Hi Allen I would like to become a gas engineer but I don’t know where I can do my training course I live in south west London. I don’t have any background plumbing. Did my house of new shower rooms and toilet also I did for my girlfriends house tiling in new toilet house. I need your advice thank you
Allen just watched your video and noticed when the electrician was talking about his test it looked like the gas meter had no bracket yet it had an anaconda feeding it to the ecv and lead off the out let did you remove the lead for fixed pipework as per regs ?
@@AllenHart999 Allen apologies its In bs6400 clause 8.2.7.2 so it's not a regulation its advisory so my apologies It says that a meter shall be supported so as to restrict movement and I was not being funny but an anaconda and a lead outlet dose not restrict movement just my opinion did not mean to offend I just remove the lead and repipe with rigid pipework if I come across a meter with no bracket Kind regards
Thank you for your inspirational video. Having completed 24 years military service at the age of 45. (Still fit and healthy, have another 60 years in me!) This is my resettlement training choice. Gas Safe registration once complete will be a fantastic achievement and I hope, will provide a foundation for entry level employment and a bright future in the civilian world. Where I can still contribute to society and hopefully supplement my military pension. Thank you once again!
I loved the drawing at 42:40 :) But seriously, stop saying sorry because of your drawing. You helps us beginners a lot. your videos are gold. Thank you
This is a fantastic installation from start to finish. From the first minute when you see the carpet covered to commission. Great job,this is how boilers should be fitted
This is a excellent installation, customers should watch a video like this to see why you have to pay more for a proper job....a £1200 conversion is £1200 for a reason
a good tip Allen is when servicing these boilers and others like them, I find it good to have a squirt of leak detection fluid on the main burner seal, You would be surprised how many bubble!
Cheers Allen, im 16 years old and an apprentice. i reckon beacuse im a girl the lads i work with aren't explaining things properly since they favour the other male apprentice so this is really helpful, thanks again!
Hi Allen, super video as usual, which I have watched right until the end. It would be useful to see what you do when/before quoting for a boiler....for example attending the property checking water flow rates, gas pressure/flow checks location of boiler etc etc. Thanks again and take care. Ivan
Can't believe Spirotech would get funny about you cutting up one of their products. I work in product development and we always get hold of our competitors products and analyse them in great detail.
Allan I'm not a boiler but I'm clued up with it and I work in the building trade and your videos are very well explained really inspirational take me bk when I left school my work experience was plumbing always wanted be one I would of loved to have an apprenticeship with you fair play mate very well explained
Sad fond memories of fitting those Potterton Profiles Prima f's Suprimas and all the fans pcbs that I fitted in them for years after. Great video Alan👍😀
I’m an apprentice that does Installs all the time and I can never get my head around how the fellas I work with do it, this video was really useful for me. Thanks Allen! Hope you are staying safe!
Hi Alan and thanks for the great work, I've been watching your videos for quite some time and always get back if in doubt of something, I'm doing more or less the same steps as you've shown here. The one thing I haven't installed so far would be the RV2 Air Separator, maybe sometime in the future. Thanks again and keep up these very informative videos!
Hi Alan, been watching your videos for a while and did my research in getting a new combi boiler installed. We also had a gravity-fed system with tanks in the bedroom and loft. Now we have an Ideal Atlantic 30kw and it's great. No more waiting for hot water and most importantly wasting expensive gas.
Fantastic install and another very good video Allen. Love watching your you tube videos and learn so much. Don’t bother with the tv anymore! Keep up the good work!
Brilliant video Allen 🔥, superbly explained and very informative, especially your reasoning for installing the combi boiler. Looking forward to seeing the next video 🌟👊
Great video Allen. Your down to earth instruction and easy going manner make watching and learning from you a joy. Can you do a video where you change a boiler from ov to a sealed pressurised system. That would be great thank you.
@@AllenHart999 thanks for the reply mate. I was after an install that has had a new boiler installed and converted to sealed. Still has the cylinder on ov just the heating side pressurised.
lovelly jubbly job allen brilliant to see done every bit carried out p[rofessionally from cementing of flue to fill in space from old flue diameter to even putting plastic black condensate bracket over connsate protective inulation , great to see, id like to ask allen who inspects your work ,? ha ha ha i remember ghas inspectors jamie tenant edinburgh etc could turn up on any occassion un expected but usually booked 3 jobs that youve done , good man was mr tenent great bloke always gave advice and made sure you gave correct answers he wouldnt fail you unless you were really really bad top man ,
Allen Hart haha.. blinking hope it’s me 😂😂 all good mate, look forward to our next video together, install next 😉 and bring on September, go easy Allen catch up soon I hope
Great job Alan ,so many cowboys about these days . Did have a look at that air separator. Think it's curing a problem that does not exist on pressure systems ,If a pressure system that has been correctly installed and commissioned is giving up air constantly then it probably has a leak somewhere . I always thought it unnecessary for boilers to have auto air vents which are problematical as well .The Dutch boiler manufacturer Intergas just had a manual vent placed at the top of the boiler which worked fine .Have you come across them only 4 moving parts The water heats via a coil similar to the instantaneous multi point water heaters of old . I watched the video to the end also The best always cost s bit more but most of the time it's money well spent!
really good content allen every day can be a school day as there is always someone or something crops up and deal with it there and then i suppose to a certain degree there is no right or wrong way but the end result is the same
This excellent video I wish in future to show us how did you linked flow and return when you did remove a cylinder and how you did linked water main with others pipe
If you are installing an unvented cylinder above the highest outlet on the system. You should install, an anti-vac valve. Some Worcester cylinders have them incorporated on the combination valve. The cylinder can implode, due to siphonage. as your man stated. The valve should be installed on the outlet pipe. Allowing air to enter the system. This disrupts the siphoning. Due to negative pressure in the cylinder. The anti-vac valve opens, enabling air to enter, the system. I hope this info makes sense?
@@AllenHart999 Hi Allen, this message, was meant for one of your other posts. The one regarding the unvented cylinder, that had imploded. Due to insufficient water supply. It must have jump. As your video ended. Sorry if you found it confusing!
We always try to reduce the ammount of pipes that need to run on the outside of the house, ( cosmetic reasons along with practical ) especially the condense pipe due to possible freeze and boiler shut down, there is always somewhere to run it internally
Hiya Allen. How do you work out how much expansion is required in a heating system. As in do they spec in boiler manufacturers instructions how much there ev can cope with. Is it square literage as would you measure that beforehand. You could put so many gadgets on couldn’t you descaler , magnet. Mini shock arrester cold water filter. External expansion vessel. Ever fit them all. I love the idea with full ball iso valves on pipes to. 👍 😊. Harry.
Excellent video thanks Allen 👍 can you do video on quoting sometime please . I have been asked to quote for plumbing and heating on an extension. 2 bathroom 1 utility 1 toilet 1 kitchen plumbing 1 boiler 7 extra rads . I don’t have a clue where to start . Any tips ?
Great video, well done. What is the name of that part that cover/isulate the flue pipe? 26:40 is it a flue liner? Or should I use a superfoil pipe wrap? And then decorate arround with plasterboard...
Yes I watched it until the end, another great video. I'm not complaining but maybe a little concerned, with your work during the day the videos in the evening, your mobile hoping, when do you sleep????
Great improvement, but should we really still be swapping out hot water tank systems for combis when heat pumps are the future, in 5-10 years you'll be putting a tank back in?
Detest combi boilers! Give me a tank any day. Modern pressurised cylinders are in another league to any miserable combi, both in terms of performance and overall user experience. Fortunately many developers finally seem to understand that combis are not great in family homes and are installing megaflo type systems now. Sadly, too many homeowners don't realise the drawbacks of combis until it's too late and the things are already installed. Every single property I have owned or lived in with a combi has had issues with it. Needless to say I rip them out now as a priority when doing a refurb.
So let me get this right, you doing a refurb right and the young lad working with you says, hey boss there's a brand new Vitodens 200-W in the airing cupboard and you reply... Get that dirty stinking combi boiler on the skip now... But boss it's brand new... I don't care if it's gold plated son, it's a combi, skip NOW 😂
Hi I've just started watching your video's, I'm due to have my gas fire back boiler replaced for a combi in the coming weeks. I'm so worried about this because the hot water tank is in the living room and obviously the boiler will have to be relocated, and as I live here and can't move out I just overwhelmed by the thought of the work moving my belongings around. Anyway great video's.
Could you not just put a heat trace down the condensate with out door temp sensor? Surely it would work aswell if not better than that expensive lagging you use and the kit you need for it.. You always do a quality REAL WORLD job (unlike the polished pipe jobs people post) Keep up the good work and stay safe.. Bradford
Is there an advantage to using 22mm tee with end cap on the flow and return? I always use 22mm - 15mm drain off and connect to that. I guess advantage with the 22mm tee used in this video is that you can then use 22mm hose when flushing? Anyone got view on this finer point of installation in this vid. Great and informative video BTW. Cheers.
Hi Allen great vid very informative , one question i know it's practice to run the condensate pipe to the soil stack it makes me feel a bit uneasy because health and safety implications . One that soilpipe smells can go back into the house and two if the drains block up the condensate will just add to the problem and also soul waste may even back up the pipe in a worse case scenario.
Great Video Alen, I am constantly learning new thing watching your videos. Which helps will studying for my level 2 and hopefully level 3. I'm a bit confused with the OCP order? So open vent/ cold mains then pump?
