I never seen anyone explain so clearly. Even the work, so neat! Well done to you!
Finding the content of these videos really helpful as a trainee, thanks bruv keep up the good work 🤟
Thank you so much for this video. I used it to do a DIY install of a TADO system. Amazing.
Very clean video. Well done
Great and clear training
Very good video, helped me out, thank you
As always, great video, thanks so much.
Glad you enjoyed it!💪
Good content mate ❤ make it look very simple.
You need to post more mate your videos are great
Ah thanks Josh! I try but with work being busy sometimes it’s hard 😅
Superb. Many Thanks.
Thanks for your viedo, support you !
Thank you! I really appreciate it👊
Brilliant video
Thank you Paul 🤝
Good video. Thanks
Clear, professional, neat, informative. What more can I say? Great video.
Nice one brother!
Thank you! 👍
Awesome video, been looking for a informative video like this for ages. So the mechanical timer that is built into the boiler does that not work anymore? So you need to link the live to the com so when it makes a connect to the switch live, it send the live current back to the boiler telling it to power up the heating? Very good video , liked and subscribed
brilliant mate keep up the great content
Thanks Mike!👊
@@advancedboilertraining anytime i,ve got quite a few to get through
Good video, the newer salus looks good
Thanks! Yeah this newer one looks really nice
Brilliant vid
Thank you!!👊
Going from salus to hive installation. Looks to have the same amount of wires as the hive mini does. Could you do a video on switching from salus to hive ?
Thank you
Exellent😊
What do I need to do with the boiler mechanical timer dial?
when we start the tap water as hot mode then heating gose start them selve with it what do on this situation…
Thanks for your vedio, please 1 question, can I use 4 cores, and use the 2 switch wires on terminal 1 2 going to com and no on the thermostat, instead of adding link between live and com on the thermostat please??? 2:06
I got salus fermo starter but I never able to set up with boiler.very inoing
Sorry can I ask you a question, I have no central heating but I have the same boiler. For some reason the central heating on the boiler is always on even if I Dont have it. Is there away that I can disconnect a wire? So that it doesn’t keep the boiler always running even when not using. I tried turning the central heating temp to 0 but still it’s always on. Thanks for your help in advance.
Brilliant video. I managed to install an hive thermostat by myself and I have this exact boiler (the name is different as mine is Potterton Apollo, but probably it's just a name). The only thing I have some doubts is about the integrated control with the pins. I set it on 1,otherwise the receiver switches on but not the boiler. Is that correct?
Again great video considering that I did everything and I have no knowledge of electrical stuff 😂. Thank you!
What N O stand for mention it above
Well done .you have now cut out the circuit protective conductor .Which protects the flex cable.
A better way would have been to connect the flex earth to the earth terminal at the combi side . Then to terminate or choc
Earth at the other side.
Also the 2x black cable's are twisted together as there was no link cable. Available. I would have guessed.
Still enjoyed the video
😊
Great video- thanks! What are you contact details for work? Seems you are in East London?
How does power reach the boiler if we disconnect the wires from the terminal in place of the thermostat receiver’s wires? The black cable that was originally linked to the terminal is linked to the mains so how does the boiler still work when we replace it with the cable straight from the receiver?
Always read the instructions
my main eco boiler is 4 years old . when I opened the electrical box all the wires where as you said except there was a link wire in the last two slots . do I still put the gray wire in with them ?I do have both lights working in the receiver ok. but the boiler seems not to want to start at times I have set.
Hi, take the link out
@@advancedboilertraining Done all that wired up as per video, I've removed the link
left the old timer on do I leave it on perm or timer program . both light are working , I've tried testing by putting the temp setting above the room temp but still won't fire up unless I put the old mechanical on . seems to defeat the idea if having a wireless thermostat . any comments .
@@bobwilson4195 Just leave the timer on the boiler constantly on. Then control the heating from the thermostat
Hi mate what’s type of cable do you use ? 4 core?
Yeah 4 core
What about the old timer do you just leave that as is?
Yeah just leave it on the on position
Not allowed to use Black for a Nautral anymore..Grey is the Nautral and Black is the switched live
Answer me this, please: I know that Brown = Live | Blue = Neutral | Green+Yellow = Earth, but what really annoys me is all that COM/NO/NC bull****. Please tell me which wire color that gibberish corresponds to. Thanks.
Earth wires should be run to,all,points and not just cut off. Connects at the boiler end, terminate in a Wago at Salus end. Neutral also needs identifying with a blue 'marker'. Convention is grey for neutral, black for aux live/switched live in a 4/5 core flex or 3 core and earth cable. Just saying
Yeah electrics aren’t my strong point, thanks for the comment. I’ll bear these in mind for when im next doing a stat
Why if its unused ? Terminating it into a wago seems pointless tbh
@@leemclaughlin3927
It’s a safety precaution. With an earth connected the flex cable is protected and could cause the rcd to trip if there was a fault. Without the earth connected than a potential live fault (a nail into the live or the cable sheath gets damaged by the metal boiler casing for instance) wouldn’t operate the rcd, thus leaving an unsafe install. It’s unlikely in this scenario where the flex is so short but it’s not only good practice, it is a requirement of the BS7671 wiring regulations.
@@Videowatcher85 it was only cut back at the stat but still inside the rest of thr flex - so a nail through the flex would still have same protection surely
I wouldn't advise anyone to install a Salus thermostat. They are an absolute disaster. I'm having mine changed ASAP. I'm tired of getting up at 6AM to go downstairs and turn the heating on manually because YET AGAIN the thermostat schedule has stopped working from the APP on the phone .Don't waste your money. Go with a different brand.
Good luck with the Salus 5 year warranty, you can no longer call Salus. There is an email address for them but they only respond with automated replies. I won’t use their products anymore!
