Out with the old still waiting on the new 🤣.

Made a start on the Viessman 222 - f upgrade got rid of most of the old but boiler is still on route we ran a new gas in and made a start on the pipework alterations . Kop

Boiler arrived mixed feelings about it if I'm honest I don't like o ring connections theres a awful lot of joint that can't be got at 😱 kop

 

[Scott_D]

Is it working KOP or is that tomorrow?

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Wouldn’t worrie about the o ring joints there brilliant like most of the heat exchanger connections in most German boilers

Now up and running chaps quite impressive performance 👍 hotwater works a treat heating will take a while to sort out customer now working on the app 😁 kop

I'll be honest: I think the internals of that particular Viessmann boiler are messy and agree access will be hard if anything ever goes wrong. Wouldn't want one myself.

Now completed chaps paperwork this afternoon have a great weekend . Kop

I went on the 200 course bud the plastic hydroblock put me off so haven't fitted any till now 😜. Kop

Tidy!

Why did you put all those horizontal bits of studding in to support that pipe in the loft rather than just just clipping to the existing timbers? Nicely done, but seems a lot of extra work. Was location critical, or had you already drilled the hole and didn't want to add extra bends/use Munsen rings?

The plastic hydroblock? EDIT: Oh I see, but then we fit Magnacleans and they're okay, except the seals

 

[Scott_D]

good work
What’s the verdict?

You got it bud to avoid extra fittings that aren't needed a range cooker and gas fire in the property as well as the boiler joined up the old 22 mm gas supply to our new 28mm so the boiler fed two ways if needed and no redundant pipework.

Was nice to fit but alot of work I can't really judge till it's been in a while bud but yeah I liked it digital screen was a nice touch . Kop

 

[Scott_D]

If you had space would you go for this again or boiler and cylinder

Yeah but they are on the return at lower temperatures this is my experience with plastic hope I'm wrong bud .

This thing is equivalent to a 300 litre cylinder so maybe if the job warranted it, I do like the oso cylinders though definitely fit them again.

Nice Install KOP.

Is that boiler basically a combi boiler with a storage tank heated via a plate heat exchenger.
I can see the heat exchanger behind you analyser.

What size is the tank? Recovery time?

Like the touch screen on the front.
Would like to know the price of that as a spare part?

Yes mate as below hate to think 😱 100 litre storage bud they do a wall mount version the 111 with 40 litre storage .👍
