2 hrs on a wb can pass in the blink of an eye... And that's when you have full access!

Can't get better than that reply Tbf.

It's Worth checking the tube/hose to the expansion vessel as well.

That's why I fit an external one when they fail... Same as on other boilers with a failed integral.

I know it's integral on that boiler... It's bloody useless! That's why I said "on external filling loops" I usually cap/put them out of service and use an external replacement - one with a gauge.

On external filling loops, this is why they come with cap ends and the braided hose is meant to be removed when not in use... I was amazed to actually find one in the removed position on a callout at the weekend!

Now you couldn't ask for more of a guide than that. Good for you for making the effort... Next, your own youtube channel ;)

You probably know more about oil boilers than me... I rarely see them.

Well, you can make sure they are properly fitted with no twists, kinks or tight radius bends. If they're under stress and/or there's a leak from the sink/basin above, the ss sheathing corrodes, frays and then the rubber inner blisters and gets punctured by the sharp points of the frayed mesh...

Joseph is a hero of mine. You should visit crossness pumping station, it's remarkable.

Many pump failures are due to caps going.

No... Them failing.

@Agile the above advice was for non-plumbers who won't have or know how to use a compressor on an EV.

It's all about the cantilever! Kitchen cupboards, with all their content, hang from 4 short screws! It's shear loading so not pulling out but down!

You can try.
