Sorry if sounded a bit sharp...but after 30 odd years in the trade,repairing and fitting boilers,I might of rang a Tech support of a boiler maker..err..couple of times,years ago,if I want to know a flue systems limitations or if a unit is suitable,I ring the sales side,or e mail,,have seen lots of engineers given the right run around by tech support also.....but know some engineers keep support on the line for ages,with them trying to explain the simplest of things or procedures,which is one of the reasons they started to charge ...once you know how a certain type of boiler works,and how to use correct test equipment,you should be able to cover most boilers
You can learn and carry knowledge around with you or pay for some over a phone...and hope it is the knowledge you need

Thanks everyone............... except for the drip. I'm happy for you having an all encompassing knowledge of every boiler ever made and I hope that one day you can pass your omniscience onto others. I feel humbled inhabiting the same planet as one so gifted and hope that one day I can achieve such greatness!

so you never need to ring the manufacturer then ,so you have every thermistor resistance,fan and gasvalve in your head and you also know from memory specific gas pressures and fga readings ,you also know every part number
