🔧🔥 Ideal Boiler Repair – Fault Diagnosed & Resolved 🔥🔧

A recent call-out to an Ideal Heating boiler experiencing:

• Poor hot water performance
• System over-pressurising

Following full diagnostics, the fault was traced to a failed diverter valve along with an expansion vessel that required re-pressurising.

Work carried out:

✔ Replaced diverter valve
✔ Re-pressurised expansion vessel
✔ Checked and balanced system pressures
✔ Fully tested and recommissioned

Hot water restored and the system now operating at the correct pressure.

Over-pressurising can cause unnecessary stress on components and lead to leaks or further damage if left unresolved — early diagnosis is key.

With over 20 years’ experience in the heating industry, including 10 years working directly for Vaillant, Boiler Doctor & Son provide proper fault-finding — not guesswork.

If your boiler is losing pressure, over-pressurising or giving inconsistent hot water, get it checked before it becomes a bigger issue.

🔥 50+ Year Old Ideal E Type Boiler Replaced – Another Upgrade by Boiler Doctor & Son 🔥

This week we removed a tired old floor-standing appliance that had been in service for over 50 years.

Reliable in its day — but inefficient, oversized and well beyond modern efficiency standards.

Out with the old cast-iron unit…
In with a modern high-efficiency Vaillant system designed for today’s homes.

The result:

✔ Improved energy efficiency
✔ Lower running costs
✔ Safer, cleaner combustion
✔ Compact wall-mounted installation
✔ Future-proof heating system
✔️ 10 Years Parts and Labour Warranty

Proud moment having my son working alongside me as part of his apprenticeship while studying at Barnsley College. Passing on over 20 years of experience properly — keeping the trade strong for the next generation.

If your boiler has been running since the 1970s… it may be time for an upgrade.

✔ Improved energy efficiency
✔ Lower gas consumption
✔ Quieter operation
✔ Greater reliability
✔ Full compliance with current regulations
✔️ 10 Years Parts and Labour Warranty as standard on this model

With over 20 years’ experience in the heating industry, including 10 years working directly for Vaillant this isn’t just a boiler swap — it’s a specialist installation completed to manufacturer standards.

System fully flushed, correctly configured and properly commissioned for long-term performance.

If your boiler looks like the first photo… it may be time for an upgrade.
