How long and rough price?

[mutley racers]

taking out old open vent system and replacing with Combi boiler(36 cdi compact). Re-running 15metres of 28mm new gas supply internally through 2 walls and under floorboards up stairs. And re-placing 10 metres of lead main buried in plaster?

So powerflush
rip out old system
hang boiler
run new gas carcass
pipe boiler
commission

I will be using a plume management kit, which states on installation manual that the air duct can be 150mm away from boundary line as long as plume kit is 300mm

How long and how much? Not done a job like this on my own. Always just a straight swop

all guestimates welcome

Oh and it is Ealing area

A decent team would have that up and running in a day easily. Second day to manual flush/powerflush,wire and patch up.

So you flush after hanging new boiler then?

I qoute for 2 engineers to do these jobs mate at a starting price of 2500 as others say get someone to help or a 2nd engineer.

Yes but when ever i do an upgrade i also fit a magna clean which prevents any crap getting in the boiler overnight.

 

[mutley racers]

but when you do a powerflush you reverse the flow also to dislodge crud.

don't know any other engineers. and getting a labourer in i don't know will waste my time telling them what to do all the time

Ask on here if you need a hand. If you do want an extra pair of hands I may be able to help out for a day of two if needed, just drop me a pm.

As the old system is draining, your hanging the new boiler, core out the hole and pipe new boiler, then finish ripping the last lot out. Convert all to mains, tee in flow returns and hot water. Check for leaks

Day two setup powerflush as your doing the gas, condense, prv commission and test

Third day making good, paperwork snags etc, get paid

I do it roughly like this and i normally work on my own

 

[Reltub]

You're not allowed to powerflush when the boiler is on the wall tho apparently.

 

[GasmanxxxR1]

Thats on green deal, just isolate the flow and returns if you that worried about it

 

[mutley racers]

interesting.

where are you based mfgs?

 

[Howsie]

If you're on your own and unsure, five days. If not three should see it done. Do it on price and docents matter.

 

[stevetheplumber]

Im available for a day anytime KNOCK IT OUT IN TWO DAYS TOGETHER

Quote for 5 days and hope to finish in 3 then either book more work in or take a long weekend.

Don't share your wages with anyone other than a cheap lackey unless you really need to get it done fast. No point finishing the job in 2 days, paying someone else then sitting on your backside wed, thurs and friday!
