    As someone who is about to start my gas safe course this video is very helpful to get some understanding and perspective about how to repair and overcome problems with domestic properties

    Nice work. I, too, work as a maintenance engineer, and it's great to see other engineers take such pride in their work. With the baxi filter, you can take them out and clean them from my experience, and also, with the synchro motor, you can just replace the motor, and it can save a lot of time. Great video, though.

    • @advancedboilertraining
      @advancedboilertraining  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah I’ve managed to take the filter out in the past but this one was like it was super glued it. It was much quicker/easier to change the whole valve

    On the vaillant if you reset the boiler you can press the top right to get the digital pressure gauge up and the pressure changes when the pump kicks in unless pump is stuck or the low pressure switch is blocked

  • @craigwebster7405
    @craigwebster7405 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I've just done my ACS. On the training for track pipe, they said if you solder with the track pipe connected, the flux vapour can corrode the inside of the track pipe. Not sure if that's what happened here but maybe

    • @advancedboilertraining
      @advancedboilertraining  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    On diverter valves, I always change them as they tend to leak again and that would save me from a recall. Not that expensive part

      Your pen proved voltage, not how much and it can't confirm your neutral.
      Better with voltage testers that show voltage, ac and dc and allows you to confirm a whole circuit via live to neutral
