How wonderful , not well , obviously saddened he couldn’t get back to work but uses his time to teach others , that’s a good guy. Here’s to you returning to health and work but most important of all health 🙏🏻
Many thanks Mr Ideal and Allen, great video appreciate the depth and work that has gone into the content. The science is pretty straight forward, but it shows if it can happen given the right circumstances it will.
Brilliant. As always there's so much packed into the short video. As you said before if you don't understand how it works you're going to struggle. Your tutorials do what so many others don't. They explain the process from start to finish. I always learn something new from watching your videos.
Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge. For someone like me whos also had 4years off work due to ill health, getting back out there is hard and your videos are helping no end. Hope things improve for you mate
Thank you Alan for connecting with Mr Ideal to explain the "noisy" boiler. The diagrams and explanation were great and helped me understand what could be occuring with my boiler. Recently I have had building work in the same area as the boiler so it is likely that my boiler has sucked in the building dust so I need to get it serviced & cleaned ASAP. Ps: all the best to Mr Ideal as he recovers
Thanks Mr Ideal and Allen. Very useful video and this is what I needed to know for my Ideal Logic 24 boiler. Occasional vibrating noise with F2 fault code. Speedy recovery Mr Ideal.
Great to see you back Mr Ideal. I always learn something from your vids , thankyou for taking the time to make them and share your in depth product knowledge . I hope that your health situation improves , take care. Best. J
Thank you both for sharing the knowledge. I look after a lot of Ideal exclusives/ Atlantic’s in east London & this is a very common problem. They are very sensitive to debris buildup & also susceptible to the condense traps blocking up.
Get well mr ideal man your videos are great hope you can still make a few more for us very informative even for people who have been doing it for years.top man and you Allen
Hope your back on your feet soon Mr Ideal, excellent video. There are so many of these Ideals out there it’s worth getting them right, can see at least one day when I’m busy.
mate again golden content, I work on ideals a lot and have had the reverberation on the fans on 30kw ESPs quite a bit, will be checking the injectors from now on, keep up the class education pal it's invaluable
Thanks Alan for connecting with Mr Ideal who explained, with some great visuals, what could be causing the vibrating sound in my Ideal 30 boiler. As I am in the middle of some building works near the boiler, it all makes perfect sense so I need to get it serviced & cleaned ASAP. Ps: All the best to Mr Ideal for a complete return to good health
Definitely. I’d be more confident going to a logic that has a L2 or F2fault. At least I would have a starting position. I hope Mr Ideal gets better soon.
I really enjoyed this video, and found it really informative, thank you for sharing your valuable knowledge, the drawings were really clear and really helped me to understand, I hope you are keeping well, have really benefited from all the logic videos.
Wish good health Mr Ideal, happy to see you back in this channel, very informative. ALAN please can you make a play list of Mr ideal man's video, I have been looking for his previous video very difficult to find from so many, just a request if possible.
Have had a few of these and this describes the fault and the remedy perfectly. Proper servicing and not poke n goes is key... As always prevention better than cure!
Nicely explained mr ideal.hope you get well soon, had a couple of these boilers with the spot welds broken on the burner. Makes one hell of a rattling noise. due to ignition failing and explosive ignition. I’m not sure if you have already covered that fault but it’s an Expensive repair .
Great video so glad he’s back there loads of logics on my patch. Hope he gets better soon and returns to work and gets back to full health. Keep the videos coming
Keep doing the vids mate. It’s hard to learn technical knowledge without working for a boiler maker. Technical will tell you what to test ect but not give you a technical video like this 👍👍👍
Mr ideal hope you get better mate, as its blokes like you we need in the industry. Im going to be honest though and i find it the gas valve to be a common problem aswell, especially on the older logics,as when the methane gas hits copper, it reacts and forms copper sulphate or shale as people call it. Once it goes into the valve, it gets stuck in diaphragm causing the diaphragm to vibrate between high and low. Thats why on newer ideal models especially the logics when put into service mode it starts on SH now rather than SL to try and force the shale out of gas valve. But you are right, the callouts i get on ideals for humming noises is the venturi and outside of injectors have some dirt on them.
I had the exact same problem at the end of last year. The boiler would making farting noises when it modulated down sometimes locking out. And yes, the boiler was on a new build site still being constructed. There was a slimy build up around the injector. I've also had a spider egg sack stuck in the venturi causing the same problem.
I have an ideal logic heat 15 boiler which continuously from new over 7 years ago faulted L1 L2, and was very noisy every winter. This would happen when trying to maintain a steady heat of 21 deg in my home. I had it serviced every year and it passed all its safety checks. But the fault continued even after a new fan and many other parts were replaced unnecessarily. We were also was getting a very strong smell of rotten eggs which was making us very poorly, I didn’t know where the smell was coming from so I cleaned the sink and the drains, then replaced my washing machine dishwasher etc and yet the smell still continued. I explained all this to my gas engineer and the next day he came out to see me, contacted ideal for advice and it turned out the gas pressure going into the boiler from the meter was too high. The gas pressure to the boiler was 25mb and it had to be lowered to 21mb at the regulator, and we haven’t had any more problems, no faults and it’s so quiet now and the smell has also gone. When I complained to the gas company who have been looking after my boiler they denied everything.
Get well soon Mr Ideal. How do you clean the fans impellors? i find modern condensing boiler fans are more enclosed than old atsmospheric burners so not as easy to clean the impellor blades. Thanks
Good luck mr ideal I have a logic c24, and this video i think answers why it throws up an F2 error. It only does this error when the boiler tries to come on with a 0.5 degree increase. ie room at 20 degrees and thermostat set to 20.5. If the thermostat is set to at least 1 degree higher than room temperature it works fine no error. Maybe because of the ‘low load’ to work the 0.5 increase, it just doesn’t like it because the jet is dirty/partially blocked
I have a ideal logic 35 had the gas valve replaced it didn't show a fault code wise but said low gas check other gas appliance it now shows no fault but is still the same making g a horrendous vibration and noise it so loud ...where do I go from here ...
