hi lads as the title says, I am on a boiler swap at the moment just wanted to make sure that I do it right.

The air brick from outside is open but from now beide the toilet it’s blocked can I ignore it and install the boiler as normal?

See pictures below

I think I understand the question Ron lol , I would just render some sand and cement over the top of the vent .
Flue looks a bit short but it maybe the angle

Air brick needs to come out or as town says as it's still connected to the void eg cavity

Also why the ptfe on the threads of compression fittings ?

Looks like maybe the old boiler flue going off the dirty marks etc?

I am very sorry my phone is a huge mess and I will need to go let it fixed. But I can see you managed to spunderstand my question
That’s not my install I just changed the boiler today so now, it looks neat and spot on.

Old install not mine just wanted to show you what boiler is there and if I could install the boiler back in this location due to the fact of the blocked air brick

No I did not. Didn’t even know why they have used it. The pressure is good. I have got 16lpm, 2.2bar and 2.9 bar static pressure.
