Oil line filters - do YOU clean/ change them?

[Roger Welton]

Had a similar experience on Saturday cust had run out of oil, so needed to bleed lines to aga and boiler, boiler went off easily, aga was a real pain.

checked tank filter to find no element inside body! Couldn't pull oil through with suction pump so quick trip home to collect compressor, blew through half bucket of muck, back together with nice new 489 fitted, lovely flow to cooker.

Guys, now you see why I charge more for boilers I'm servicing for the first time.

If we install the system or serviced it to our standards last year then we know what we are walking into this year (usually a pleasant experience all round).

On the plus side you didn't have a few more boring straight forward jobs
