Wish I could hang around with you, that looks fun. Waiting for part 2 👏👏👏

When will you post part 2 really loved watching this, lol work never stops you gotta luv it though

I agree the best boiler Vaillant ever made. In 22 years of operation I have only changed two air pressure switches and I circuit board on my own boiler.

Thank you for filming and posting. I was with you up until you started fabricating new components, then you pressed the accelerator and went into the stratosphere. Proper old school engineering mindset. Stay strong (mentally and physically) and thank you once again👍🏾

Captivating.... Dibnah of boilers👨‍🔧

Glad to c u back on KZfaq

cracking job roll on the next dr pipes

I need to see the rest of this!! Mate this is quality stuff 🥰

Epic! I still bring boilers home (10 years in the trade) and strip them down to bare parts. I call it my post-mortem

Proper bit of engineering work. Great video. 👍

That all came apart a bit too easy for my liking, it as if you greased all the rubbers up before starting, when in the real world your swinging on the electrical pump connections with 18” Stilsons because they won’t come apart! 😂 Another good video dr pipe, keep up the good work and up the content if you could 👍🏻

Glad to see you back doctor . I think that boiler has just gained 500bhp .

Love to see you do that an an older Vaillant like the Thermocompact or even an old Sine T3.

That was an excellent to watch a video Dr pipe thoroughly enjoyed it how many guys will go to this level of workmanship Down in my area Brighton you’ll be lucky if you got the expansion vessel topped topped up with air pressure or the condense trap cleaned out most engineers to just not interested in doing it anymore what has happened to the industry!? Have you seen Mark rays video ‘vaillant boilers replaced for no reason’ It’s quite interesting to watch and you will like it

Best video I've watched this year that boiler will come up better than new when your finished meticulous work and the patience of a saint.but in all fairness those were built nice with quality components but vaillant learned their lesson later on with the rubber hose fiasco got their fingers burnt and had to revert back to the old and trusted copper flow and return pipework the only weak looking component seemed to be the heat exchanger was the green verdigris just cosmetic

Dr pipe is back

Another great video mate well done smashed it

Brilliant, love it!

Great video, its a good way for people to learn and build experience. Have you always been a gas engineer ? I was a CNC machinist and now repair and improve schools my back ground was a great place to start. Thanks for taking the time to share.

Great vid. I hope there is a part II. I got rid of my TurboMax about 3 years ago and replaced it with. Worcester Bosch Green Star. I prefer the TurboMax personally. The GreenStar DH water temp is all over the place and you have to run it quite fast to be remotely stable. I guess it's not the GreenStars fault. It has to play by different rules and try to be all eco friendly. The TirboMax went because after 18 years of reliable Service, it had 3 faults in a year. As an engineer the Bath Tub curve spung to mind and decided it was time for it to go.

12:36 no i didn't! Every days a school day in this game. One of the best combis ever made💪

🤘😎🤘

How long did that actually take you, from start to finish. Hell of a job, excellent.

I have an 837 only replaced the fan in 16 years

The expansion vessel Looks like a nightmare to replace

Clap for nhs lasted didn’t it 😂 now it’s get jabbed or get sacked. What a thickle set of people we have. Lovely vids tho mate. It’s a shame boiler manafacteurs and bosses push engineers for new boilers. Seen Worcester’s replaced because the prv had gone from lack of servicing from the same company who fitted a new boiler!! Crazy

Obviously not practical in a real world scenario but imagine if this was how we serviced all boilers - the install game would crash overnight hahaha

Lockdown did funny things to people 😂, seriously good work mate you need to find a working home for that

What was the red liquid you used to clean the components?... Thanks

Apologies for the stupid question but what's the red liquid you soaked all the metalwork in??

Complains about the neighbours whilst hes drilling and hammering this boiler apart xD

You cant beat a turbomax solid boilers

You stopped doing KZfaq dude?

I was under the impression that if a boiler was even slightly dusty it needed replacing as "its showing its age", "its beyond economical repair", "you cant get parts for this model anymore" etc. etc. It does seem funny that you seem to be wanting to restore one whereas my fathers been conned into getting two in the last 10 years. Still, he was only a pensioner......

It's a boiler not a bike that's doing the TT

Fck me doc is there nothing you cant do , jesus this thing will be better than the shite being sold now , cough worcester 😂😂😂😂 ps some commentary to explain the parts and what your doing would be much appreciated
