if the system wasnt flushed / the benchmark book cant have been filled in

if not your warranty could be for 10 yrs vaillant could refuse to honour it

Even with a benchmark filled out, its worth diddly squat if the system was not installed correctly. Look on the benchmark and tell us what he has written for the CORGI ID and serial numbers!

On the benchmark he only has written CORGI reg number in CORGI registration details but no CORGI ID serial No.....

Is is enough to put only CORGI Reg No? (I actualy did not check his CORGI ID he just left me his visit card and said that he is CORGI man for 18 years and i did believe )
I think i have to call him back ask for my money and for new boiler as well ! WHat do you think?
THank you

I cannot remember my ID number, so only enter the CORGI number. I feel this is sufficient and if there is a need for the ID number, it can be provided.

If you visit CORGI site, enter the installers postcode, and look for boiler related gas work, his name should come up if he is registered.

Boiler needs replacing, obviously had it's day.

Thank you DP He is listed on this website...
I want to explain how everything was done....
My friend (not corgi man) did all plumbing for me (all new pipes everywhere including water mains) and obviously check it for leak by filling it with water before the corgi man will install the boiler.
THe corgi man came and installed it (did not flush it ...... )
The boiler was working for about five days .....
My friend took radiator out and boiler locked out with "f.25" on the display i looke in the manual and did not found this code In the manual only "f.24". So i did empty all system when it was hot (is it right way to do it?) and refil it again but it still stoped in the morning....
So i waited for man who did plumbing for me and he found leak on the ground floor wich is like building site (i live upstairs now)so he fixed it and now boiler is working.
Is it going to work? Do i need to do anithing to it?Any ideas please....
Thank you

what you need to do is get him back to flush the system properly
and add inhibitor

Trouble is you can take the corgi number off of a passing van and it will come up legit (probably) on a web check. The card number is the one that cuts the mustard. There must be hundreds using the corgi number of someone else, with or without their knowledge. Saw a benchmark this week on a three month old boiler that was total bollx if you knew what should be there. And that had a corgi number but surprise- no card number. Burner pressure 20mb? Cleanser used- 'System flush'? Anything else that required a test figure left blank. System water filthy. Registered? My arse!
