Mr Needs you are a true gent for posting this. I've got a few to service in a few weeks and I was going to read up on the MI's as I've never done a compact service before. This has armed me fully and taken away any doubt. Thank you once again.
Nice one fella, just booked on the worcester combi fault finding course which includes the compact as more of them are coming through now, neg fan pressure been ok to date so no strip down but only a matter of time. i have to say not as bad as i feared after watching this, when you first take the case off it is a daunting site as it realy is COMPACT!!!!. thanks again keep em coming.
many thanks pal.i too have a few like this to do and trying to learn from out the manual .its terrible.not enough information.this is very straight forward now ive been shown. thanks
Thanks for sharing. They aren't the easiest boiler to access. The last LPG one I did the air/gas valve flappy bit of rubber was shot to bits so I replace that to now.
Great video I've also been lucky enough not to do a full strip down on them yet but only a matter of time looks fairly handy compared to greenstar them baffles can be a pig to get out, wondering do you order a service kit for this model and all seals etc in it or all individually great video man fair play 👍
Excellent video Geoff , I would love to find where to get that tool as I've been using some metal banding , not ideal but does the job.... cheers.......👍
Nice video. Actually I've a couple of customers that are due the above works. Never done them before but definitley feel alot more confident. Just spoken to WB. they actually said that gaskets don't normally require replacing?? I'll always go on the side of caution. Excellent video. Now that kebab heat excahnger👌😂
I use a mirror or run my hand around the joints as I have previously used a gas sniffer and found they will pick traces of gas around seals on alot of boilers even new ones.
Lee it's a gas sniffer yes, as far as I am aware it detects more than just natural gas. So it can be used to check for leaking fumes in this instance. I believe the one being used in this video is an Anton gas detector.
Dear Santa, Can you fix it for me to be apprentice to Mr G Needs?! I promise to be good as long as possible and eat my greens too. 🤣 Cracking job you do on RU-vid sharing your knowledge, I doff my cap in your general direction, your accent ain't that bad either.....
sadly to many engineers putting FGA in and calling that a service for £30... hard to compete offering a proper service as when you say "new burner seals" or the price of a full service.. your just a RIP OFF as the last guy serviced it for £30
