In this video I show how I carry out a full service on a Worcester Bosch CDI.
Part numbers for the service kit and seals are in the video.
Literally the only useful video on CZcams on these boilers.
Very good videos, wish there are more and more of these service videos to cover all boiler types . Thanks for ur time and effort
Two screws on the top of the boiler, one on either side will release the top panel for access to the heat exchanger bud 👌🏼
Nice one thanks for the tip mate 👍🏽
Great video buddy, I don’t often work on Worcesters so this will help me in the future if I come across them 👍🏻
Another great video cp ☺️
4.05 To make it easy to unscrew the screw 13 on the back there is a little trick. The upper casing of the boiler consists of two parts. so you unscrew the two screws at the top and pull the plate off
Thanks mate, I discovered this afterwards thanks to everyone who commented to let me know 👍🏽 these small bits of information can really help each other out
Thanks bud, looking to do the same to my cdi42 boiler.. we can't use the DHW as it goes over temp every time..so will do both the burner and the DHW exchanger 👍
I’ve got to do one of these tomorrow this videos a massive help, nice one chirag 👍
Brilliant Dave - hope it all goes ok mate!
Same,doing one tomorrow for the first time. Thanks for the vid
What's the charge for full service
Thank you great video thanks for sharing knowledge
Great video. Thank u.
Spot on 👍
Great video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for information
👍🏽
Good one
the top casing comes off for easy access to the top of heat exchanger
Nice one thanks mate 👍🏽
A very good video
Thank you!
Another good one CP. Well explained as usual. Do you need to do a negative fan pressure check on these to determine whether they need to be stripped down and cleaned ? Or do do you strip and clean regardless ?.
Yes mate, just under the fan you'll find the -ve pressure test point cap. Good practice to do a full strip clean even if it passed FGA and fan pressure checks, it's all about preventative maintenance, not reactive!
@@hdhanji8006 thanks mate
What H Dhanji said 😉
Interesting question. When in doubt always follow the Manufacturer's Instructions 🤣🥴🙄😉
Great video and very informative, I wanted to ask where did you get your training from? Did you use to work for British gas?
Nope never worked for BG, was with a social housing maintenance firm and now self employed
Top man 🫡
God bless 🙏
👍🏽
Great video i was wondering how you get on with the dewalt compressor ? Cheers mick
Thanks mate. The compressor is great! Especially with a 5ah battery I rarely need to charge it. Only thing I'd say it's bigger than the other brand ones so can be a bit bulky, but where I'm DeWalt with everything else it made sense to get it
@@cputilitysolutions cheers just bought one my Parkside one is nearly finished after 4years and also on Dewalt battery platform so makes sense keep the videos coming will share the like subscribe and 👍 👌
Good clear info.👍 Is there any more for this type of boiler?
Thanks 👍🏾
Good quality service, how much would that cost in total please.
Thank you, I charge £150 plus parts for a full strip down service
Nice strip and clean cusie have u seen the fan pop due to moisture? when servicing ? I was lucky enough to be audited when it happened in front of this guy . He claimed Worcester know of this but don't acknowledge the fact
I've had it happen to me once mate. I always let the customer know of this issue before starting as it's a big expense if it happens! A good method is to warm the fan up a bit with a hairdryer before putting the power on to dry off any excess moisture
Great vids as always mate, quick question as a newly qualified engineer I’m servicing friends and family’s boilers for the next few months just trying to get more experience .
Where is the best place to source spare parts in London / south east London ? would you typically order them in then return to the job ? Invest in a range of supplies
Would be good to get some feedback it’s hard graft starting out
Find a local boiler spares and build a relationship with them. I get my bits from Essex Boiler Spares. But you can look at online merchants too. I keep a variety of van stock to get first time fixes but you'll learn what to carry as you go out on your own and finally which common parts you're replacing
@@cputilitysolutions thanks mate 👌
That top panel comes off.
Thanks
Do you need a fancy compressor to top up the expansion tank or can it be done with any old bike pump (with a gauge ofc)? Thanks
A bike pump with a gauge will do 👍🏽
@@cputilitysolutions Thanks Mate
Great video!! 👍How did you drain the boiler? Where does your hose connect to?
Thank you, the boiler has a drain off point below the pump 👍🏾
Thanks for you reply. Is that where the black hose connects to the condensate pipe. I had a call yesterday to re charge the expansion vessel but i struggled to drain the boiler. I downloaded the boiler pdf but it only stated there is an internal drain point. I’m going back next week to service the boiler so I’ll have another go at draining the boiler
Wouldn't it have been better to take the top one off first mate. Saves the bits you flush getting stuck in the lower part you just cleaned?
Yes potentially could do it that way too 👍🏽
Had one today did a full strip down like you have just showd 30 cdi had a fan pressure of 4;70 on high rate then after a few seconds i could hear the fan slow slightly and the fan pressure droped to 3:80 never had this before could it be the fan on its way out regards Lee
Not sure, mate, if it's in max rate it should stay ramped up 🤔
@@cputilitysolutions yes it is a strange one never had it before
Did you check the fan pressure at max rate before you started?
How do you get on putting the burner gasket back had one today put it back and it was leaking so had to take it back out lol
Yeah I've had that before too
@@cputilitysolutions what would help is say a bit of drain down hose to hold the silver bit up with the nut so you have two hands to get it back in my mate takes all the fan out todo it
How much is a gas safety boiler check roughly? we're moving into a property & would like it checking over as its located within a bedroom
Hi, please message me on 07912288451 👍🏽
What are the 26_9 checks? Can you show them?
Take the top case platt off will give you more room
Thanks 👍🏾
What would you charge for that service am a newly qualified gas engineer thanks
£180+vat labour plus parts 👍🏾
What's the magnetic wristband for? I'm not a plumber clearly lol
Just for holding screws, etc so they don't get lost
its great to see someone do a full service.however i just dont see why taking the top burner out makes the boiler work better. just a waste of time in my opinion.
Taking out the top burner is two fold. It allows you to flush through the heat exchanger properly and replace the burner seal that can fail over time.
the easiest and less time consuming way is to purchase a baxi. takes 2 mins to gain entry inside the burner. worcester like to make it as difficult as possible.i have no idea why people think worcesters are the best. they take twice as long to service and cost nearly twice as much to purchase.the o ring seals fail just as much as any other boiler,and they arnt any more efficient as any other band A boiler. complete waste of money in my opion.that opinion has been collected with over 35 years of fitting boilers@@karenmatthews9522
Why do you have a magnetic wrist band ?
.
So I can show boilers that I'm attracted to them
Bro can uou service my boiler please
Whereabouts are you based?
@@cputilitysolutions where are you from bro
You lost me at draining the boiler into the customers bath .
Oh well, win some lose some
horrible construction
👍🏾
Wow British Gas doesn’t do this when they service my boiler
