The magnets are there to stop the vibration. Normally find them stuck on the back of your analyser once you take it off 😅 another great video. Natural teacher!
Great video Luke, ive not done a strip on one of these. Changed the plate though which is a dream. Did the plate exchanger on an Si on Monday and was really tricky🤦🏼♂️👍🏼👊🏼
If you go from below than above the electrodes slide in. Also slide the flue turret to the right and not left the burner lid will go in no probs. Apart from that good work. Very thorough
Love the vids mate. Before you went out on your own did you do alot of 'spivs/private jobs ' ? Any tips on getting more of your own work before making the step on going self employed?
Thanks mate 👍 yeah was doing my own private work just by word of mouth but before I made leap I had everything ready, uniform, tools, van, branded certs/merch etc…local village groups on Facebook great place to advertise, all free and get good amount of work from them 👍
Good question, I was gonna ask the same. I quoted someone £160 for full strip, service kit, aav and inhibitor on this same boiler. Never got back to me so apparently that's too expensive 🤔
Personally I charge approximately £195 for a full strip down including new seals, electrodes, aav etc but the way I look at it is they’re paying for 40 years worth of Engineering knowledge 😎
Why did worcester combine the ignition electrode HT leads. Makes them an absolute twat to remove particularly on the I"s and these. They were doable on the Ri's and Juniors....... most of the time.
Hello Luke I'm trying to get feedback from gas engineers when they have reached retirement age and let the registration lapse as they don't intend to work in the industry what if they wanted to put a new boiler say in their own property or gas cooker hob do you think it's fair that they are unable to do that and get the warranties from said appliance because of no registration they have been the backbone of this industry from the 70s to to date they have the knowledge experience and ability to be able to do said work it seems unfair to me the people who have being the backbone of this industry through corgi acops and now gas safe are only solution is to get a gas registered engineer to do said work it seems to me that was older engineers have been sold down the river you might think because of your age is not going to apply to you put at some point you will retire and unless you keep up with your registration and updating your elements every 5 years all engineers will have the same problem at some point why can't we just pay to be registered and rely on our competence and experience having been registered for quite a considerable amount of years I would just like your opinion on this point I'm only talking about being able to do gas work in one's own property without having to pay somebody to do that, thoughts please.
I agree but would be hard to regulate, for instance say if someone did there qualification then gave it up and 15 years later want to fit there own boiler, regulations change or something they miss because of lack of training could end in disaster….but my dad would be in same position now if he replaced a gas appliance, 30 years experience and not even allowed to fit his own gas appliances in his own house….interesting debate mate 👍
Thanks Luke for taking the time to respond, mypoint or concern was for people in the industry that have actually retired from working full-time but letting their registration lapse as it is not required because one has retired, I think gas safe could easily give retired engineers a form of amnesty as long as they can prove that they have had the gas registration. I have been in contact with gas safe but had no response as yet, I am going to try and seek other retired gas engineers for their comments. As a 72 year old plumber really enjoy your work-related videos, keep up the good standard of work you seem to have been well trained, take care and be safe. John O'Shea Manchester.
Excellent, great help 🎖
Thanks mate 👍👍

Thanks mate much appreciated 🙌👍
So glad i work for Intergas. All parts accessible and no need to take 10 parts out to get to the one you want
Get some training videos uploaded and help sell the brand
Only worked on about 2/3 in my career don’t see that many about round by me
Can't really say I like the intergas, they just seem the b&m of boilers
Great video Luke, ive not done a strip on one of these. Changed the plate though which is a dream. Did the plate exchanger on an Si on Monday and was really tricky🤦🏼♂️👍🏼👊🏼
Thanks mate, first strip on these is always the hardest to be honest, plates am easy to do like you said 👍👍
Great training video this for people unfamiliar with this boiler! ❤
Dan the Plumbing man!
@@GoingDownOnJill yessss brother 😍
Thanks mate 🙌👍

What do you charge for a full strip down service like this?
Good question, I was gonna ask the same. I quoted someone £160 for full strip, service kit, aav and inhibitor on this same boiler. Never got back to me so apparently that's too expensive 🤔
£120 + materials normally
£160 is a decent price mate 👍
@bluebulldog_uk people want cheaper these days 😬 we shouldn't be dropping prices 🫡
Personally I charge approximately £195 for a full strip down including new seals, electrodes, aav etc but the way I look at it is they’re paying for 40 years worth of Engineering knowledge 😎
Are the magnets/weights to stop vibrations?
Be honest mate I’ve been told there to actually hold analyser but like you said some day it’s for vibration
Good video
Thanks mate 👍
Why didn't they make the side panels removable
Would be lot better 👍

I don’t know mate it’s an absolute pain now to remove, there’s got to be a reason but don’t see how it makes it better 👍
They’re a pain in the A !
Agreed 😅👍
Thanks for all the effort you put in, much appreciated 👍
@@theauthoritys thanks mate appreciate the support, long as it’s helping people il keep posting them 👍
Thank worchester for that bag of shit 😂. Ive just ordered thay pressure washer yesterday £93 on amazon
That’s a bargain at the moment! 👍
Hate these. Sneeze by them and the control box falls off 😂.

These boilers are shyt. I'd rather clean a crocodiles teeth than the hex of this boiler .
They really am a bad design by Worcester
