    Alan, I'm not a gas engineer or a trainee but as a home owner and end user, it is important we understand the importance of getting gas appliances maintained by competent qualified people. You highlight the dangers and give great advice. We can make sure that the engineers looking at our gas appliances are competent by watching your videos as they set out what gas engineers should be doing! Thanks for passing on your knowledge.

      You are right and the more homeowners that see these videos the better really. Hopefully raise standards. Thanks.

    I've done loads of them seals before and more so since the TB come out, couple a week now, but the seal goes due to time mostly, i did one the other day with -8mb FP and the seal had still gone, as you say 5years or sooner if it fails the test

    Hi Alan big fan of your videos. Thinking of getting into pressfit thanks to watching your videos. I have seen your comparison videos but just wanted to ask what press tool and fittings do you recomend I get? I guess my only requirement is the fittings are easy to grab from a shop on the day I need them.
    Thanks.

    I know the feeling Allen ,have you ever turned up at a job and from parking your van you can see a foot of white flu sticking out the wall on an ideal logic ! and you think to yourself here goes !
    as you know you’re going to walk into the property and see a bad installation

    • @Richard-ij8ge
      @Richard-ij8ge 4 года назад

      How do you classify that on the logics, where they are showing no signs of distress and are sealed correctly but just not cut to length?

    • @SalimKhan-gk1fh
      @SalimKhan-gk1fh 4 года назад

      Richard The black rubber collar has to fit correctly over the flu outlet
      It states in the manual

    • @Richard-ij8ge
      @Richard-ij8ge 4 года назад

      Yes that's right but would you class it as AR or ncs, we have lots of new builds with logics in and most have at least a few inches of white showing

      hi Richard Allen Hart Did a video on an ideal logic boiler installation recently and I think about halfway through the video he explains help people make a mistake and install these flues incorrectly, If you watch the video you’ll see what I mean

  • @sally6457
    @sally6457 4 года назад +1

    Surely a manufacturer supplier seal should survive for the life of the boiler if fitted correctly and undisturbed, and if this is a known fault then the manufacturer should be responsible,
    If my mechanic removed the cylinder head on my car to check the gasket, that gasket would have to be replaced on every service. Costing hundreds of pounds every year?
    Plumbers seem to use the term "service" to mean fault find. If I paid for a service on my car I would expect any seal that is distributed to be replaced within the price of said service,
    Yes that length of flue needs supporting but the expensive flue extensions should come with clamps.
    I really like this channel but you must agree, most gas Safe engineers charge around £50 per gas Safe inspection, just to say it is safe. If there is any doubt in the safety they isolate the supply, they still charge the same and cut your gas of.
    You started this video with a list of faults, you didn't show how you resolved any defects. Apart from pumping up an expansion vessel.
    I know you say these videos are for ACS training but how about a video of what you should expect from a service, what it should cost, what we can do ourselves? (I'm not paying £40 an hour for you to clip a wire back and fit a couple of brackets)
    The last service on my boiler took 10 minutes and cost me £120 and they didn't even clean my magnetic filter.
    Would you use an old fibre washer on a tap connector? So why would you not replace a flue seal when disturbed?
    ACS like corgi is open to abuse by con men,
    Please know I do not think you are anything but honest and trustworthy. In the case of plumbers it seems the majority give the honest few a bad name.

      Sally Ward Lots of questions in this, sorry but it’s late now but I will try and read through it all later. I have done quite a few videos on boiler servicing, this video isn’t really aimed at that, it’s to try and help the guys and gals that are training to be a plumber or gas engineer. Thanks so much for the feedback.
