Checked today and no glass (as i thought)

Just ad an after thought tamz about lifting the boiler off without stripping it. Reason was it was an unknown quantity having never seen one before.

Job was given me by a guy who Will never work again age 47 had two operations on his spine. Lifted an old top heavy boiler of wall on his own got caught off balance and leaned back....crunched his vertebrae in base of spine. Had to sell his van and stock. When his phone rings he gives us the installs though. Doing quite well out of it tbh....well better than him that's for sure.

we thought our boat had come in when they started the combis so light compared to what went before
i reckon youd need six plumbers to fit a gloworm floor stander these days the box with the casing was as heavy as some combis
ideal mex was the first to come with the case fitted but flue in another box
neta heats came with a hook so one man could fit it probably weighed about a hundred weight which you had to dead lift onto a bracket then the hook held it till you got a screw in

I moved house and that had an old sprint in,it was ok for a year or so but the piolot kept going out so time for a new boiler.

Steve it was easier 30 year ago putting them up than it is now taking them down. I hate netaheats, spacesavers, ideal wrx and all the other adapted wall mounted floor standers :smile:
