Replacing a Vaillant timer

[nickjb]

We've got a Vaillant 828E combi with a 110 24hr timer. I would like to upgrade to a 7 day timer. It looks like I might be able to plug in a 120 7 day timer. Is it as easy as that? Is that the best/right replacement? Anything to be wary of?

hey i have a ford

can i just sling a v8 in it

I've swapped a couple of ford engines. Funnily enough the bolt patterns and engine mounts are fairly common and its not that tricky. Even swapped a petrol engine for a diesel once. Happy to help with your swap if you like. I presume you don't know the answer to my question

vaillant combi

covers about 20 boilers smartass

try putting a v6 zephyr engine in a thames van

or a lotus twin cam in an escort and trying to get the gearbox to fit then the prop shaft

think someones been on the beer again.

anyway to answer the question yes the 110 and 120 are interchangable instructions for changing should be in the box.

this can be done as i have had it done
you must folow the instructions in the installation manual as the timer will have to be put on a wall remotelly and the 7 day timer will aso have to have a temp control on it ( be carful and folow the warnings as there is a chance of blowing all the eletrics when fitting. ( happed ))

refer to page 29 and 30 of instructions for installation and servicing of vaillant and the notes on the unit you have chosen ( i have a drayton unit )
