    Vaillant service contract worth it?

    Newbie hello and some boiler related regs questions!

    Just like SpudKey said, the G3 Regs only cover Unvented Systems; A Combination boiler is not an unvented system; Also, I hear you mentioned considering a Vokera, IMHO don't! A bit more (money) will get you a lot more (value)-I'd probably look at Worcester Bosch or Vaillant

    Help please: Celsia 24le - no hot water

    The Celsia 24Le is just the same as the Worcester 24CDi; just the British Gas Version- Its probably the diverter valve, a diaphragm service kit should do the job! With regards to price, don't know about local gas engineers, but British Gas charge £156 parts and labour (On Call Assist)- That...

    Gas Fire In Bedroom-Classify AR or ID??

    I've only qualified in May, so bear with me; Under the Gas Regs, as far as I know, a fire can only be installed in a bedroom with an ASD; Now, if a 20 year old fire is installed, with no probs at all, am I right in saying it's AR? Cheers

    ACS Assessments

    ACS assessments are industry exams ascertaining competency on gas appliances/installations. They do allow you to work on gas provided you work for a corgi registered business, or if you go self-employed, provided you gain corgi registration.

    baxi 105 he fan/flue fault

    If the fans running and the boiler then goes to lockout, I would suspect a faulty APS myself; But again, like someone said in this thread earlier, a competent engineer would use a multimeter to diagnose through faultfinding- If your going to chuck parts chuck an APS before chucking a PCB!

    Ariston MicroGenus Boiler behaving like a spoilt child..HELP

    It would've seemed an Air Pressure Switch fault to me. I would personally clean the fan (to ensure a sufficient pressure differential was created to operate the APS) and clean the Venturi at the same time on the fan. However, do you hear sparking at the burner?
