LEEDS PLUMBER - COMBI BOILER INSTALLATION - BAXI 830

[@benhannan8813]

Allen really enjoyed that video! I’m starting my gas course soon and you have given me a great insight so thank you.

[@colinfleming2244]

Agree about pipework can't always make a silk purse out of sows ear. We do the best we can with what we got to work with. Most important thing is its safe and it works

hi allan regarding ptfe tape around olives i sometimes do the same i find that these days the olives are so hard that they don't bite into the copper pipe, much prefer copper olives.good vids

Thank you for watching.

Good honest gas/heating installation work, going the extra mile on a Saturday.

[@AllenHart999]

Thanks.

[@stocksy7286]

Hi Allen, excellent tutorial, do you do installations within the Leeds vicinity?, I’m thinking of upgrading mine so it will be a straight swap like the one in your video,mi live within a 15 mile radius of Leeds, Thanks Mick.

Did you have to change the arrow direction of the magnetic filter because the return comes from up please, me still training ??

[@Ommegamann]

Hi Allen, Excellent video, would you recommend the Baxi830 is it possible to give a rough idea on a fittted price? if not the Baxi do you favour any other model?

[@AllenHart999]

Really depends what is needed. Thanks

[@charliecaparros1044]

How much normally for a labour fee to change the boiler.. many thanks

[@lemmondee727]

Hi Allen . I’m a new gas engineer, one think that we don’t learn at school is pricing . How much did you price for this job ?

[@AllenHart999]

I am on with my next video now, I will do a video on quoting, look out for it. Thanks.

[@UndisputableFact]

Great informative vid as always Allen thanks. You can tell you really know what your're doing and have the customer's interests at heart. Do you think these boilers would be alright for underfloor heating in a small house?

[@AllenHart999]

Our pleasure!

[@samuelbeckett485]

Would you not clean the pipes on the filter (getting the paint off)

[@AllenHart999]

As long as it doesn’t leak it doesn’t really matter. Thanks.

Would you travel to Bolton for work?

Allen, how are you?

[@AllenHart999]

Very well thank you. 👍

[@mikebarron4929]

Good on you Allen its refreshing that your showing real world jobbing work .yes its nice to see polished pipework and perfect bending etc but its not always possible due to time restraints and having to keep the rest of your customer base content its all a compromise usually. just how much time you can spend on the job depends on the price you submit and the expectations of the customer .love the videos beats tv hands down

[@AllenHart999]

This needed doing as quickly as possible. Thanks for watching.

[@imranmajid1978]

You did what the client requested in a safe and professional manner - good on you sir, excellent video!

[@paullyons4624]

Great video great install as always. Shame you have to explain yourself at the end tbh you’ll never please everyone but most of us live in the real world.

[@AllenHart999]

Thank you.

[@corbs07]

Any reason why you didn’t clean the paint off the pipe first before using press or compression (Just enough for the joint / slightly more)

[@AllenHart999]

I removed it a bit from the press fittings, Never really bothered with compression, Never had an issue. Thanks.

[@rwgasservices6764]

This is an excellent video Allen.And as you rightly say it is a real world installation/swap. And as you rightly say you can only deal with what is put in front of you for good or for bad. So long as the boiler installation is safe and the system is as clean as possible that is all that matters. Too many people in this industry are very critical when an installation is not an oil painting,and they are wrong. I wish my business got more work like that one. Keep up the good work Allen and I will see you again soon.

[@Marcus_PG]

I'm going to be having an 830 installed and i thought the box right at the start had 830 on it. Is there much difference anyone between the 800 and the 830? Thanks

[@AllenHart999]

800 is the range, and 830 is the model in that range. I hope that makes sense to you. Thanks.

[@ram64man]

Baxi really should update the 800 , to make it a leader in the market , effectively the default go to, recommendations , all models variants 10 step modulation down to3.5kw , regardless of kw sizing. Hot water model only so those trying to not spend to much can disable the heating system completely if they want to such as in summer so low heating minimum temp can be disabled , or wish to use it in a hybrid environment with a air or ground source heat pump , and get rid of the analog old school look with smart display / interactive thermostat with weather comp and low pressure warnings

[@martinhall9074]

As a plumber/gas engineer myself for the last 22 years your work is very neat and tidy. The press fit fittings look nice and have a nice finish. At least some of us still have some pride in our work. Great channel! Subscribed. 👍

I take it, if you're getting a new boiler, and they don't do a flush they are not doing there job right? What if the system is clean anyway?

[@rayc1503]

Baxi 800's a nice range of boilers I've fitted a few. 3 have been with verticals. Great as per usual Allen, keep up the great tutorials. To anyone who's not gas safe registered, DON'T WORK ON GAS. 😁

Good job mate, most customers want hot warter and heat not nice new pipe work. Lee

[@YoutubeHero666]

if the client wanted to have all the pipe work pretty then they have to pay more. Most just want it as cheap as possible and don't care as long as it works. Allen could have spent another 3 hours making it look pretty but would the client want to pay... Great video really enjoy watching what you put out for us Allen.

No criticisms here Alan, if I wanted my mechanic to replace my brake pads, I’d be pretty unhappy if he took it upon himself to replace the engine for no particular reason. You did a nice job of exactly what the customer asked you to do.

Top job Allen, as always. I have the baxi 830, brilliant boilers. As an enthusiast i was very interested in my install and was very tempted to watch the engineers at work but i was very conscience that they might not like me hovering over them and kept out of their way. Allen how do engineer feel about customers watching them work? I dont suppose you can do a vid on that?

[@AllenHart999]

Thanks.

[@jamboSAFC]

Its a pain in the arse, sometimes a job can go the wrong way and its stressful enough with out someone hovering over your shoulder

Could you help me, I just bought the boiler baxi 830 from local agent.how do I know I bought baxi830 or not?

Surprised you didn’t remove the paint from the pipes before making your connections mate. Thought you might not get 100% seal or possible issues in the future.

Hi mate, I’ve had a new Baxi 800 installed a few days ago and I have a small issue with it in regards to the psi raising when the water is turned on. Water is around 50°c or less close to min level and so is the heating. Boiler starts flashing 125 with the pressure raised. Any suggestions?

Hi Allen, i have a baxi duo-tec, howeber it takes forever to heat water, it's around 3 years old, and is serviced annually, is it worth replacing it with a baxi 800 or an ideal logic c30? Or is there a possible reason for this? My mum has an ideal logic and her hot water gets much hotter and gets hot quicker, any ideas?
