new installation

It looks very diy. Those speedfit fittings are totally unnecessary and look horrible. Still if you're happy then we're happy for you.

Love to see the flue and condense tho please!

Hmmm speedfit does not look good, also plugged not on fuse spur, unstraight pipework

Too many elbows. Rotating heating return 90 degree and similar consideration to cold water feed would both square and simplify pipework. More bends and X overs could be pulled and much of the pipework could have been made up on bench, if confidence to solder in place lacking. Copper pushfits to replace plastic on 22mm heating runs would have been better at minimal additional cost. Better still, having cut and formed pipework, pay heating engineer to solder joints whilst he was doing gas supply.

It doesn't look bad (expected it to be push fit fittings) but would like to see where the high temp blow off goes (copper pipe by the plastic overflow pipe) and flue

the reason i got tld for the nonfuse socket is was the was pulled up by a gas safe inspection and told him its not to have a switch on ???? i`m only going off what he told me
we have a saying if its not broken dont fix it and its running like a dream, i did watch it get so many drains the water was clear and watched him sticking a bottle of f1 in, full benchmark paperwork all filled in, called gs up and confirmed its been registered
i let you guys discuss oh and here is the flue

 

[ShaunCorbs]

Any chance of an outside pic if it's possible

Hmmmm

Does your drain / rain water system go to main drainage or to a soak away ? Do you know ?

He's wrong re fuse spur

 

[northernstar]

the drain is fed straight into the main drains (sewers)

the drain is fed straight into the main drains (sewers)

That's ok needs a non return valve fitting or an air gap out side

Else if rain pipe gets blocked below connection for the boiler all the rain water could flood the boiler its happened before

This was a professional installation

 

[Riley]

Apparently

That case doesn't look properly fitted to me. The top clip

Good spot. Looks like its been pushed under the retaining bar.
