Why Did I Not Get A Press Gun Sooner!!

Purchasing a pressgun may just be the best tool I’ve ever bought I just wish I’d bought one sooner. It has made installing this boiler so much quicker and cleaner.

One thing I normally do with the flue is, once cut to size, take the boiler off the bracket, push flue through the wall then push the boiler into the flue turret then onto the bracket, sometimes makes things easier than pushing from the other side

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

I’ll keep that in mind that will help loads in some cases

[@Fraserkins]

When cutting the flue I remove the inner from the terminal then cut it from the squared end, that way you can use the factory shamfored tapered end.

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

Not a bad time that at all cheers for that 🙌

The o rings in press fittings are just to identify there use, the actual o rings on the gas are proper o rings that prob seal up to a certain pressure without leaking if you missed pressing one, whereas the water ones have little bumps on them prior to being pressed flat so they would show up as a visual leak

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

Always wondered why they have little bumps on them

[@jewelahmed6197]

Press gun is a game changers mate, one of the best tools I bought 2 years ago.

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

100% pal, wish I’d got one sooner

[@nigelmiddleton2727]

Nice job mate , certainly an improvement 👍 Leeds,Leeds,Leeds 😊

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

Cheers mate ⚪️🟡🔵

[@bryanporter3025]

Miles better now lad looks great 👍

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

Thanks pal 🙌

They are amazing. However a few drawbacks. Replacing a fitting is a real pain in the ass. It involves usually cutting out more than you should need to and extra couplings. Old way just unsolder the one fitting and replace. Also when you clamp it always seems to pull the pipe out of plumb and level, so making everything really straight is a pain, you can tweak them a little. However the speed and ease makes it well worth the initial cost

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

100% agree with you there. Its a shame you can de press a could but suppose there’s no way at all to do it like you said

[@harrysahota4072]

What worries me is the o ring in pro press fitting. O rings degrade over time as we see all the time, so 10 years plus time there might be issues with these fitting but won't be your problem. Interesting to see if plumbers put propress in their houses . I've seen soldered joints from 1930's still OK doubt you'd get propress lasting the test of time.

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

@@harrysahota4072 good point to be fair, more than likely aren’t going to last forever. At that point you’ll get everyone online slagging press of like they do pushfit fittings. And everyone will go back to soldering 😂

Great little install and press is so handy now I’ve had mine about 2 weeks love it but best buy was the angle jaws work a treat ps how does one become your apprentice for a week to play in the game 😜 keep up the good work buddy love the folders too class touch

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

Thank mate, I love it mate, wish I’d done it sooner

[@BoilerServiceandRepair]

What was actaully wrong with the worcester? A leak and youve replaced it?

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

Yes a couple of leaks gave the customer the price to repair and they decided to get a new boiler

[@WFCLucas]

Nice install, What made you go for the rigid press gun out of interest?

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

I seen it at Phex and it seemed really good very lightweight and reasonably priced

[@owsi2297]

Great job mate 👏

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

Thanks 👍

[@davidmcmahon8627]

Hi, does the fuse spur not have to be with in 1 meter of the appliance and accessible

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

Not too sure, it is accessible just didn’t know where it was 😂

[@peterreid4567]

Be curious to know if you lagged that pipe work after. Looks better with pressfit. We’re no5 allowed to use it on the gas though

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

I didn’t no as it’s in a heated room with a radiator

[@Heatking]

Neat job there mate 🎉

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

Thanks 👍

[@CommercialGasEngineerVideos]

I get why they are used in commercial settings but domestic where you can solder not requiring a hot works permit 🤔. That I don't get.

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

I understand what your saying, suppose it’s just time and a lot cleaner and if done right it looks a lot better

[@michaeltrimmer8899]

Very nice work, did you powerflush

[@SmartPipePlumbing]

No chemical flush. No need to power flush this one

[@Adam-tn7yk]

Only issue cp12 if customer asks for one.
