    Boss! If someone cleans and service the way you did, will definitely have a big positive result! Because I cleaned my own Baxi very light before seeing your kind video and I saw a big difference!

    To be fair that's not the worst I've seen. Pulled those sumps out to have moon rocks come tumbling down the back of it in the past😂. Often got a telling off for my troubles for "taking too long" as you know mate. They ain't that bad to do really.

    • @bluebulldog_uk
      @bluebulldog_uk  Рік тому

      Yeah think we have both seen worse on our travels, even had it where the sump has been wrecked and even after a clean out not passing a KW rating. I think we have an advantage from being made to strip these time after time so they ain’t that bad to us but I can see how a newer gas engineer or someone who doesn’t see them often may struggle with these! Always done a top job Ben, never understood why they would track your time on jobs when you always made sure it was done right! 👍

      It’s a shame when you go to a customer that thinks they have had a boiler looked after for years and find out it’s never been done properly
