Ah mate that feeling when you know the boiler's gotta come off the wall 😭😭 felt your pain in this one. But you grated and got it done man, nice finish in the end 👊🏾🔥
More great content. So glad you didn’t have to wrestle the boiler off the wall to sort the leak. Easy to edit out a mistake nice to see it left in. It is the real world. Mistakes are made it’s how you sort it that’s makes a professional. Thanks for filming all the best Pete 👍
Top tip i got from heating geek . Sod opening the wiring centre when replacing a zone valve just cut the cable and rejoin with cable connectors then you know you haven’t disturbed anything if it doesn’t work
@@jamessutton-xh9bn cheers James, yeh the filter I’ll have too pull off the speedfit part of the filter to take it off. Not perfect be any means but an option 😂
As always brilliant video, everyone has a bad day and you’re not afraid to admit it, van still looks good especially in the wet 😂 It’s one of the few things I hate about my van the warning bings n bongs, I know it’s in park/door is open/handbrake is on I’m not stupid, If I’m watching a video with a Ford in it the wife will say is that a Ford I heard the chimes 😂. In other news I can drive tomorrow that’s 6 weeks since the knee replacement 🥳
6 weeks boxed off!! How you feeling? Haha bloody Ford and their chimes.. does my head in! But you’re right. It’s only one of a few things. Still brilliant vans!
@@Heatking I’m getting there slowly but surely, mrs wasn’t happy that I was out washing and re coating my van 4 weeks after surgery but I had to have it looking good while it’s parked up 😂
Hi Dan, another enjoyable video. I love the fact that you hate some jobs. That's exactly how it is. Timber framed house you have to sleeve the flue for regs though. Unfortunately I've worked on a few
@@SherylGranger cheers mate. Oh yes, I don’t enjoy every job.. that’s for sure haha. I thought with the flues these days have the 25mm air gap around the inner flue, it gets past this reg now?
Wow wow wow. Everyone talking about the job you do. Anyone noticed the the improvements and levelling up in the video production? Well done with whole intro segment DAN. You are definitely going in the right direction keep it up brother
@@Heatking you’re welcome, yes they certainly are, I’ve just had to use a couple of them for a tv connection as the previous part had given up the ghost 😃☀️👍
Hi Dan. Looks like timber kit house. Up here in Scotland the majority of new houses built have been timber kit for the last 30 years or so. Initially it was 100mm timber stud fully insulated with vapour barrier and plasterboard on the inside. OSB with building paper on the cavity side, cavity and brick or rendered block as an outside skin. Modern kits are now typically 150mm stud fully insulated. Some also have additional insulation on the inside of the stud before the plasterboard. We rarely have inside block skin now. Soil pipe sleeve is a no no though. Good video
That’s interesting to know mate! Thank you, this house is about 30 Years old too, well however old the old valiant was.. but sounds like what you’re saying, suppose it makes them quicker to throw up!
@@ScottPark-t2l Agree flue requires sleeve through the kit but not a plastic soil pipe. the sleeve must be metal or other non-combustable material. This is primarily to prevent the spread of fire through the cavity. In the event of a fire in, for example a downstairs room, a plastic sleeve could quickly transfer fire into the cavity and into upstairs rooms.
Handy tip ,Next time, mark cables before removing from old boiler , it would have been quicker and neater to replace back to wiring centre. no junction box required then . you had the 5 core on your van aswell . But as you say you were having a bad day.
Cheers mate, I did take a photo of the wires before removing but not going to lie I couldn’t work out what was what. And couldn’t find the mis online for the OG boiler 😫
Motorised valve takes a few seconds to turn the cam before it hits the microswitch, but I'm sure you know that and it's just red mist. Happens to us all 😂
I had a nightmare with press fittings last week 😂 maybe it's a cursed month for them. I had an arguement with someone over the right way round for filling loop valves. He was adamant the check valve didn't matter which pipe it went on 😂
Them valiant are mental to get off. Had a combi with stand of bracket. Took about 2 hours to figure out how to get it off. Like you tho I made it lighter 😂😂😂
@@plumbertime haha. I don’t enjoy vaillants at the best of time mate! But I always try make them lighter, as you can see.. I’m built like a bean stalk 😂😂
I use slow radius bends and the black 15mm polyplumb pipe inserts as clip spacers. Then slowly slip the climaflex lagging over. Never use the well expensive condensate pro, rip off is an understatement.
I always use the condensate pro lagging it's so much better than clmaflex although of course its more expensive Love your content b t w it's good to see
great video mate as always not sure that new powerhead has sorted it though as it didn't work until you put the HW on as well 🤔 did you try HW only then CH only? i find that sometimes it will work OK if you do it in a certain sequence which will fool you i reckon you might be back there ☹️

Am glad you managed to get to the press coupling without taking the boiler off I could feel your pain watching it leak
@@RUclipsHero666 cheers mate. My heart sunk, when i realised. I don’t know if I’d of had the enthusiasm to take the boiler off again that day!

Haha cheers mate. I’m nowhere near the best at the whole wiring stuff, so end up learning as I go!

Soil pipe is to protect the flue from kit shrinkage.Flues have to be sleeved in kit houses according to building regs.here in Scotland.
@@ScottPark-t2l Agree flue requires sleeve through the kit but not a plastic soil pipe. the sleeve must be metal or other non-combustable material. This is primarily to prevent the spread of fire through the cavity.

Get the breakdown bible for help with the wiring mate. Also, have you tried condensate pro for the condense pipe lagging?
@@leemaggs hi mate, I do have the bible, 🙏🏽 and yeh I’ve used it in the past but it’s rather expensive
The port valve was working my Arse 😂,
Danny Boy had an absolute c**t of a day,
What could go wrong did go wrong 😂😂
😎👍🤜
Haha cheers Tony! Had me questioning myself, the fact he said the 3 port had been working before hand… 😂😂
@@Heatkingthey always claim that.

The red mist, just one of them days like you say mate. I’ve calmed down now 😂😂😂
Looks nice and neat
@@mfielding007 cheers mate. Could have been better. But was in a cupboard anyway!
That house may have been clad with bricks at a later date. Maybe that's why the soil pipe sleeve was added?
@@SeanRidley-g7z maybe mate, looked a strange set up 😂😂
I always struggle to get armaflex looking neat. Have to use it at work but at least it's behind a void😂
@@Tom_Plumb_PHS haha it’s not the best stuff in the world. But does a job 😂
Condensate pro kit , but I find it to be a bit expensive sometimes
Yeh mate I think you’re right it’s better but much more ££
I had a nightmare with press fittings last week 😂 maybe it's a cursed month for them.
I had an arguement with someone over the right way round for filling loop valves. He was adamant the check valve didn't matter which pipe it went on 😂
I don’t know as it does matter to be honest, but for future maintenance, it’s definitely better if the check valves on the cold! 😂
@@Heatking WRAS say always on the cold inlet.
Them valiant are mental to get off. Had a combi with stand of bracket. Took about 2 hours to figure out how to get it off. Like you tho I made it lighter 😂😂😂

Good shout that Ian! Will give it a go! Thank you!!
I use the condensate pro lagging. It looks very good.
Yeh I flick between the two, too be honest, this is a lot cheaper like haha.
I always use the condensate pro lagging it's so much better than clmaflex although of course its more expensive
Love your content b t w it's good to see
@@richardwilliams7900 thanks Richard. I use both but like you say, it’s more expensive, and I’m tight 😂😂
How much did you charge system boiler swap
Think it was about £2800 with everything on this one.
