This channel is for people who are newly gas safe registered/gas apprentices and want a deeper understanding on boilers and repairs. On this channel we will do tutorial videos on how to repair and service gas boilers.
Another great video. Can you post a video installing the mini as part of a multi zone installation. Just bought a hive multizone system for my daughter and it would be helpful to see how this is installed for use in an upstairs heating zone.
If it's a soak away drain, that's really not good for the environment, standard drain it's okay, personally I would just fit a new plate and have old plate recycled. Plus it a lot safer, did you hear him cough due to the flumes 😷
Hi Mate, why do you do a link? ive got a potterton combi boiler, im thinking of doing the hive myself but looking at your video and others, everything the same apart from the link? could you please explain the reason for the link. Thank you
IMPORTTANT: Do not overtighten all nuts where pins run through, as pins would get stuck and the boiler won't work and will give low pressure/faulty pump error. Apart from this, great video, thank you!
Have a Nest and want to link it up to a Vaillant eco tech 635 system boiler but already have a Honeywell board installed with loads of wires so don't know where to start. Could get someone to do it but i love to do these kinds of jobs myself and learn along the way.
Instead of this I just soldered onto the backs of the existing lights to hijack power from them (and retain the existing switch functionality) and ran to the strips from them, and removed the lamps from those two lights so just the strips produce light now.
Top video, I struggled to get mine to connect. Hive were less than useless, wasted hours trying to pair up components. After watching this video. Sorted in ten minutes.
Really informative video, I checked my diaphragm and it looks ok but 6 out of my 7 hot taps start the boiler the other one doesn’t push the pin out far enough to close the microswitch , also 2 out of 3 of my showers are the same, any ideas?
If the waterways within this heat exchanger are blocked can you clean them better by taking it off? Somebody told me you could even try to pressure wash it
Hi we have this boiler and were getting hot water but no heating, put new automatic wireless thermostat thinking it was that put still wont start up unless in engineers mode what do you think is wrong 🤔
Thank you very much for this video, incredibly useful. I have a vaillant ecotec pro 24, and a nest thermostat 3rd gen. The one thing I did differently was not to remove the u shaped wire link on "Burner off" connector. It then worked like a charm. I must say, am not sure I understand why
Hi Did you ever make a video on taking 'the right hand block' out? (water pump?) My flow sensor is not coming out for love nor money, and as you have shown - access to it is not great. I've bought the tool but all it's doing now is slipping on the brass top of flow sensor. Thanks
