That’s one of the best step by step guides I’ve seen anyone make. The attention to detail with the auto air valve shows how thoroughly you do your job. We’ll done
Living in Cornwall it’s was becoming difficult to find someone to fix my boiler. Following this video enabled me to do the job myself. Fantastic video, Thank you so much.
Waseem I must tell you this: THANK YOU, THANK YOU THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH!!! This video has been the difference between a frutrating dripping Vaillant boiler, and a successful fixing operation! I have a Vaillant EcoBlock 236 boiler and, even if it is not the same model in your video, your instructions are so precise that I was able to fix it with the same smooth mood you have in your video! Thank you again for this! I've also clean the AAV as you wisely suggest! About the AAV I would add the following small advice: don't worry if the small spring get off the pin while washing - just keep on cleaning carefully, then reassemble the two pieces by twisting the spring onto the thread on the pin. I got scared when they separated while washing, I didn't expected that, and I was afraid not to have spare parts around, being Sunday! Well, at the end everything seems running correctly! Great video and great feeling! Greetings and Ciao! from Italy
Thank you so much! Your video was incredibly detailed and made the process of changing the diverter valve on my Vaillant Ecotec Plus 837 so easy to follow. I couldn't have done it without your step-by-step guidance. Truly appreciate your effort and the clear explanations!
Hi Wasim My name is Suri. I m from London. I m 54 years old studying to be a Gas Safety Engineer. I m in the process of making job portpolio. I saw your video on changing valliant diverter valve. I m very much pleased the way u explained in very simplistic way. I was a great help. May Allah bless u and ur family all the time. Regards
Absolutely awesome! Really excellent well described guide that didn't rush through the job. Without this video I'm not sure I would have been brave enough to tackle it. You've saved me a fortune, thank you!! 👍
This Video saved me a FORTUNE!! I have exactly the same boiler (even the same toolkit!) and this video was spot on!! - I didn't bother servicing that last part, as I was too excited to see if it fixed my issue, but I plan to go back and do that tomorrow. Thankyou so much!
Mate you saved me a few hundred quid! I did get a bit wet by not putting the pipe in far enough but this was an amazingly detailed and helpful video. Thanks mate
Very informative video mate I’ve got my first diverter valve on a Vaillant to change tomorrow and I feel a lot more confident about it thanks to you. One thing I would say is it might be worth stating that you must be gas safe registered to take the case off a gas boiler as there are a few guys in the comments who clearly aren’t and have carried this job out.
I found your videos very helpful. I’m done now with my practicals waiting for boiler installations. Nice one brother. Masha Allah you are good in your job. Wish you more success.
just followed your instruction , everything worked great .good tip about the auto air valve it needed cleaning .I would recomend putting the plug in the sink when cleaning small items as they have a bad habit of going down the trap . your instruction was clear and to the point no time wasted on waffle also good video of everything relevant to the job . 5 stars all the way
Fantastic. Really appreciate people like you, helping others with your knowledge and experience. I do the same, only I do it with apprentices, so I can pass my knowledge onto them, that means they will become competent skilled workers, who can then complete the circle and, help others.
I hope you see this, my elderly relative was quoted over £275 for this job. I saw this and did it for her it cost me £80. I am not a plumber in any way or shape or form. Thank you sooooo much for this you have helped out more than you could know. Thank you again.
Fantastic step by step guide - thank you for doing it and uploading, as this enabled me to change the diverter valve on my valiant boiler and solved the problem where the radiators kept coming in when the hot water was not running. Awesome work..!!
very detail explanation. unlike other engineers video which show less detail, this is every step well explain video, love it, would b looking at more of ur videos... thank you
I have never seen anyone like this brother given details on plumbing and gas on TH-cam or any public accedemic relating to this profession. May Allah reward more br. In sha Allah. Meanwhile, I love to meet u br.if u are in London pls. Stay blessed.
Pity you don’t live in Sheffield I’d give you a job , good video mate like the way you clean auto air vent when boilers drained. I always clean pressure sensor as well , top man keep up the good work. Good to see top engineers in the industry 👍👍
Thanks very much i really appreciate the time and effort you have put in on this video your welcome to call round for a tea and chocolate biscuits thanks much appreciated 😊👌👍
Thanks for the excellent video. Changed the diverter valve and house is warm again. I really appreciated the little extra - cleaning the automatic air vent. That was a nice touch. I struggled to get the valve reconnected to the pump with the new O-ring, even with it lubricated with soap and water. How did you do it so effortlessly? Never mind, I got there in the end. Cheers!
This is brilliant thank you, a question, my hot water display goes above the recommended temperature 71c but goes up to 77 even hotter when drawing dhw, suggestion please
I have been watching your videos, very well explained, specially for beginners like me is very useful, you are basically filling the gap I think, there are lots of similar videos on TH-cam but you have tried to clarify it targeting beginners, thank you very much, from your videos I am 100% sure that your first priority is to help new guys, thank you very much taking time to do this. I got some request for you for future videos. 1. When you install new boiler can closely and in detail explain about flue installation referring to the Manufacturer Instructions, l know you have done briefly before, but please expand it bit more. 2. Can you also explain what short of screws you use for different types of walls, like for plaster board, brick wall etc, bit of explanation. 3. Can you please do video now and then answering people's questions, if you do this please make a short video so that we can send questions on the comment section. Thank you very much.
Hey, great looking video, my Vaillant 838 pressure has been going up about a bar a day now for a week, was beginning to think about what to do with it... being a slightly less qualified plumber - eg, not gas registered - I generally stayed away from opening a boiler up, but seeing this video, I think I owe it to myself.... and wife for Xmas pressies!! to try repressurising the vessel first, looks pretty straight forward, and not touching any gas components. A job for Friday afternoon... I'll be watching this video a few times more before then! Thanks for the help!
Great video guys, very informative, the diverter valve is leaking on my Valiant boiler and you've given me the courage to attempt to change it, been quoted £500 so hopefully some money saved..
Salaam bro, I've started watching your videos for a week now and so impressed. Could you possibly make a video of all the tools you have and where we can buy them from? For someone new in the industry will help them a lot. Really like your ratchet spanner to get into tight spaces 👌
@@rayc1503 Turns out diverter cartridge needed replacing & diverter valve motor wasn't retracting backwards & forwards & was replaced. £30 fix in total. So after being turned to run boiler into ground & just isolate heating side with screwdriver by heating engineer. Heater exchanger was clean as a whistle. Engineer made me pay for a heater exchanger in advance which was not even needed.
@@PlumbingDoctors brother slaam, preciate the videos, very good videos keep em coming, can you please include pricing on what you charge for the jobs your doing for us newbies, much preciated, Allah bless ameen
@@PlumbingDoctors we got less copper used as material of pipes. Only if you are rich enough 😁. Most of the systems are made with polypropylene. And most of the boilers are non condens. It's because of price and lack of good engineers outside Moscow and Saint-Petersburg. Also green ideas are not shared by the customers and the government so there are still some people who respect and choose those big floor-standing cast iron boiler.
Great detail and a job well done. I have a Vaillant Eco tec plus 637 that needs an intrusive service and its heating the rads but not the hot water. ( egg timer shows in the display), so hopefully the guy is a competent as you when he calls.
How much would this job normally cost roughly? I've got this boiler where the radiator is heating up even though thermostat temperature has been reached. I suspect its the motorised or diverter valve.
Yep most people overlook the AAV's but its good practice to give them a good clean 👍🏻.. I did not ask the customer about the radiator but i think its used to dry clothes.. great idea on my opinion 👌
Great video thanks for the upload. I’ve got a VAILLANT Ecotec plus 837 R1 the radiators are coming on by themselves and I did change the diverter valve last year. Is it the same problem again? … any help will be appreciated. 🙏🏽

U r awesome, first guy ever seen wo gives brief details about maintenance, thanks a lot don't have more words but plz keep it up more videos.
Thanks 👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent. Good job with a step by step detail. Very good for new Gas Safe Engineers like me.

Cheers!
Make sure you have slackened the screw which holds the pump to the body of the boiler. So the pump has a bit of play
Bro... 1st engineer I know to give love to the aav.
Keep up the good work👍🏾
This is brilliant thank you, a question, my hot water display goes above the recommended temperature 71c but goes up to 77 even hotter when drawing dhw, suggestion please
Is your boiler hitting temp then going off. Cooling and firing again (cycling)?
@@rayc1503 eventually yes it goes off and fires back up if I'm not mistaken I shall look tomorrow and double check.
thats normal as the temp you see on the display is not the same as what you set
@@PlumbingDoctors Thank you so much for getting back to me, you've been more than helpful.
Excellent tutorial . Well explained, handy tips added in. Brilliant stuff. Many thanks for this.

i'm not saying you shouldn't, but technically you're not supposed to take the cover off the boiler because it is a room sealed appliance.

@@PlumbingDoctors Thanks
Great video bruv. A bit of tip: apply a bit of LSX to tip of your screwdriver. That will assist you in putting back the bottom screw on diverter valve
I tried that in the video but it failed and cut it out lol 😆
If you have a magnet ,rub your screwdriver against it and try 😉
The plastic diverter valves had failed twice in the last two years on my Vaillant Ecotec Pro 28, which was installed in August 2013. It is a known recurrent problem with the plastic DVs so this time replaced with the more durable brass one.
