@@cputilitysolutions You turn the hot water fully up, it shows the C symbol, then you turn it right down and the C disappears, then u set it at the desired temp, same again if you want to turn the charge tank on, turn it fully up till C appears, then set it at desired temp, charge tank is then on
I’m a plumber… and you’re brave putting your work up for everyone to comment on… the gas you can put a bit of 28mm anywhere on the run, that would help. I’ve done a section of 32mm before. That boiler where it is ( not your fault obviously) is absolutely ridiculous, fucking size of it. I wonder what the flow rate was? 40kw gotta give some flow.. and I would never worry about power flushing a sytstem that’s been a sealed system for years…but look at the shit you got out
Thanks mate, yeah in hindsight a length of 28mm wouldn't have hurt but I got lucky with the working pressures. I do get a lot of dirty systems on my flushes!
As soon as someone says 40kw Combi to us unless it's right next to the Gas Meter first 3 meters is always 28mm. Nice job though, quite liking the new Vaillant's overall, they're really impressive, if a little lacking on the instructions when you do a system boiler and pair it up with their controls. Nice job though wouldn't want to forget it's a storage combi when you stand up it's like hanging a fridge off the wall!
I was asked to use a rcd fused spur on the Vaillant due to the pump and electronics , checking the gas on the old appliance if working would have bought you a bit more time
28mm would be best unless the Combi is very close to the incoming supply (British Gas do this as standard install on most Combi's) but large Range Cooker's with Multi Hob Burners are also a factor as their immediate demand can be massive too. Nice work though and nice to see someone who is on the case and wants the best install for the customer as well!
In this kind of scenario I also check the flame on the hob/cooker is not affected by the boiler when it's firing up etc. If it dances, back under the floor boards I go😂
Was about to order one of these as a replacement for an old Potterton Powemax HE floor standing boiler but I'm not sure I'd feel safe having one of these hanging off of a breeze block wall - dang! Why the hell didn't they just make it a floor standing boiler.
Small price to pay on top, and it works via the BUS so better for economy and the life on the boiler. I never fit them without it and it’s plug and play now too , so a really easy install and looks smart too. 👍
You was brave running 22mm to that from where that meter was, that wouldn’t been 28 all day for me, one thing, why the 3rd party on off controls ? As a bare minimum you should be giving them load comp
That’s a beast of a boiler, did you get some good hot water flow rate at the bath? Also I love Eph controls but the vaillant controls are a must for either load or weather compensation on a vaillant boiler, a lot more expensive but well worth it.
Yeah flow rate was great, actually even better once we linked out the mains in the loft 😅 yeah I always try to recommend the Vaillant controls but customer wanted something cheaper so went for EPH
@@cputilitysolutions I’ve never come across that before tbh a loft tank supplying a combi. Would of been fun to see how the 940 ran off a gravity tank 😜😜😂
@ they are really designed to remove the entry plate from the boiler fit cable through the grommet and offer the cable and plate back up to the boiler.
Can I ask a question did you not test the standing pressure at the meter and let by test before you even started work Just a question. Thanks , You should of also of gone back and tested after cadent had been
Standing pressure and let by has nothing to do with working pressure (yes I did my checks beforehand regardless). Old Turbomax was a lower kW to the 940, and as you saw I upgraded the gas run as well
@@cputilitysolutions I was just wondering out of curiosity would the standing pressure not of been low. I know you said working pressure was 13. I had same issues a while ago but my standing pressure was low on my first test before I start work.
Maté quote me for this model and regular to combi conversion , emailed you the other day I know your busy at this time and if you can tell us the depth with that tank on the back as I can’t find any details, also are they doing a jig to take the pipes up the back
That boiler installation is absolutely ridiculous , whoever agreed to have a boiler as deep as that in that location was on steroids or drunk as a lord !!! If I was the customer I would have refused to pay till either a smaller boiler was fitted or the boiler moved to a more discreet location . Sorry mate I have noticed your errors are getting more frequent now and this one tops the lot so far . All the best fir the next one that’s all I can say 👎

@@customhoused4335 it's ok mate, some people just have to make negative comments for the sake of it, I don't take any notice of it, if it makes them feel empowered typing an essay of nonsense then it's their time wasted not mine 😉
How come you strip the boiler down completely on removal? Isn't it more time efficient to just disconnect connections and lift off? Not hating just asking

Yeah they're a good alternative! There's also the Viessmann 111 & 222 as well but I've not fitted either of them before
Another great vid matey 🎉 still amazed thats not floor standing
That boiler is a beast. I'd be having sleepless nights if i hung that on some of the walls I come across.
Tell me about it, I used every fixing hole there was 😅
Was just thinking same thing. Id feel much more safer as a floor standing 6:27
@wolvolad25 I'm surprised it isn't really considering how big it is. Aesthetically it would look better and from a safety point of view even more so.
I had a 937 plus in my previous house, put it in the garage as it was a beast, never used the storage tank, so it was a waste of money buying it
How did you manage to bypass the storage tanks? Didn't know you could do that

Thanks Tony - yeah it's a beast!
Love the time lapse
I've never seen a gravity supply feeding a combi before 😮
The pressure must have been terrible.
The new valliant are a beast!
Neither have I! Had me baffled when I turned the mains off
Great vid as always

Yeah man I still get amazed at how deep it is! It is mad that they keep it wall hung rather than floorstanding
Nice video, go for vaillant controls on the next vaillant you do
Will do if customer goes for it
I was asked to use a rcd fused spur on the Vaillant due to the pump and electronics , checking the gas on the old appliance if working would have bought you a bit more time
Thanks 👍🏾
Asked by customer I take it? Is it because of pumps generally now wanting to be on rdc circuits or?

Oh no 😢you haven’t put a SensoHome on with the Vaillant gateway. Agree with the cable entry.
Customer didn't want to pay for it

I’ve just been to one of those boilers. Vaillant said 13-5 mb working pressure at boiler on max is fine.
Yes but I only had 11mb 👍🏾
@@cputilitysolutions I was surprised it could be as low as 13,5. Was it a pipe size or gas meter issue.
@@peterreid4567 undersized incoming main so Cadent had to upgrade it from the road
I'm looking for a very good combi bolier for our new house, with very good output, and hot water flow rate
In coming service was crushed, I had it once or twice in 40 years, pretty rare
Ah nice one

It worked out in the end, 1mb difference between boiler & meter 👍🏾 gave customer options for controls and that's what they went with

Bloody hell looks like a fridge on the wall 😂. What was the reasoning behind one of those? Just flow rate?
Yeah they had 2 bathrooms but no space for an unvented cylinder so this was the next best option
How much was that swap plz ? Good video

Yes but the point is why make the cable entry points so awkward

Used the old storage tank as a break tank ….usually when cold water mains pressure is too low

Whats a shunt pump ? 14:04
The hot water circulation pump that does the tanks. It's at the back of the boiler
@@cputilitysolutionspig of a job to replace
You've got to expect gas service pressure issues when fitting 40kw boilers.
True but didn't expect it to be THAT bad 😕
Is it possible to power flush a 10mm mirror bore open vent system that’s 20 years old?
Microbore
8 rads with no trvs
What are your suggestions cputility?
I wouldn't mate. Add some chemical in, leave it a week to circulate then drain down and refill and add inhibitor. Or re-pipe
How are you going to lag the condense ?
How would you lag it?
Exactly as the regs require it to be done
