You saved my day, I was desperate as my newborn was struggling as boiler was not working and house was very cold. Thank you very much

[@davidlaws2057]

Thank you. After reading my boiler manuals and checking Vaillant website I checked your Chanel. Within minutes I had reset the boiler and fault sorted. A great resource.

[@al-azimahmed1188]

Thanks Mark, it's good to know there's tradesmen out there who genuinely want to help.

[@DannyHazell]

Thanks, Mark this was great. Looked at several others, who if they knew what they were talking about. forgot that they were trying to help the inexperienced. Yours was clear, and showed the bits without hiding them with fingers or indeed the whole body. You are a teacher!

[@AdeObadina]

Mark, the son of Ballard, you saved me from having to call out a boiler man and I was able to fix the problem within the first 3 minutes of this video - THANK YOU!!!

[@mikeham1]

Thanks for this- problem occurred Sunday bank holiday, couldn't expect engineer to come, so this was a life saver, thank you.

[@dorisbuthe7749]

Thank you for saving me the costs of the boiler man. I followed your instructions, and can have a warm shower this morning.

[@petertsharp4970]

Thank you! Got hot water and heating again now! Great explanation and good to see a boiler the same as mine. Gave me the confidence to have a go at it myself

[@maheshchouti4600]

Saved the day for me. Saw F.28 on my Valiant EcoTex Plus boiler and instruction worked like treat. Big Thank you 🙏

[@butterflypeter]

thank you for this video mark my boiler had just gone sitting here freezing with no hot water.landlords were booked for tommorrow.but thanks to your video i got everything going again cheers damien

[@EmilyDawsonimagineican]

Thank you Mark this really helped fix a small problem that I was going to get a large call out fee for. I have donated & will return if & when. Much appreciated.

[@Hiwtel]

Thank you. You saved my life ! I got F29 as the pre-paid gas meter run out of credit. Should have checked the credit more often in winter time.

[@mroc48]

Hi Mark - thank you so much for this video. Got my Valiant ecofit 425 going after clearing a frozen waste pipe!

[@ameliagardoce7956]

Thanks Mark,You save my freezing bottom,I ran out of supply due to low credit,my boiler is new,but I have no idea how to operates or reset,browsing across for help,I found you,I must say I am 100% happy, thank you

[@leeboys148]

Thanks mark much appreciated. Just had the error code F29 and you saved the day.
It’s so good to see a genuine guy like yourself, helping us mear mortals out and saving us money. Thumbs up from me mark.

[@TheDina91]

Me too I had the same code
At Saturday evening I put some things in the storage where the gas box and accidentally I closed the gas key i didn’t know what was the wrong so I searched and I found this video so I checked

[@williamirvine3648]

Last night I had an F22 pressure drop which left us with no hot water and no central heating.I couldn't make head or tail of the instruction manual so retired to bed defeated - until I remembered the wonders of UA-cam and found your channel and 7.55 minutes later I knew what to do and in no time I had reset the boiler and hot water and warmth was restored which given how cold it is at the moment is an absolute blessing - thank you so much Mark.

[@behindenemylines.3103]

Just reset my boiler after following your instructions,many thanks.

[@jannamz5235]

Thank you Mark. Once again the F.29 error popped up on my boiler following a gas inspection. Mine’s not a modern Vaillant, but pressing the ‘flame’ button appears to have resolved the problem.

[@topetoni]

Thanks Mark. Ur video just rescued me from F.28 Code. U're God sent.

[@ikeepgettingbetter]

Best explanation on UA-cam, thank you

[@teresafloyd9626]

Thank you, that seems to have fixed the problem - very well explained and very easy instructions to follow

[@baz5973]

Always informative and well explained videos. Thanks for your time and experience!

[@1952PhilB]

Thanks very much Mark. Our Vaillant stopped working today (which is just about the coldest day of the year). I checked out the troubleshooting instructions in the manual, which told me to hold down the fault clearance key for one second. This made no difference, so, after three attempts, the guidance said that I needed to contact an engineer. Thankfully I checked out your video first, and you showed me that the fault clearance button should be held down for 5 seconds. That worked a treat, and the boiler is going strong again. Thank you so much for your brilliant video!

[@63clarkey]

Thankyou I'm up and running again, well my boiler is. Top man. All cosy again 👍👍👍👍

[@vicroberts9876]

Thanks for really good vid. All I did was turn the gas off at the meter and then turned it on again an hour later. F29 fault and a dead boiler! I followed your reset instructions and PROBLEM SOLVED! I can't thank you enough.
Vic

[@SimonCooksey-jp5zs]

Fantastic Mark, a simple fix, worked straight away and saved me a call out fee. Top Bloke!

[@andypusey6506]

Great explanation, thank you Mark

[@itam-anwanessienstv8541]

Oh my God thank you ever so much for this video, God bless you immensely. I’ve just moved into this house where the landlord and letting agent have deserted me and it’s only a good neighbour that’s been helping. Finally got registered for gas yet it wasn’t working and I’ve been buying food for the past week. Went to google, saw your video and watched it and it’s working perfectly now.

[@zarasrambles]

this was very helpful, you explained what each thing is and what they do, and gave a detailed step by step process. thank you!!

[@ronaldkempson7167]

Thanks for the excellent explanation,sorted mine out after reseting following your instructions, pity you did not mention to check the water pressure gauge first, would have made the process much easier to solve.Many thanks...

[@mamcaribbeanfood6852]

Thank you. two days without hot water now fixed after this video 😅

[@1984dant]

Thank you Mark that solved my problem

[@christinathomas2100]

Many thanks for your clear explanation

[@zeekaywalker9232]

Actually I already solved the problem myself before coming to this video, however I just wanted to look up if I can gain further information that could cause this, just in case. For F.29 (at least in my case) it seemed it was a gas shortage, meaning the gas supplier didn't delivered enough gas to ignite the flame and to heat up the boiler. Anyway I love your video and explanation because you are one of a rare kind today, since most people would call a technician even though most issues can be easily solved by one selfs and you only need to call a technician if there's an issue you really can't find out and/or fix yourself. It saves you also lots of money, as like just in clicking the button, while even if the technician wouldn't most likely charge you for just pushing a button, you still gonna end up paying the fact that he had to come which can be, depending where you live, easily 50 bucks for coming and going and not being able to spent the time with a client that really needed help where he could had made way more money then just the 50bucks. So thanks for keeping people informed and being a diy craftsman of your own.

[@worlddumbination]

Mark, you are an absolute god amongst men. Thank you.

[@bhopale1]

Thank you Mark you have just saved my money to pay out to a boiler man.

Thank you so much. This worked brilliantly. You have just got a new subscriber.

[@siddharajpatel4292]

Thanks for your help 👍 🙂

[@mikeluke6499]

Thank you so much. We had a new hob installed and turning the gas supply off triggered the F29 fault which would not reset, even powering off etc.. Hob engineer was not interested, everything online says get a Gas Safe engineer in, and yet all you have to do is hold a button in for 5 seconds!

[@vollkornbrot18]

Best man! You helped us! Greets from Berlin ❤

[@patsyrichards970]

Thanks fir your help.

[@northmatt2206]

Fantastic thank you 🙏

[@nazimchohan1237]

Great Stuff Mark 👍🏽

[@keyfeatures]

We had the F28 fault and it locked out again. It was a frozen condenser outlet pipe. Worth checking if yours if frozen, after running hot water over the pipe to melt the ice we were able to restart the boiler.

[@BoatOfPorn]

Genius! After the British Gas engineer left it wasn't working. Turns out it was the gas valve under the boiler he hadn't switched back on! I wouldn't have spotted that if it hadn't been for your video! Much appreciated!

[@jamieparker3516]
