Another nice neat installation waseem That’s a good job!! I like your nice neat soldering work! I won’t use pressfit, I also like that you use silicon grease it makes it for easier future work , people don’t use grease On the flu elbow sockets ,they push them in dry and it folds over the O-ring seals creating leaks ,it only takes a second to rub your finger around the joints with grease. I normally use a magnetic scale reducer on the cold inlet.

@PlumbingDoctors 3 года назад

I don't use press fit tools and never used it before but maybe in the future as there are benefits to it. I use silicone grease on all rubber parts as like you said it will crack or leak in the future of you leave dry. I used to fit scale reducers in hard water areas but I'm not confident that they even do much so i prefer to fit the large water softener devices with properties with hard water

@omugz9444 2 года назад

This is my favourite boiler, i feel the designers at baxi really gave installers and breakdown engineers what we wanted. I just wish they gave a little more room to the left side of the wiring connections, some of us have fat fingers but i also dont like having to strip away excess cable sheathing (white flex), the worry is sometimes when lifting the panel up if i might catch the wires... i am sure i am not the only installer who has thought this....

Hi, I'm still doing my course, my question is return pipe comes from up, so did you have to change the arrow direction of the magnetic filter from up to down please? And why do you fit isolation valve on the cold feed to the boiler as it already have one on the boiler? Thanks and very appreciate your work

Does the fitting template give you an option to mark the wall if you wish to have the horizontal flue exiting the wall to either the left and right not just the rear or is it a case of having to measure and mark the wall yourself?

@PlumbingDoctors 2 года назад

On the template there is a centre line in the middle of flue which you can use to manually draw a straight line to either left or right to figure out the centre

Great video, so do you just use that V2 stuff for the compression parts when piping up the boiler? Which pipes have a washer? Is it just the return and cold feed filling loop part?

@PlumbingDoctors 3 года назад

All pipes have fibre washers on the connection with the boiler but i only use the V2 (Jointing Compound) on the olives on hot and cold pipes as I've had them leak a few times but since using the compound never had a leak! Hope that helps you 👍🏻

Thanks mate, really enjoyed your video. One or two wee criticisms, great to see you Paste all your compression joints, but you should only Paste the top of the Olive. What you did will restrict the Olive from compressing on the Tube. A bent saddle would look more professional on the Return under the boiler. Get your bending machine out fella!!

@bikeman123 Год назад

My Baxi 800 cycles on and off every 3 minutes while heating up to the roomstat temp. Switching the pump between the 3 speeds makes little difference. Likewise changing the flow temp made no difference, left it at 55 degrees. Why is it turning on and off so frequently and why is it on 50% of the time? It's no cheaper to run than my old boiler. I have a well insulated modern 3 bed semi.
