We don't have oil burners here in Texas so it was nice seeing your video on how it works. Your video skills are next level for sure. Thanks for the video.
Riello burners are a high end burner, when set up right ,serviced regularly either gas or oil they will work properly, nothing wrong with a direct vent set up. Good job on that one Steve
Nice one, Steven. The kneeling doesn't bother me but bothers some customers with bad knees. I have a couple customers who made me take their knee pad. They kept telling me, you need a pad. I'm like, why not. It does help. Baby taking a personal day. She earned it.
i personaly do not have a issue with my knees . at all so i do not think of it unless i am doing a lot of cralling in a crall space then i will use the knee pads only makes good sence
Steve great job on this buddy. You're becoming a great cameraman. You should make your own movie based on burners and boilers and call it "Make New Mama"
Have you ever had a solenoid cable breakdown I am from England and have a nuway burner changed the controller nozzle filters pump but it appears the solenoid is not powering up ?
Hmm, I would be inclined to come up with a way of burning the waste oil in that "Twin Turbo Double Gundy Incineration Station" you have out in your yard.... Ya know... the more BTUs the better right?
Nice job Steve!... I tried to bleed my Riello 40 F5 by jumping 5 & 6 but the motor didnt run like it did here. I assume now from seeing this video, its cause the boiler wasnt calling for heat?
yes turn up the tstat and if the boiler is calling for heat it will run .and you can shut it off at service switch on boiler . to work on it . 5&6 will just run motor so you can blead it good with out it shutting off
What the heck was that , steve , a pressurized replacement charge , like co2 , never seen one before like that , is it specific to blow out plugged lines , this guy has every tool in the book.
Yes that is a co2 purge tool, they are available in any HVAC supply house. Don't go to home Depot or other box stores looking for one as it would be like finding the golden ticket. If you have a HVAC supplier that is open to the public or a plumbing store surley they will be able to help you.
file one tank and it will equilize so both tanks have the same amount in them .through equilizing line between tanks the muck should end up in filter and get changed out once a year
Steve, I thought only 90+% AFUE appliances can be direct vented. So this boiler I assume is 80% correct? So is it ok in your state to direct vent 80% appliances? Btw excellent work!
no oil boilers have direct vent units and are probley 86% or so effencent 80 + i believe your better off with a chimney and regular boiler in my oppion .this type of unit smell and fumes out side in that area can be a issue with a chimney the fumes get relieced up in the air less chance of smell fumes ect. i guess there is draybacks on every unit .
My old boss used to have us tilt the oil tanks we installs towards the oposite end of the valve ..so junk would plug it up.i thought I was a great idea
I would be looking for a new job if I called something like that not bade, that thing is packed with crap.but it is people who don't clean that keeps me in work.
What to do with old oil. Thats easy pour it along the fence line to keep down the weeds. Just kidding that's what we did in my day change the oil in the car old diesel fuel Port along the fence line to keep down the weeds of course we recycle it now take it to your local auto parts store they'll take it
Steve.... All that healthy cooking is not going to help you walk better when your knees go out!!! Where's your knee pads? I get mine from the dollar store. If ya don't have the cash.... I send ya a pair! lol
Good for you buddy!! I tell my wife all the time..... sucks getting old! I think if I wore the pads years ago.. getting out of bed not be as bad today! lol... Love the ending of this vid! Good job!!

Good service call Steve

Surprise you did not use the carburetor cleaner as you have shown us.
Fuel oil makes a great solvent too!
Nice work brother! Next level!
Hi Steve yOu sure know your stuff good job enjoyed your video thanks
thanks for watching
looks like you are starting to get some heating calls already
so if an oil company filles one tank all the junk will get pushed into another tank?
file one tank and it will equilize so both tanks have the same amount in them .through equilizing line between tanks the muck should end up in filter and get changed out once a year
just wondering what might have plugged that right side line?
Friends don't let friends have direct vent oil burners.
Have you had to take care of an oil furnace that had puff back?
sure all the time

at 8:30, you have a friend in the background climbing up the wall!
I keep a 15mm socket/ratchet and an extension in my tool bag specifically for getting those damned nuts off that clean out door on the Odyssey boilers
to keep your hands clean the same reason i wear them my self
My old boss used to have us tilt the oil tanks we installs towards the oposite end of the valve ..so junk would plug it up.i thought I was a great idea
Holy crap thats one rocket motor
Thats riello man .best burners made if you know how to service then correctly
Dryer vent pipe. Is rhat legal?
It's for an outdoor air intake.
I used to work for riello in new Zealand
very good work!!!!
I would be looking for a new job if I called something like that not bade, that thing is packed with crap.but it is people who don't clean that keeps me in work.
does this guy really knows when to clean a boiler and when to change filters?
What to do with old oil. Thats easy pour it along the fence line to keep down the weeds.
Just kidding that's what we did in my day change the oil in the car old diesel fuel Port along the fence line to keep down the weeds of course we recycle it now take it to your local auto parts store they'll take it
I will bet that Condenser Coil is full of Exhaust Soot.
not to sure about that the boilers runs lean and clean

Steve.... All that healthy cooking is not going to help you walk better when your knees go out!!! Where's your knee pads? I get mine from the dollar store. If ya don't have the cash.... I send ya a pair! lol

Good for you buddy!! I tell my wife all the time..... sucks getting old! I think if I wore the pads years ago.. getting out of bed not be as bad today! lol... Love the ending of this vid! Good job!!
