record it on tape and post it on youtube 
check the worcester manual, if i remember correctly it gives you a step by step on how to do it. have a water bag ready for when it comes off.
make sure R&F pipes are closed under boiler along with Cold water inlet.
once all that is done. open the lowest hot water tap available then check the manual for dismantling existing hot water heat exchanger.

don't close the flow and return isolation valves they leak and its boiler off the wall job if they do (ya dnt need to close um anyway). if ya dnt fancy it id get a pro in, the clip can be a bit awkward, its pretty close to the pcb and the cdi does tend to leak
You mean shut off water drain boiler down prior to commencing job?don't close the flow and return isolation valves they leak and its boiler off the wall job if they do (ya dnt need to close um anyway). if ya dnt fancy it id get a pro in, the clip can be a bit awkward, its pretty close to the pcb and the cdi does tend to leak
I would like to reitterate the above about not touching the isolation valves.
Do not touch them, look at them or breath on them. They WILL Leak afterwards. Get spare washers for the plate heat exchanger connections. they will also leak afterwards. Other than thats its a straight forward job!
