My first cylinder install with boiler

Well I have to ask how did you get on with the wiring remember when you started you wouldn't of touched it ?

Lol you know what.. I was really excited to do it as it was my first fresh system and the wiring was no issue.. wired it up, switched it on and everything worked!! Happy days! Had to check the cylinder stat wiring as I’ve never done that before but yeah.. probably the easiest part of the whole job.. who’d have thought eh 😉

I love wiring a fresh centre where nobody else has ever been. Like a fresh virgins honey pot.😀😉

Enough space to be able to remove them if they need replacing or stick a pump in if need recharging.. ah mate, time is my nemesis, all in it probably took me about 10/11 days. I’m not the quickest guy in the world!!

Nothing wrong with that mate and it looks awesome. One for the portfolio.

I literally called my mate last night about this. Have not touched an unvented in ages. And now I have been to 4 in the last week. All Miles apart from each other. Whilst I have you all, went to this yesterday. There is a whole world of issues but not sure about this one? Vaillant unvented 260L cylinder on an EcoTec plus 837 combi and the expansion tank is piped straight into the inlet control valve. If I remember correctly this shouldn’t be like that, but a second opinion would be good.

Expansion has to be between the inlet valve and cylinder..

 

[Harvest Fields]

That’s what my understand is but I’m sure i have seen somewhere that on the Vaillant’s they set up differently. But waiting for Vaillant to email instructions out.

It can be piped into the control block / manifold but it needs to be in the right port eg the expansion one and not the balanced cold

Glad I have asked for the instructions now.
