The guy who designed this boiler leads a complicated life

I used to be scared of these boilers but went on the worcester course and helped alot 😊

Again !!! Thank you very much for sharing your videos, they are very helpful especially for new qualified gas engineers like me..

Very helpful video on an awkward boiler thanks for posting

Great video, doing my first compact tomorrow, will be going in confident now 👍

Wicked video mate, this is the most awkward boiler, I defo needed this 👍

Excellent video i always put cling film over the pcb area

I've done full strip down service on this yesterday, pulled cables out of the fan plug as it was so seized up, ended up digging plug out, put the cables back in then socket.. Turned out other way around, E214 fault, it's a 240V supply so I was happy to see that only fan broke ;)

Good to see you in Belfast last week 👍🏻

Superb video. Very helpful 👍🏻

Fantastic thank you. You are a lifesaver

great content keep them going

PB never seems to upload anymore. Great video mate!

Thanks. Just used this to help me out way though a service :-)

Really good video thanks

Very informative, thanks

Thanks. A great help.

Thank you bro

Superb video 👍

Great video as always. Very thorough which is spot on :) Not stripped a main hex on the compact yet.. only the greenstar junior. These look easier to dissemble than the junior which can be a pain to get the top intake arm back onto the hex. Look forward to your next video :)

Nice door to your shed

Superb service! Not much room in there!

Can you please make video off how to remove retainer clip and lower expension vessle

Watched ur vid today never done a compact hate wb im a ideal man so much eaiser to service thanks for your vid although i wish i coukd charge 250!

If most have done a few of these compacts, then stripping them down is quite easy and straight forward, contrary to what most seem to think about them. (love the negativity tho "being a Worcester"). I have see other manufacturers where some parts of a service can be awkward too if you are not familiar with them. you don't really need the special tool as you say, most use a similar type singular blade :) "tip" to stop the electrode seal from falling out, pop a dab of grease in the seating before fitting it. the burner can go in any way. (did you clean that bit of debris out the burner? @12:34) the bearing plate is designed to stop the formation of condensation inside the air box due to the warm/cold air scenario. @15:48 the black gas tube is under negative pressure, so a sniffer will not pick up a leak due to the suction. for newbies / trainees watching - the APS (air pressure switch) as mentioned is not actually that, it is a FGBS (flue gas blockage switch) so if the flue outlet becomes restricted / blocked - back pressure will increase and break the switch as it is connected to the flue gas side. the best way to remove the syphon I find, if it is near to discharge, try and wiggle it so it does, then pull the black rubber tube forward from the bottom outlet connection, bend it up so it also forms a seal, and remove the syphon. loved the video tho, very detailed and informative throughout, I'm sure many will learn from your advice and knowledge. keep up the good work.

Hope to see the system conversion video mate 🙏

Help with EA227 what should read regarding ohms in gas valve many thanks great video thanks for that

What's the 227 fault on CDI?

Great video. I've got a few of these to do this month. How much approx are you charging for the full strip down service. Do you wait until the fan pressure test reading says it needs doing or after a certain time scale?

Thanks for the video, helped me out loads. What is the lamp you are using?

Started in domestic but didn't like it as you mentioned, things are tight. I do commercial and industrial boilers now.

Love your videos I am doing my acs what advice would you give me to get through

Great stuff bro 😎

Please can you tell me How do you take the front casing off a 28 cdi compact? I got expanding foam stuck behind it whilst working on the joists on the room above boiler. Thanks.

I am in no rush to do a FULL SERVICE on these boilers 🤣

Anyone know what changing the plate is like on these? Is it the same as the juniors move the hot pipe and they slide down the back? I know everything about the compact design is shit so idk if it’s too tight or not?

I have got the cdi32 but the heating and hot water knobs don't turn all the way back, is it supposed to be like this?

I have cdi compact give me fault code 227, do u have idea what that?

Nice job mate. How many cuts did you get, and how many times did you swear. That was a few quid in parts you replaced there, a lot of customers want a service, but don’t want to pay the money to have serviceable parts replaced, as they think it’s under warranty and should be free. Pay the money and you will have a proper job done, not as some people do a poke and go service.

Great video as always. I just wondered how you priced for this. I charge £90 for a full strip down sevices and system check. I know the cost of all these seals would add up. I feel if i told the customer its say for instance £180 for all seals and new electrodes etc that they would just go else where. I know online a service is offered at £65 i have no idea how they can actually strip down a bouler and do a good job. So just wondered how you are able to to replace all these parts without scaring the customer away?

I don’t mind stripping these down at all….but I’ve noticed there condense trap blocks easy,

Hi. Great video, thanks. What is your cost for a full service on this boiler including all the new seals ?

How do u check the seals not leaking?

Can u send over link for that magnetic light

So. Explain to me. How when I’ve had boilers serviced by council contractors engineers. They are in and out in ten minutes.

Would you only do a full strip down on this boiler if it failed the fan test??

Can I have service parts list for this boiler and what rough time to make full service? Thanks

still cant find a video showing how to take the cover off😭

Is is from another one of your videos. I'm sure I've watched this the other day

What a bloody performance. Would be quicker to fit a new boiler 😮

One of the worst boilers to service or repair...I don't fit them.

hello Men gut vork , İm working buderus

Not a big fan of Worcester boilers myself,too tight ,too much hassle to get to parts.Other manufacturers found ways of doing things simpler,engineer friendly

Great video. Horrible, horrible boiler

Not a boiler I would recommend.

This is why most engineer just clean a trap a take FGAs for a service. What an unnecessary design

I hate these boilers. They are so fiddly to work on.

I hate Worcester boilers cannot stand them.

Worcester these days are pretty crap… sold off the name (because they didn’t have a low pressure switch)

How do you get the case off without breaking green levers terrrible design
