Hello again and welcome to http://www.aquaheat.org.uk my name is Steve and weíre on another installation
of a Worcester Bosch Highflow 550 that weíve installed in Streatham (South West London).
Again, here weíve removed the boiler that was up at a high level, up here and we had
a load of pipework here and weíve redesigned the system to run a new system. Down here,
at low level weíve run our pipework along here all at the back. These are great, these
Highflow boilers, they sit on theÖ theyíre floor mounted and you know, they go right
back you can put the worktop on. They canít always go right at the back because youíve
got to leave a certain amount for pipework and servicing. So you have to remember that.
On this particular boiler, youíve got a cylinder which does your hot water control, for the
hot water in here, at this point here, 45 litres of stored hot water. Which gives you
an increased hot water flow rate, which you would get from a standard combi boiler, up
to 22 litres per minute ñ thatís provided youíve got adequate cold mains pressure coming
in. So the beauty of this system is if itís designed to the right system you can sort
of get two showers going at the same time, provided your original pipework is adequately
sized. On our control panel here, weíve got a power button here, central heating control
here and then weíve got hot water control here. Weíve got a temperatureÖ We can time
our hot water on this side and then we can time our central heating on this side. This
is an optional extra, this is called a DT20RF that we supply and fit with the boilers. This
also comes under the warranty, as Iím a Worcester Bosch approved installer, so I can offer you
the customer, the extended warranty, which at the moment is a five year warranty. This
covers parts and labour on the boiler itself, so anything that goes wrong with the boiler,
youíll be covered and that is directly with Worcester Bosch ñ which is a great deal.
And, so thatís it really. Youíve gotÖ Itís a really good piece of kit for what it does
and the fact that it can be sort of situated on the floor. The flue is straight down at
the back not on the top; out the back there weíve got the flue. Weíve run the condense
pipe out there, which is fully lagged and thatís that there. So this just fits back
into here like so and there we go. Nice little bit of kit. Then outside here weíve got a
wired stat, situated just up here. Itís got a temperature at the moment at 19; weíve
got the flame on telling the boiler to come on. Thatís it really. So if youíd like information
about this or any other job, please drop us an email to info@aquaheat.org.uk. Thanks very
much.
