keep them coming Allen, I'm 15 yrs in and still learning. your videos are FAB! I've got my apprentice watching them on here. keep it up mate - you're doing a sterling job.
Started the plumbing from 16 when I left school I’m now 19 by next year June I’ll be fully gas qualified. One of the best decision I made learning the trade and your videos are a big help ❤️
Why on earth would someone call this a "total nonsense" "service and expect a customer to decide what's appropriate. Roy demonstrated best practice and most definitely what was needed here.
Very well explained!just a query!we can adjust burner pressure on this gas valve.I came across another type of gas valve which is closed and had tape at front.similar boiler.didnt know where to adjust it.please advise.but very informative video as always.thanks
Hi Allen and Roy will you be doing a rig of old boilers at viva training ie baxi solo/105,turbo max etc to strip and service on there new rig there putting together? Great video 👍
hi. i've got a 105HE on LPG wont light. Burner is clean, great spark but suspect pilot jet either blocked or the solenoid not opening, how can i clean the pilot jet ?
I know the clamps and seals around the flue go on these. Can you try and find a leak with your analyer whilst in combustion chamber? Or would that not work as the burner would be right underneath it? Thanks
One of the Worcester trainers I know always refers to servicing theirs boilers as being performance analysis checks as they don't always require strip downs.
Worcester can sometimes set on fire, Always worth checking the seal as a minimum and depending on the age I would advise full strip-down service, Thanks.
@@E14Art You would always need to take the case off on all boilers, Some manufacturers will say when the burner itself needs stripping down, These sometimes change as some manufacturers have had issues with seals melting. Thanks.
@@AllenHart999 I said this to the Worcester instructor. He said don't take the case off. I do anyway but the original poster is correct. Worcester definitely tell you not to take case off unless you have to.
Great video thank you I'd love to do the course to become one . Question ......I've recently had issue with getting hot water to stay hot . It can often get luke warm or even ice cold .it's a baxi 80he similar to that you're working on (assuming 105 model ) central hearing is hot . All rads are free from air. And yes I know the heating is separate from the hot water as such. Hejve the exchanger/diverter . I'm trying to figure out what's going on . Often I may need to run 2 taos to activate hot water (flame ignition) downstairs hot water tap is best in the house (maybe as its closest but unsure ) the other day we just about run a bath but wasn't hot for our boys but later had it piping hot (upstairs ) I've had to run both sink and over hrad shower taps to get a shower (I turn sink tap off once warm/hot) . Thanks in advance I'm thinking heat exchanger and or diverter cartridge? Or a flow regulator ? Thanks
The rear insulation panel, do you have to remove the primary hex, or can you get it in just by removing the burner, as i dont wanna try and get connections/pipes out of primary hex as its probably seized in lol
105 e baxi cust have hw intermittent issue ,checked everything while i am there it works but after few days later cust rings up and says having same problem. adjusted burner pressure , ntc ok , pin coming out every single time, heating is fine no issue , what else i shld look for ?? TIA
Allen I’ve watched your ACS exam video , great video including this , but with revision respect what would you advice to revise on the most for the acs exam? I’m sitting mine in a month and kind of worrying a bit 😂 once again great content
Total nonsense you don’t need to strip it down on a service, unless the customer requests a full strip down, you will get all customers thinking this is a normal service

Good luck in the future and thank you for watching.
Great video Allen, excellent info from Roy,
Always something to learn .. keep them coming
Maybe more videos on fault finding
Thanks for the video, any chance of doing a full service video on a back boiler please?
Best UA-cam channel
That was very helpful Allen.❤ keep it coming. Roy is a legend.
Why on earth would someone call this a "total nonsense" "service and expect a customer to decide what's appropriate. Roy demonstrated best practice and most definitely what was needed here.
Thank You
Very informative video keep up the videos Allen and Roy
Great video and well detailed.
Any idea where I can buy the black test adapter you use in the video shown at around 18:42??
not sure
Is there a video for replacing the insulation panels?
I'd probably do an fga test first and check air inlet. Gives you an idea of condition and if flue seals are ok before doing a strip down service.
Amazing video allen, roy thankyou for sharing your knowledge, viva much appreciated 👍
Great content yet again

Another excellent video from a top trainer
Hi Roy, great video. where can I purchase a gas test adapter for use with my manometer please?
Hi Mark, The one I use is available from Norast.com. Regards Roy
@@royfugler9971 thanks Roy
Hi Roy
Just newly qualified how do I get the boiler into service mode.
we will do a video. Thanks.

Good morning,
Mine question is: If the minimum gas pressure is too low it could
cause the boiler to lock out during operation?
Thank you
Great video again can you ask him where I can get the extension adaptor for the u gauge hose onto the gas valve .cheers

@@AllenHart999 I always analyse the seals, just mentioning what he told me, that'll only really count for first few services from new
Worcester themselves tell you not to take the case off.
You check the fan pressure. If that's within the limits that's it.
That's the actual MI's.

Hello, on bithermic boilers when I take the hot water the pump does not start, must it be like this?
Thank you
Quality lads quality efforts
The rear insulation panel, do you have to remove the primary hex, or can you get it in just by removing the burner, as i dont wanna try and get connections/pipes out of primary hex as its probably seized in lol
Not the easiest job to do tbh.
I LOVE PLUMBER
I am FOND OF PLUMBER JOB
105 e baxi

Sometimes a partially blocked ventury at the fan can cause this when on high fire/hot water.
Maybe worth giving it a bit of a clean.
@@matttate9155 thanks alot mate
Hello Allen
What do you consider to be the best solvent weld on the market for joining condensate pipe joints.?
Any recommendations ?
Allen I’ve watched your ACS exam video , great video including this , but with revision respect what would you advice to revise on the most for the acs exam? I’m sitting mine in a month and kind of worrying a bit 😂 once again great content
ventilation!!
Roy. Do you not remove the fan and hood when servicing these? Thanks
Hi Greg, I only remove the fan if the boiler is particularly dirty. Regards Roy
Good video
First class Roy !!!!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍interesting
I like that a proper service NOT A FGA service
❤❤❤
Hi first comment? I think-
Total nonsense you don’t need to strip it down on a service, unless the customer requests a full strip down, you will get all customers thinking this is a normal service
What does it say in the installation instructions?
