know
Brendan Fisher It was about £21 for what I used here, that includes the pipe snug, not worth using anything else 👍 Thanks
still toying with the idea of doing the gas training course, its just taking that leap of giving up a half decent paying job, and crossing your fingers that you pass all the training and exams to become an engineer. I would be in the poop if i did it all and then failed the exam,
Only you can decide about that one. Thanks for watching and supporting this channel.
Could not agree more with doing a p/flush after new install, pointless fitting new boiler then adding 15yr + old heating water to it after. So many installers think just because they have fitted a magna filter that will be good enough, keep upping the standards of this industry Allen Great Work!
Thanks.
Touch screen boiler controls are something I've never seen before.
Lickopotamus Slurperton The touch screen on the Viessmann Vitodens 100 is very very nice.
Another top vid, thanks for sharing. Top man👍👍👍
Thank you so much.
Your a absolute poster boy of what every gas engineer in the uk should aspire to be, excellent engineer and great person
Hi mate I like to know can we power flash if radiators pipe are plastic not copper I been told it will damage joints .thanks
Yes you can
Why are there two magnetic filters?
Do a Video on the Wohler analyser Alan if you can as it looks interesting
I will try. Thanks.
@@AllenHart999 Cheers
They are great bits of kit, very popular in the industrial world. Seen many burner manufacturers using Wöhler when commissioning there burners. Knock spots off mainstream brands of analysers
Excellent job from the trainees, learning from the best !
Thank you.
Yes Ali
Thanks for watching.
How much is the cost for installation
Excellent 👍
Richard Hodgson Thanks
About 10-12 years ago I was working for someone as an apprentice I was told to ensure all pipes were straight running parallel in the floorboards too. It was a case of taking pride in the job. Ensuring pipes were soldered with no drips very neat. Good video by the way
Thank you.
Nice job. How long did this job take you? Also Which app do you use for gas rating?
2 Days, I use the tradehelp apps. Thanks.
Like to ask when you gas rated was there any other gas appliances in property.
yes
Hi Al, have A Vailant boiler Evo Tech pro 24...it sprang a leak on the condensate hose to the trap..looks like its partially corroded...can i just replace the pipe or do need to replace the trap to...i have bought the hole trap assembly, but wondered if the pipe came off seperatley?
Brilliant videos and tutorials btw. Thanks
Good video Alan
Thank You.
Hi @Allen - Great video and very beneficial. An installation like this video, how long does it take?....... I’m still new in the trade, learning how long certain jobs take. Thank you
2 Days. Thanks.
Much appreciated mate 👍🏽💯👌🏽
Nice job guys, nice bit of kit to work with too. I'm currently installing vaillant ecotec plus 838 on a site, a real bitch to get readings in chimney sweep mode, damn things keep shutting down. Perhaps you've come across this and have a solution.. keep up the good work and informative videos...👍👍
Hi Allen,,ive got to route outlet from an old meter in a toilet to the new meter site in the garage,,,is it just a case of rerouting pipework to new meter then purge and general tests such as visual inspection,boiler,flue,tighness,working pressure ?
great video. heard of them analyses before but never seen one. nice bit of kit but very expensive.
I think i need to find out a bit more about them. Thanks.
I'm currently doing my gas and found this very informative thank you. Why do you loops the flow and return when you do a mains flush would filling it up through a filling loop with a drain off hose draining it do the same thing? As that's how I've always done it
Thanks
another free boiler Alan ?
Where is your base...how long course to fitt new boiler

Top job allen as always
are you completing one of these jobs in a day? or taking 2?
Hi Liam. Depends on the job really but I would normally take two days for a combi change these days. Starting to see too many issues that need sorting out. Also I am getting old lol. Thanks.
Which common boiler brands you installing up north Allen
I am happy to install most brands TBH. Thanks.
What a teacher 😊
Could you make Allen a video talking about laser level?
ruclips.net/video/L_wOXMRAGYY/видео.html
Wondering how long it took for this job start to finish? Great video thanks
2 Days. Thanks.
Good work guys 😃🤩😍🤑
Thank You.

Customer had a new hive installed. Thanks
Like the pointers at the end of the video

4:40 he's drilling in reverse
I don,t think so but thanks for watching.
He is drilling clockwise you can CLEARLY see that! it might look reverse if you’re standing outside,But if you were standing inside its clockwise!!!! a stupid comment really
Question for the experts, you've done gas safety everything is good but how long am I responsible for he gas being good the way I found it fir example someone knocked the gas pipe and it's leaking , what proof do I need is filling in an ipad manually enough or is print out the only way
I try and take pictures of all my jobs these days, I have had a fair few move boilers that I installed. Thanks.
Hi Allan do you recommend a spirotech RV2 ? Also is it installed on the mains feed into the boiler ?
It’s installed on the flow. Thanks
@@AllenHart999 thanks. Do you recommend it ?
Akhil Varghese Depends on the install. They are not cheap
@@AllenHart999 planning on installing a Vitodens 100 30 or 35 KW combi boiler. Installer is suggesting magna clean 2 and no deaerator.
Hi, akhil varghese
Allen I get what your doing getting all these Trainees to do all the lifting hard work and you get all the cash 😂😂😂😂
You just say you teaching them 😂😂😂👍👍
k20aa 😂😂😂😂🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ Found out 😂😂🤪🤪🤪
@@AllenHart999 Good on you for giving these Guys a chance 👍👍👍👍
k20aa I am really enjoying it to be honest. Thanks for watching 👍
Another top job Allen ! respect to you
it’s always a great feeling to see you have put up another video for us
Thank you so much for watching and commenting. The more comments, Likes and share we get the better. Thanks again.
Allenq Hart No problem Allen no need to thank us, A lot of my mates always watch your videos and we are all very grateful for your time and effort and trouble for putting them up for us
by the way I hope your Mrs is now fully recovered now.
She is doing well now thank so much. Let me know of any videos you feel will help you.
Allen Hart
Thank you Allen if it’s not too much trouble a nice video on fault finding /diagnosing faults and especially on how to test thermistors, it’s quite disappointing and shocking at how many boilers are written off these days on such basic faults in my area, which is the south coast of England
