- Boiler Service Leeds. Full strip down Gas Boiler Service on an Ideal Logic Plus. Boiler Service Guiseley , Boiler Service Yeadon , Boiler Service Horsforth
Ideal logic Combi boiler servicing in Guiseley Leeds, always use a gas safe engineers just take case off so first of all we are going to check inside make sure there are no water leaks we are going to remove sump cover and just check the sump they do sometimes crack just where the cover is its a little bit awkward with one hand while holding camera , first we will take fan out just disconnect the fan and take the screw out under the fan, this is the old style fan and its got a nut on it as well, now we are just going to take the burner out, we have removed the four screws now and we just lift the top off and just pulls out nice and easy just going to check all the burner and make sure its all in good condition also check burner seal , now we are going to brush all this out and then we are going to give it a full clean out, so now we are going to pour some warm water down to wash it through , so all the deposits coming out. Put the front of the sump on so we can pour more water down and put it all back in reverse order , so now we are going to put it into service mode and check high and low with flue gas analyser and check its all working safely

Allen Hart hi Allen I hard this exact boiler serviced last week, everything great boiler still works but every time it fires up you can hear the spark from the electrode quite loudly it’s had a new electrode new ht lead but still hear the loud spark.. last thing in left with is the electrode igniter to replace do you think it could be that? Many thanks
Thanks mate. New to the gas industry so seeing these videos is a massive help
Thanks very much for your comment, please consider subscribing to support the channel 🙂
Check out my Ideal Logic Long Term Review ruclips.net/video/ED8cG0xd3qs/видео.html
You r the best mate. yr channel is my favourite .I've learnt from you a lot as a newly qualified Gas safe engineer.
Thank you for watching.
@@AllenHart999 hi Allen I have boiler combi logic c30 the pressure is under 0 tried to play with valve but didn't work I can't hear any noise when I opened the valve please any answer with this tnx
Good video helped me locate the seized pump.
Did one today what a pain in the back side. Extra small brushes needed. 10 ltrs of water to flush burner.
I really enjoy your vids thank you, I'm a newly qualified.
Thank you for your kind words.
Is what you done considered to be a strip down service , as i beleived a lot more would be involved. You didnt check or ckean the electrodes etc.
Proper job! Nice work
Oby One Thank You
Would cleaning the heat exchanger myself be safe, I am fairly mechanical minded, I have check the manifold, as my Logic was making a loud humming from there when the hot water is requested, which lasts 5-10 seconds.
Good job but the Condensate trap will get blocked soon and he will charge a call out fee. Should have clean the trap. Easy to do.
we always clean the trap but you make a good point as we didn't add it into the video as thats a basic thing to do.
Didn't clean condense trap, recharge vessel, clean fan venturi or clean probes.
very good video .Please tell me how to remove the black cover ( long one) you shifted to right .on the cover it says no lift how you done please
All valves should be turn clockwise (in addition to the main gas valve) before striping it down or its not relevant?
Something i was looking for n actually found 👍,i always use key words but takes ages to find on here (if)i find it that is :-/ goes into all directions at times😣 ,Thank you for that ya made it goid ,very much appreciated x
Just had a full service done on my Logic combi 30c. when the burner ignites the boiler gives a loud humming noise for about 3 seconds and then runs like normal, changed the gas valve which helped, but noise came back after a couple of days. Any idea what it could be ?
You really need to have the service engineer back out to check it. Thanks.
needs venture cleaning
@@joemurgatroyd333 The venturi was cleaned during the full service
Would you hover you analyser around the burner seal to check its sealed correctly after ?
If you take electrode out and clean it, is the gas seal broken? Do you need to worry about gas leaks if you clean electrodes by taking them out? Thanks!
i would always change it on electrodes. Thanks.
great video. nice one
Thanks for watching.
I have an Ideal logic combined 30 boiler. A previous engineer did say that the model wasn't very good. I had it on one of those government grant schemes. Now Corgi Homecare aren't going to cover the repair I have been advised to have it power flushed.
solitarymaninblack corgi and all of the other maintenance insurers have tightened up on scale and sludge. Cutting through all of the jargon you need to view any of these policies as cover for sudden breakdown and emergency repair. Corgi happily cover items which are considered wear and tear, but several of the others do not cover wear and tear. When you have the system flushed send a copy of the paperwork into them and any restrictions on your cover will be lifted. Imagine never changing the oil on a car then expecting a vehicle maintenance insurance to cover a seized engine.
How would you check flue integrity on these ? Other than out outside
Hi do you know after service a bit noise when start on from venture tube
Did you clean it?
Thanks very much for your comment, please consider subscribing to support the channel 🙂
The gauge on my ideal combi keeps jumping up and down every few seconds when i put my central heating on and makes a sound like its struggling to stay on , any ideas? Thanks
electrician154 That’s normal, 👍
Do you drain the boiler before doing this? Do you check the expansion vessel pressure when pressurised or with 0 pressure?
You need to drain the boiler so you are able to check the expansion vessel.
I have an IDEAL logic 24 combi and two months ago it was diagnosed with a split heat exchanger. (by myself to be honest after research)...some seem to miss the diagnosis as the water runs straight into the condensate pipe and some might think the rads or pipes just "must" be leaking..The water pressure dropped continuously, but showed no signs of leaking within the boiler....
It was exchanged and cost me £275 by IDEAL.Two months on and it is now working but very noisy.The sound is like tacks rattling in a tin..sound coming from inside of boiler continuously.It isn`t expansion noises or pipes moving. Is it the new hex.?..Four years old and this is happening.
Any suggestions as to what may be causing it anyone.?
have you had the system ph checked. Thanks for watching.
Good video
Please give the video a thumbs up.
Just so non heating engineers watching this. It takes a lot longer than 5 minutes to do what's been done there. I appreciate your video mate but you have to clarify the time taken to do this as consumers always think we're trying to rip them off when we charge for services even if they don't actually say so to your face.
Takes me about an hour. Thanks.
@@AllenHart999 Took the guy that did mine about 30 minutes for £70 and he didn't even put the cover back right .I had to push it home myself. I don't think he cleaned the heat exchanger either
Jonophilous if it’s a room sealed boiler and case is not correctly fitted That breaks gas regs
Jonophilous Same here I’ve come across quite a few ideals that when you look at them the cover is sitting proud of the control dials and you have to remove the cover and refit it properly so it’s flush and snug, It’s a joke really as this is a room sealed gas appliance
Hi Alan i like your vids but . Expansion vessel test is not shown here . And also cleaning of the condense trap after the flush. As already mentioned it takes longer than 5 mins to complete. PA
High burn with a tap on or not. Loe burn with same tap open????
Newly qualified how do u put ideal on min and max settings can find on Manuals
Shame you don't cover the Coventry area. The trouble I'm having finding a good engineer is unbelievable.
Hi Allen, have you had any common probs with the logic heat 15. Showing FD, no water flow...
If its a brand new boiler i would guess the flow and return are the wrong way round. if its old boiler i would say air loc, flow switch or pump. thanks.
Allen Hart thanks Allen I’ll look into that
@@AllenHart999 ? In the boiler, what actually stops water flow if flow and return are wrong way round, a single component or combination of things ? A few people have mentioned the flow and return reversal problem so it seems less rare than I imagined.
Forgot to clean out the condensate trap? All the limescale flushed from the burner will end up in the condensate well.
we always clean the trap but you make a good point as we didn't add it into the video as thats a basic thing to do. Thanks for watching.

Surely pouring water thru heat exchanger flushes the trap.
And they're transparent so you can see any contaminant in it
How long would you say a standard service for a combi boiler would take? In my case I've got a Ideal Logic. What's the life of these please. The last service I had the guy was in and out in 13mins, I've never experienced such a short duration for a service. Thanks
I would say 13 mins is not enough, best standard service would be 30 to 45 minutes of continuous work.these boiler are very complicated and time consuming but a pro would get it done in half the time,as a pro has years of experience. best advice is to self drain the entire system out of water-ether the by the radiator vale using a hose or inside the boiler on the heat exchanger,just unscrew it a little and have a bucket in hand. and use inhibitors afterwards in the magnacleaner, and having a magnacleaner helps.
Great vid as usual mate. How did you get it in service mode?
ruclips.net/video/V3OB14t1pWs/видео.html
Do u not check the gas rates/burner pressure on a service mate?
You would always need to check gas rate or gas pressure or both. i cannot add everything in a video though. Thanks.
Is it easier to be a gas Engineer or electrician
A decent job there mate. How many British gas engineers would do a service like that. !
none!
Realistically if your readings are correct as per the MI's this wouldn't be necessary every year, I'm sure the boys are BG do this when its required.
ideal told us it needed to be done every year. Thanks for watching.
The amount of noisey logics that flushing the heat exchanger solves is massive.
On my jobs I flush everyone through. Saves agg in the future
Daniel Curry
Hi Daniel so if your heat exchanger is dirty the symptoms will be excessive noise I take it?
Im newly subbed , viewing from ireland , your videos are very informative , have you a video on gas rating a boiler thanks !
Stay safe. Watch this one just in case. Thanks ruclips.net/video/Hh5lFC7VI4U/видео.html
How much to service a worcester combo boiler?
Sash Window
How do you change the fan if faulty. How do you diagnose a faulty fan
Need to call a gas engineer to test it for you. Thanks for watching.
nice one mate.
Thanks for watching.
how much is a service cost for this boiler ?????
Depends what’s needed. Thanks
just a service no parts
That heat exchanger looked like it was leaking top left.
good video mate any more services for others makes like valliant .worcester. potterton
At least explain how you put it into high burn
good Job! Many Service Engineers could learn from you. I’ve seen this Ideal the first Time,but the control Buttons looks like the same an Vaillant,and the Ventilator looks like a Part from Bosch( Buderus) . the Heating Element( don’t know The Name in English,Sorry ..i named it the Burning Body, is the same like in the older condensating Junkers Models. This Heater looks like a Mixing of all the Products I’ve know. is it? From Baxi I’ve know the Company,they use Parts from Brötje.Ive use Baxi here in Spain,because getting the Service Parts is quickly.
Thanks for watching.
Ideal boiler service probably have to do a lot of them as they are shite boilers. If you have 1 I advise you get rid of ASAP.
If you thinking about getting 1...don't they are shite
they are not a bad boiler really, just need to be looked after to thats all, thanks for watching.
And plumbers charge £80 for that....outrageous!
costs about £5,000 in tools so a plumber can do such a job, then business running costs, van insurance, public liability , gas safe , acs training, replacing tools when scum rob us, also profit for the business so we are still around next year or if you have any issues, etc etc Maybe plumbers really need to start charging the correct price, maybe £100 a service.
(:o(
sue rowe once a boiler cover is removed only a qualified gas engineer can recognise possible signs of danger on the boiler. you are actually paying for a service and knowledge
either £80 for us to look
at annually or either £3-4k boiler swap that may of caused harm or death in your property
THATS WHAT YOU PAY FOR 😀👍
Sue Rowe No doubt you are employed by a company, who as well as paying you your wages / salary, have other costs associated with employing you, e.g. employers national insurance contributions, Pension contributions, covering sick pay, maternity pay, holiday pay etc. So for every hour you work the company are paying you just a little more than what you actually receive in your pay packet. So a self employed tradesperson has got to cover these costs as well as the practical costs of being able to do the job as Allen has explained.
It cost me £30 to have somebody in a call centre change the address on my car insurance. So £80 for somebody to come out and service a boiler actually seems quite a bargain when you think of all the associated costs and training involved. Some of the more basic stuff like visual checks and cleaning the condensate trap were not shown in the video so there is a few other things to check. Plus the in-depth knowledge of the other hundreds of different boilers you'll encounter.
