Nice one Derek... Glow worm boilers were our weapon of choice back in the day , the Micron and ultimate were basically the same boiler and we loved the micron as it would fit in a kitchen cupboard , I think the only repairs I had to do on these was replace the fan’s after a few years of good service due to the bearings over heating , other than that no problems with them... 👍
You got that up and running like nobody’s business! Well done. Great video. The amount of detail you go into is perfect. Thanks Derek 👍🏻 Asian Jon. Training.
I have Micron 50FF and would like to replace the radiators. Everyone says you might need to add pressure to the boiler but I assume this doesn’t apply to this boiler as I can’t see any pressure gauge?
Don’t see many of these out there now, I have a dim and distant memory of fitting one around 2001/2002 ish. Cast iron boilers were built like tanks and would probably run forever with a little tlc every year.
My Glow worm fuelsaver mk11 is 35years old 1989! Still works great. I service it yearly.
Thats amazing getting an old boiler like that up and running again.

Great video once again Derek.....
Could we see how you replaced the olive and the insulation panel too?
Sorry it’s in the scrap yard now 😁

We still have an Ultimate 100FF running the central heating in our house... any reason I should be looking to replace it?
Could you do some LPG videos please Derek on the vids to do list 🙏🙏🙏 and don't forget to stop waffling and get on with it 😂😂😂
Will do 😜👍🏻
That boiler looks so much less fragile than a modern condensing boiler
Yes mate they are bulletproof 😜
👍🤓👍
Great vid thanks Derek!
