Vaillant boiler - does this look right?

[BoilerDunce]

don't roll your eyes at me bro lol

I think you should apologise

Is this a combi, 800 series, or a system boiler, 600 series with a hw cylinder?

it doesn't say on the front, I'll try and find out.

thanks for the replies, I appreciate this a great deal

I'll send a book on cage fighting to the geezer who cracks it lol

Well have you got a hw cylinder?

 

[BoilerDunce]

*gets off fat arse*

it's 0.9... oscillating to 0.8

does that sound good?

Don't they both come on with a demand on the system version?

If the HW stat is turned up on the system boiler, the tap will appear even tough it is doing absolutely nothing.

On a system boiler the DHW stat should always be left fully off, unless you are using the Unistor and VR65.

When i first saw one i made myself look like a right halfwit by telling the customer that they had a combi

You seem jealous of my surfer dialect?

To be fair, it was very kind of you to make an apology - duly accepted

 

[BoilerDunce]

what do you reckon to 0.9?

Surfer? i thought you was talking that weird language the yoooffs in the big smoke talk,,,ya get mi.

 

[scatmanjohn]

Wait til the rads are cold and then recheck. It should be 1.0 bar with the system cold.

 

[BoilerDunce]

I get ya blud, seen!

cheers mate, I will check it tomorrow.

The gauge on the right seems to be quite low - my friend tells me the radiator in the bathroom upstairs is not working... and suspects this means that the pressure is slowly going down

I think this is what happened before - do you know of any way to give it a boost. The engineer was able to last time, I just can't remember what it was that he did.

2 grey knobs under the boiler that say 'closed'. Turn one then the other and the pressure will rise.

Increase to 1.2 Bar then turn off both knobs again.

 

[BoilerDunce]

Dave, that's really kind

Do you mean the two grey knobs to the side? These ones here on the left?

No,underneath the boiler. On the bottom of the boiler where all the pipes sticking out of it are
