  • Boiler install, Worcester 8000 boiler. Also installing a 250L unvented cylinder and all the pipework with 5 zones. Plumbing in our biggest job to date in the final week of the renovation where we have been installing all the plumbing and heating.
    The Worcester 8000 system boiler is a great bit of kit and we also install the Worcester internal diverter valve to convert the boiler into having 2 flows and 2 returns. This means we can install a direct feed to the cylinder controlled by the boiler without the need for an additional zone.
    In the this video you will see how to plan out boiler pipework for the flow and returns and how to fit a Worcester internal divertor valve on a system boiler. Another part of the video you will see how we pipe up close coupled Tees instead of installing a low lose header.
    We also plumb in 4 Honeywell zone valves with lever valves to help with future maintenance, how to run the cold feed and install the inlet control valve, how to install a potable expansion vessel, how to install a heating expansion vessel and also how we pre plumb some of the pipework for the cylinder
    We take a look at the Tesla expansion vessel Bar, Spirotech deaerator and the Worcester 28mm magnetic system filter

    Working in new-builds/heavy renovated homes feels like a relax. And everything is done service-wise, so the future maintenance is nice and easy.
    It's not an installation, it's a work of art. Beautiful job, beautiful.
    BTW, if it's early enough into the renovation I advise my clients to buy a wall-mounted cylinder. It requires thicker walls and I hang these cylinders using epoxy anchors. It has a couple of advantages: no floor space taken, easier emptying, overall easier maintenance of the whole boiler room.
    In the last one I did, I managed to install: water meter with accessories, water filters, Viessman water softener, Ariston Cares Premium System (sic!) boiler, 120l wall mounted cylinder (no need for a bigger one for this client) in a part of a toilet on a space measuring 1,7 x 0,9 m. Then my cabinetmaker made a pair of doors with mirrors, so there's literally no sign of a boiler room just a comfy toilet with two huge mirrors on one wall. When service is needed, I just open that doors and there's a fantastic access to everything.
    The one huge difference we have here is that we use distributor boxes (I don't know it's proper British plumbing name). We install one on each level of the house. From the boiler we run 1" pipes to that boxes and inside there are manifolds with separation valves for each radiator, floor heating return valves, flow regulators, emptying valves etc). It allows use to tune and service each radiator or floor heating loop independently. Of course all the additional pumps, hydraulic balancers, expansion vessels, 4-way valves are in the boiler room.

      Never seen a wall hung cylinder to be honest. I do like starting from scratch as you can plan and prepare the house to be the most efficient for heating and future maintenance 👍

      @@bluebulldog_uk It's possible that they are unavailable in the UK due to regulations. We even have square one, so they take much less space.

    Great idea from Worcester with the 4 pipe system to prioritise hot water. I’ve done it a couple of times and works very well. Great video bud

    You could put the lever valve to the left it will be pointing towards you so you don't have to take the side panel off if you need to repair the zone valve

    Very nice didn’t know the internal diverter worked off a external demand. I thought it had to be Worcester only controls ?

      Might have explained it wrong in video, head was all over place the way I was feeling 😅 hot water will be controlled by the boiler no external control
