Those Worcester cases are pretty shocking anyway, but it's rare for the plastic runner to fall off. You can buy a runner repair/ replacement kit. I've done a few over the years. It's normally the casing screws that get dislocated in the plastic moulding and you have to lever them back into position before you refit the case. The lack of sleeving on a gas pipe is on another level
A gas pipe without a sleave is classed as at risk and only worthy of a warning notice.. a self tapping screw will sort out the loose case out 😅. Stop being so dramatic FFS.
A gas pipe passing through a cavity wall is not at risk unless it enters from within a meter box or is showing significant signs of distress as per IGEM/G/11 EDITION 2. notable at worst, your blood pressure must be through the roof 🤣
I’m baffled by why the pipes are Sup bonded like this, even when the copper pipes all go up to the boiler metal plate are they not all touching bonded there 🤔
Electricians regs stopped requiring this for installs after 2008 when the 17th edition of BS7671 came in. Must be a heating engineer job then or a confused electrician! 😀
From an electrician and gas engineer here...it is no bad thing putting supplementary bonding across those pipes. Considering the state of wiring in many properties, unless you are absolutely confident in the electrical installation then having that bonding is an extra safety precaution.
That many customers these days fitting there own controllers there taking room sealed cases off themselves just need to type in TH-cam to see that , think you need to be mindful yourself Alan about some info you upload here just a disclaimer at the start will not put these people off
I haven’t done any videos on installing Worcester Bosch Boilers. Joking aside I can only try my best to promote good work and using gas safe engineers. Thanks for the feedback though.
I agree, Alan and many others like Alan, give out too much information, putting other people's lives at risk. Gas related self educating video should not be allowed on youtube
Hi Allen, Would love if you could do a video on your views of the government offering £5000 from April next year to encourage homeowners to get rid of boilers and to install Air sourced heating pumps. Personally I’m all for the world looking to go greener, but this news has brought concerns to me in a career path. As I’m due to start a Gas courses in 2 weeks time, so I’ve paid a lot of money and concerned will I have longevity of possible work? I was encouraged that the government would support Hydrogen boilers but they seem to be pushing more support towards ASHP systems. Could you offer any advice or information you may know about as someone within the trade. I know 2035 is the year that the natural gas boilers will be banned(from being made/installed). Do you reckon that this is still a career pathway that’s still could be providing work? Thanks
If I remember rightly the MCS was up for review. Basically they have done fuck all, they will phase out one scheme and bring in another. I hope its not like the shit show that was the Greenhomes Grant.
10 years to turn off the gas? What is people can't get an airforce heat pump installed? They just go cold? £5000 isn't a drop in the ocean for the cost of supplying installing an AHP.. I would not worry personally as hydrogen may come in before then.. do the course now and you will earn the money back in a few jobs..
@@brendanfisher2528 everyone thought hydrogen was going to be the solution to cars, turns out no, I can't see it being the fuel of choice for most heating, if you're going to use renewable electricity, using it directly is always going to be more cost effective.
Hi, Worcester Bosch were one of the best Boiler Manufacturers out there until they came out with the 2000 and 4000 range Gas Boilers. There will be many more to come as the casing has just got worse 😊

I wouldn't say shocking lol
Looks better than 90% of the boilers I see everyday in the states.
Yes but most are electronic. This is a gas bases tankless as the us call thrm
It's easy shock ya that's all I'll say

@@superwhites5870 r8? as in rate?

do you know what AR means and what to do?

this one is still ok. hanging on the wall
ours is on chair 🤣🤣🤣🤣..
I’m giving her all she’s got captain!!
The green & black casing clips are even worse. They snap when you look at them.
Seen a hell of a lot worse than that. Bad installs seem to be a lot more common recently??

The cowboy plumbers are the one"s at fault not the brand of boiler 😷
Are you really an engineer? Shocking?! ...not really seen a hell of a lot worse.
Are we not going to mention its plugged in to the wall ? 🤔
calm down pal , there ent no leak of gas nor is there spillage keep ya knickers on
Sloppy, not exactly shocking.
You should remember the oil embargo get ready for the next one
All WB cases are shockingly designed......🤪
I agreeeeee
Ring victim support ,they will help with the shock allan
I've seen a lot worse.
Lol, I see this all the time, I think your over reacting mate.

I must come across an open case at least once a week. Mainly Vaillant.
looks pretty normal.....
did you watch this one? interested to hear your thoughts? Thanks. th-cam.com/video/zAJPovHxtXs/w-d-xo.html
Bit dramatic 🤣🤣🤣
Thank You
Allen I love what you do but do you think he watch one of your videos and gave it a bash himself trying to fettle his boiler.

@@AmjadKhan-ux6nb The manufacturers having been doing videos on TH-cam for over 10 years
We don't know it was the last guy who worked on it maybe it was the guy before the last guy 😁
Last bloke there is responsible in the eyes of the HSE. Good luck with that excuse in court.
Please, ive seen alot worse than that.
Shouldn't be wired like that as well
Unreal. Get the installer reported. If you want to raise the standards then thats what needs to happen

@@brendanfisher2528 that’s true to be honest!
Thanks for easing my concerns 👍
Dont panic, air source are a waste of time ,they will never take off and u will earn a fortune ripping them back out 😂
