    Mr Mental Gasman full respect mate. What a absolutely top notch tutorial & Instructional video. Thank you very much indeed. I've got a Baxi Bermuda in the garage somebody gifted to me about 15 years ago. It's in excellent condition....I can't fit it obviously. But I can now have a go at a little surgery 😂....Open up the back boiler & go absolutely radio rental (Mental) Cleaning it. Wire brushes paint brushes etc. I'll take pictures as i go.so i don't fluk it up when i put her back together. Then all I need to do is find a good Corgi registered Mad GasLad to fit it for me. Its a Baxi i think. One of those with the lovely all glass front with the coals in. I'm a retro looney. She's a gorgeous bit of kit in my humble opinion.....Hey just one massive big humongous thank you mate. Stay safe Citizen. I applaud thee Mukr ❤😂

    Great to see you back pal🎉, on the portable vessels , I always check mains water via outside tap or connect on to best available tap to check pressure then set vessel to that pressure minus 0.2 as sometimes water pressure is low and can cause the fog horn/rumble noise, keep up the good work, 800 on viessmanns for them parts 😮

    Interesting video and service thanks for sharing. I have read the comments so now understand this was a rental property and the landlord had ‘servicing’ records. The amount of debris and fouling of the hex does suggest this burner assembly has been undisturbed for at least a ‘few services’. You did a cracking job - the landlord is lucky to have found you.😀👍

No doubt the bailiffs will now visit her when she can't afford her mortgage because she can't work.

    • @thementalgasman3tgasmainte317
      @thementalgasman3tgasmainte317 8 днів тому

      Standard strip down is £95+ vat plus parts , this charged an extra hour for so became £190+ vat plus all materials with mark up , this guy had 19 different properties / business all with service records for boilers , imagine having a bill for about 14 boiler replacements

    • @matthewtrueblood408
      @matthewtrueblood408 8 днів тому

      If you don’t strip it down it’s not a service, just a safety & performance check. I’m afraid we have to blame BG for this now common but false sub-standard practice.
