Re: new boiler
The problem might be Annie, is lack of training, I’ve been in this situation many times, stood in front of a washing machine or dishwasher, without a clue how to even start the damn thing, you had to struggle through it and try your best, maybe the guys you had were in the same situation...13-02-2021, 11:30 AM

More than one joker wanted to replace all the radiators. for about £4k. The trouble is that different engineers contradicted each other and were from the same company! There was absolutely nothing wrong with the radiators because they are all working superbly now.
The WB engineer was super intelligent and also had integrity. So for anyone going down this route I would recommend their accredited engineers because we had a very good experience.

Until the bosch engineer that is. I knew he was good when I saw he had his underpants on over his trousers.
If they weren't, they should be doing work like that and you should report them.
If they were, then they definitely shouldn't be doing work like that and should definitely not carry a Corgi card. Again, report them.
Interesting. Do all Bosch engineers wear their underpants over their trousers?

Re: new boiler
I would think the Bosch engineer would be fully trained on Bosch boilers that is probably all he will see on a day to day basis and will have the technical support of Bosch, however,it doesn’t excuse the poor installation that should have been correct from day one, btw, it is gas safe register|
