Great video mate. It's so refreshing to see that there are still some honest people like yourself willing to take the time to explain all this to people. Plus, even better is that even you yourself don't mind anyone pointing out any mistakes you might be making. That takes guts mate. I applaud you and no doubt you will be successful anyways.
Great video. The air separator is upside down but it is a nice neat install with pride taken in the work. I do wish people would take as much pride doing installs. I find that customers don't know how lucky they are when they get installers like this. You've got a good humble attitude that would disarm those sharks that tear people down when they make videos like these on youtube. lol
Thank you for the video it was in depth and very educational I watched all the way through I kept checking when your new video was coming it was definitely worth the wait keep them coming 👍
Great video mate, I like your honesty, you don’t have to be the best as long as we are all learning something new, I’m definitely going to put the boiler tails on first next time I fit one. The only thing I dislike about this boiler is the plastic bottoms as it’s easy to melt while soldering even with a heat mat. 👍🏼
These boilers are abosolute nightmare to install the plastic bottoms are horrendous, where you have to cut the membrane to wire it up are useless if the cable gets pulled and the hole becomes to big the boiler essentially is not room sealed no more. The connections are ridiculously hard to do up. The fact you have to turn the boiler on to fill it up and pressurise it another ball ache. All round shit
One thing for sure. If you don't plumb in the valves first by turning the boiler upside down you'll get totally pissed by the time you realise you didn't read the MI. Even so. The only reason you'd use this boiler is space. Done loads and had a couple issues later. Vaillant came out and sorted 🙏🏼 You'll always have an issue with most boilers. It's life. Regarding soldering underneath. Just use a heat mat. Problem solved 😂
I really liked this Video . PS have no intention to do it myself but you get why it is so expensive to get a new boiler. More to it than you might think!
Good job! When fitting a boiler I pipe from left to right, especially on the plus and the pros, so you have room to turn your spanner without hitting other pipes, makes your life easier! Also when I solder I start from the top of the fitting, that way as you solder it runs down into the rest of the fitting and you never get runs out the bottom. Hope this helps someone 👍🏻
@@PlumbingDoctors whatever works best for you! 👍🏻 I also start soldering round the back. Guaranteed if it’s going to run, it’s going to run where you first touch the fitting 😂
Heat will rise as in a convection current but with a metal such as copper it conducts heat rapidly from the heat source along the fitting and tube. Great videos and very informative.@@PlumbingDoctors
Excellently explained, great help in understanding the wiring up of an Ecotec to 230 RT looking for advice on how to wire to ebus RT especially the Vaillant 350f as in the manual it's not very well explained. Many thanks
Brilliant job and video! I'm new to installing boilers but I'm only used to working on Worcester and have a vailant coming up. Thank you for uploading this 😎
Thank you for this great step by step install video. I'm an retired boiler engineer and been given a (used) nearly new Ecofit Pure 415 heat only boiler and looking get an engineer to replace my old Potterton. Do I need to use VR66 wiring centre for DHW. I want to use the OpenTherm VR33 module with maybe Daytron OT thermostat to use Load or Weather compensation.
Well done Waseem , very helpful video as always , the way you present it and explain is very good. Love to watch your videos. Im new entry Plumber and I will love to have a Mentor like you. 👏👏👏👍
Thank you very informative. I'm glad I watched this video. My fitter would have installed a bog standard Mag Filter without the Valiant protection kit and I wouldn't have benefitted from an extended warranty. 👍
It's the same as a Heatline Capriz 2 inside too. Glow worm is the same inside like you say. It's plastic inside and has an aluminium heat exchanger. Budget boiler at a higher price. Aluminium corrodes easily into the condense trap and also rots fast if inhibitor level is low. Stainless steel will not rot at all.
How much would you charge for new boilwer and putting in the eco fit pure 830 with a filter , 2 x45 degree joints for the flue and 2 meters verticall going out the roof. Chemical flush , would you do a power flush if the water is dirty but no sludge or hard parts in the radiators..
Hi, thanks for the video. What I did not understand is that you soldered the connections while pipes were connected to valves on the boiler and on isolator valves. My point is - is it safe to do that? Is heating up the valves going to damage their seals or any other rubber/plastic parts close to the soldering? Thanks.
What about the expansion vessel, doesn't the pressure in the vessel need adjusting to the system? Does the expansion vessel take care of both the central heating and the hot water production, if yes the water pressure from the mains is much higher than .75 bar that in the vessel from the factory aren’t they supposed to match each other?
hi Waseem do you ever come to Oldham to do boilers am very impressed with your video on doing boilers we have our Vaillant boiler in for 18yrs and just bought our house from housing association but i think 18yrs is long enough for a boiler please let me know cheers
aslm broth, can you show us a video or explain how to wire a wireless thermostat to a Vaillant turbo boiler please , as the wireless thermostat has live neutral no and com so how to i wire the live and neutral from the boiler please, thank you
@@PlumbingDoctors thank you , all sorted now as i was trying to wire an lightwarerf wireless thermostat with an heatlink so the boiler had only 2 wire on the old thermostat , but here i need 5 core , so i took L,N,E, from the boiler itself and no , com uses same old one , sorted thxxx
Hi my boiler needs to be replaced also new flue put in. My brother is going to do it and he watched your video. Does the boiler need to be wired to the main electric board? The electric board is old and need a new one as I've just bought my first house few wks bk so doin a re vamp lol! Loved ur video though
I'm not a gas fitter, just an end user who's reading through the installation manual. At 35:12 you solder in very close vicinity to the boiler. The manual is very insistent that you shouldn't do that and that all solder joints to the tails must be made before you connect them to the boiler. I'd welcome opinions from experienced fitters on this.
@@PlumbingDoctorsSorry, but I don't understand your reply. Are you suggesting that it's a stupid question? I'm referring to Section 7.1 on page 17 of the installation and maintenance manual.
Nice install brother. I like your wiring technique, but i always use 4 core cable on Eph thermostatic on Valliant. I always link live with Com inside receiver and it does work for me. Like your videos
Great video! Probably the nicest explained I’ve seen. Is the air separator included in the protection pack? When I look I can only see the magnetic filter?
Great work bro, never thought about turning boiler upside down! I’ve a 800 to put in tomorrow so I’ll give it a go!! Where do you get that chai from? I always get the chai latte from costa lol
I don't do it with the 800s unless im rear piping the boiler. I have a vid on how to install 800s if you haven't seen it already... The chai was made fresh by the customer 👌
great vid, if you were called to install a boiler but the customer was not willing to agree to power flush the system before hand , would you agree to the install ? even tho by default this would make the warranty invalid (I assume) and would you make note of this on the commisioning documents
@@PlumbingDoctors ok thanks mate , I have my first gas inspection visit end of the month and one of the installs I’m doing the guy doesn’t want it’s flushed so was panicking abit 😳
I have a Ecofit Sustain, my boiler keeps increasing its pressure when the heating is on, goes to over 3 bar, then when the heating stops, the boiler loses all of its pressure to 0 bars. Presenting the f22 error code. It has been doing this since Severn Trent stopped supply in the area due to emergency work.
Very pleasant video in any level. Quite informative. By the way I like how you work with gloves. Very good habit to protect. Can you tell me what brand are they. Thanks
Great work 👍The sign of a good worker,before any work starts is the dust sheeting of the customers property, well done.Also get yourself some decent grips instead of that big adjustable, knipex alligator or cobra.
This guys a legend his customers are luck to get honest geezer like this who takes pride in his work .
Thanks for the love

Respect for the comment!✅ Yes we all make mistakes and I don’t mind criticism as it helps us all grow 💪🏽
Wow this brother is the real deal. Mashallah his skill levels really are the best. Keep up the good work
Thanks bro
Just wanted to say I really dig the editing and format of your vids, music is spot on with it, thanks for putting this up, big ups
Thanks 😊
Spent 2hrs trying to find out if 24v link should be disconnected, watched your video and found the info I needed…..you’re the best dude .
Glad i could help! 👍

Very good video. When will Curtis start doing all the main bits?
He has started already but have not recorded him doing it yet
Really helpful video for this boiler 👍🏻 good work
Hi mate, just had one fitted. For some reason no matter what temperature I set the hot water on the LCD display it heats it to 80 degree Centigrade!
Dont worry about what it shows on the display that's internal temp
Hi, thanks for the video.
What I did not understand is that you soldered the connections while pipes were connected to valves on the boiler and on isolator valves.
My point is - is it safe to do that? Is heating up the valves going to damage their seals or any other rubber/plastic parts close to the soldering?
Thanks.
Yes as the washers are fibre so no damage done
36:54 - pointing at cold and saying it's hot :)
Great video very informative, someone commented about the music, I say what is wrong with instrumental music? It goes well with the video.
Great video job very well done👊
What was the matter with the ideal boiler you took out look in good nick also you don't get the brass connectors with vaillant boilers
This vid was done a good couple months ago - I think the main HE was leaking so pressure kept on dropping
Ive been taking a lot of interest in boilers and plumbing recently. Something I wish learned when growing up. Otherwise excellent work paa ji
Fantastic job. Enjoyed 😊👍
Great video, well done.

What about the expansion vessel, doesn't the pressure in the vessel need adjusting to the system? Does the expansion vessel take care of both the central heating and the hot water production, if yes the water pressure from the mains is much higher than .75 bar that in the vessel from the factory aren’t they supposed to match each other?
Nope you never need to adjust the pressure with expansion vessel when installing a new boiler

Speed fit connections not allowed within 1 meter but can some vaillants be fitted with it
Hello brother, can the system boiler and cylinder be house separately or do they need to be housed together. Thanks for your help!
Yes is can be separate
Nice one bro..
