As always, thanks for watching, all the support is greatly appreciated

Sad for anyone that lives in an area that Floods, my Heart goes out to them. Winter is always a killer for our Trade, if you’re not freezing, you’re soaked to the skin. Always overworked too!! A 14hour day is not uncommon & then we panic when Spring comes around??!!!.......An old Boss of mine said to me about 48 years ago; ‘This Trade is, and always will be, a Famine or a Feast’. Which, in my experience, always, always been the case. Great content as always Tom, you captured the mood of the job & how depressing these types of jobs are. Thanks mate👍👍

Working in those conditions looked pretty dreadful - I think you deserved a drink, or several, after that, especially after moving the new and old boilers on your own! Must be terrible to be flooded like that - I bet they are glad to get the heating back on. Thanks for another interesting video.

Great video as usual. Could you just explain about the zine valve on the return for venting.
@PlumbLikeTom
@PlumbLikeTom 8 месяцев назад
Because the vent is taken off the primary flow, you need to put the valve on the return to keep the path to vent, no valve should be installed on a pipe that feeds a vent, it will still shut the circuit off with the valve on the return, but the boiler is still able to vent

Hi Tom, a nice boiler swap there but not in the best conditions, it’s no fun when you are cold and wet. Worcester continues on their downwards spiral, sad to say another once good manufacturer going to the wall. Hope the rest of the job when as planned for you, so you could quickly get home. Another great film thank you Tom. Have a great week and as always, take care. 👍👍👍

When you mentioned the boiler been completely flooded by sewage water and you working on it without gloves our Tom 😷😷😷. I know it's easier and quicker working in normal circumstances without protective gloves, but this instance the protective gloves are a must. Mrs Tom will not be pleased 😂.

Great video Tom, as a chippie I see you using loctite and jetblue, does it come apart ok years later? I remember years ago the old plumbers used putty and red lead on the bath tap threads, we had a contract to change around 50 bath taps on some bungalows around Burton upon Trent one time for a housing association and the brickies had to knock the bricks out at the back of the bathroom wall to get to the taps so that the plumber could get in with a massive pair of slisons to undo and replace them, the only way they would come apart, happy days👍
@PlumbLikeTom
@PlumbLikeTom 8 месяцев назад
It comes apart just fine, I took the fittings out the old boiler without any issues or without using any great force, sometimes you may need a little heat especially on iron pipe. That is one reason I won't use that rapid blue stuff, apparently you can't separate it without heat, thanks for watching as always mate

Thanks for the support mate, you can't beat the old boilers, people won't be able to afford a new one soon when the gas boiler tax comes, from January there is a stealth tax been added on them to cover the heat pump grants

It's a massive con mate, they have snuck it through parliament, the average Worcester, if the rumours are true will be £360 more expensive on January the 1st due to the tax, all to pay for the heat pump scheme
