Good on you she plumbs. Should have taught him a lesson. Dan that was an interesting one. I am sure if wired a bit differently it may work to the desired effect how you were thinking.
Zone valve manufacturers need to up their game. Union fittings and detachable plugs like pumps should be standard make plumbers lives easier. 😂 Least you got your morning dump in at the first property. 😁
Cheers matey. I normally do use the regin plugs to be honest. But I wanted to show some of the beginners, how doing one cable at once in the wiring centre is one way to stop you going wrong 🙏🏽 thanks for the support mate
It basically is now an s plan, once you put the two port in the hot water flow you now have a valve to stop flow on both heating and hot water, unlike just a mid position valve that always has one port open, as for the wiring they will work independently, when a hot water only demand is called on a mid position valve it starts at the programmer sends 240 to the cylinder stat then from the cylinder stat straight to the boiler, so you wire the two port valve in between the cylinder stat and boiler, you take the feed from the cylinder stat to the boiler connect it to the brown then put the orange back in place of the cylinder stat wire ( switch live to boiler) it was a way of upgrading from an open vent to unvented cylinder without changing or rewiring or or altering valves but still keeping the 3 tier of safety 👍if they makes any sense 😂🤯 I find they would forget to fit a bypass and that would cause more issues
I’ve got lazy and use the Regin connectors now on the wiring. Too many snakes weddings. Nice video mate. Big shout to Kelli not easy controlling your feelings. Would love to be a fly on the wall if she did go back though. 😂👍👍
Yeh the regin connectors are absolutely awesome! I was tempted to use one here but I thought I’d show my strategy of how I tackle swapping the wires over without one. Yeh Kellis video Is a good one! 🙏🏽
Basically. If the 3 port valve ever failed. The 2 port would still be closed to act as a safety device on an unvented cylinder and stop the cylinder over heating. 👍🏼
Hi Dan this is one for you went to a baxi solo 3 today fan had gone phoned up the mearcant they wanted £380 for a new one .so i know a place that does recon fans phoned them up and they said thers one out the back that the box is damadged etc for £85 left the old fan with them went back fitted it and it would only stay alight with the front door off so i thought it can only be a problem with the ventury so went back to the shop looked at the old fan and then relished the ventury was the wrong way round lol went back and it all worked
@@Heatking it seams that the old boilers are now to expensive to work on so if you take one out take what you can off it it terrible not every one has got money for a new boiler I think it's a scandal
Why is there a 2 port right after the 3 port. That 3 port needs to go and change to a 2 port. They are fighting each other i think when your putting both on
@@Heatkingyou what mate😂. Auto correct has absolutely had you. I literally came to ask this same question, why is there a two port after the three port and how does it work in unison with the 3 port? Thrown me off completely trying to make sense of that being a fairly new to the game. Dumb down a response and explain it please mate😂

@@colin4685 that’s exactly what I said to them and their exact response to me!! Well actually they said. We will see how it goes now you’ve fixed it lol.

Thank you for your continued support ❤
Great one especially she plumbs.
@@rm-mastering cheers mate! If you’ve got a story. Send it across!
👌👌😎😂
@@she_plumbs here she is 😅
Love a wiring fault find 👌🏾🔥
Cheers mate. Although I walked away from this not knowing if I’d really found the fault. But thankfully it was sorted 🙏🏽
Thanks
Legend you are Alex, far too kind!! Thank you!!
@@Heatking you are very welcome 🤓 thank you for taking the time making these very educational and fun to watch videos 👍👌
@AlexRocks24-7 thanks mate. Although sometimes like this one. They aren’t very educational haha! Just added one of your pics to an outro 8th Feb 🙏🏽
@@Heatking just have fun making them and that all it matters. Was watching it with my girlfriend and she liked watching your video too 😂😂😂
@@AlexRocks24-7 haha that’s a big positive! The Mrs liking it😂😂😂
Good on you she plumbs. Should have taught him a lesson. Dan that was an interesting one. I am sure if wired a bit differently it may work to the desired effect how you were thinking.
Thanks mate, yeh I couldn’t get my head around that one 🤦🏽♂️ but still seems to have worked. No call backs!
Zone valve manufacturers need to up their game. Union fittings and detachable plugs like pumps should be standard make plumbers lives easier. 😂 Least you got your morning dump in at the first property. 😁
😂😂😂 why is everyone saying I was doing a dump 😂😂 why did I put that clip up 😂😂😂 yeh I agree. There’s so much more manufacturers could do!
3port ,better to cut cable and use a regin 5 pin plug. Better for next person too.. love your content keep them.coming :)
Cheers matey. I normally do use the regin plugs to be honest. But I wanted to show some of the beginners, how doing one cable at once in the wiring centre is one way to stop you going wrong 🙏🏽 thanks for the support mate
Thanks for another great video.
That horror story was certainly bad - there are some pretty weird people about 😱
Thanks Steve! Yeh I’m enjoying these horror stories too! Just hope I keep getting them sent in haha!
Thanks for another video mate and let’s go and hit them subscriber goals !!!
Thank you mate! Big push this year. Want that 10k 😂😂
Hey, love gadgets, smart technology, another great video Dan, hope you wasn’t taking a 💩 at the start, 😂😂. Enjoy your evening Dan.
Haha thanks mate. And noooo I wasn’t! 😂😂😂 just needed a comfy seat 😂😂😂
@@Heatking 😀 ❤️
I definitely wouldn’t put one of them showers in my gaff,
Mira have over complicated it 😂😂 no shower 🚿 if the battery 🪫 is gone 🤦♂️
👍👍🤜🤠
Haha mate. It seemed to take an age too charge to!! 😂😂😂 was quite cool when working though!
Where’d you get that Fluke116 BG edition!?😂 subby at one point? Only asking as that’s how I bumped mine 😂
Haha I’ve had it asked before, but I bought it off eBay 🙃😂😂😂
Oh I’m here
Good evening Sir! Hope all is well
Nice vid mate. 👍 what was the bit you had on the makita battery to make it a charger?
Thanks Ian. And yeh it is. Has a double usb on it. Really handy to be honest. And only
About £16 🙏🏽

Thanks for the knowledge mate. It does make sense… (I think) these systems should be banned though 😂😂😂
Really well explained.

Why’s there a 2port on the hot water? Please explain

So the Venturi in the new one was out in wrong in the first place? What a nightmare 😂 lucky you spotted it though mate.
@@Heatking yes someone must have messed about with it but you wouldn't know unless you looked at the old one
@@charliewillis8527 I’d of been blaming my diagnosis 😂😂😂
@@Heatking it seams that the old boilers are now to expensive to work on so if you take one out take what you can off it it terrible not every one has got money for a new boiler I think it's a scandal
@@charliewillis8527 I do to be honest most of the time. It’s just remembering what parts you’ve got and what they’re for 12 months down the line haha
🤘😎🤘

@@Heatking You ok Bud?
@@SuperWayneyb perfect buddy. How’s you?
Why is there a 2 port right after the 3 port. That 3 port needs to go and change to a 2 port. They are fighting each other i think when your putting both on
It made it a pain to try and diagnose😩, but basically it’s a terrible way of piping it up for the safety shut off on an unvented cylinder.

I hate when its a 3 port and a 2 port. They never work. I cant remember the reasoning why some people install it that way 😂
To annoy us two mate. Man this did my head in. But so far so good. It’s still working haha!
@Heatking I've always said to them I can repipe into a s plan for them. It's more reliable but they usually say "no no you fixed it now anyway" 😆
@@colin4685 that’s exactly what I said to them and their exact response to me!! Well actually they said. We will see how it goes now you’ve fixed it lol.
@Heatking aye that's the usual answer 😂
