I just moved into a house that has this boiler and the previous owners didn't leave the manual behind, nor was the manual I found online very helpful. This video helped me to get things set up really quickly. Thank you for taking the time out to show people how to use this!
Omg you have helped me so much, my pressure was low & had no clue which button to adjust. Was planning on phoning in sick as I couldn't imagine going to work without bathing. I followed your how to steps & now my water is hot again. Thank you so very much🥰
Thank you so much. Came home today and no heating. Realised boiler pressure had dropped. The user guide was useless. But your video helped sort the problem out. Very much appreciated.
Can I just say your a life saver !!! Iv had a pressure issue for days and Youv just got my heating back on !!
Very good tutorial on setting the temperatures on the boiler. Easy to understand and follow, as explanation is clear and detailed. Thank you.
Thank you for the video, my boiler was using £1 to £1.50 a day on standby, I did not understand why until I found this video. The comfort setting was on .british grass fitted it and did not go over the functions 3 years ago :)
Excellent vid. I am a non DIY man. I know the difference between a hammer and a nail but that's it!!! With your vid, I just sorted out my boiler. Now, thanks to you I know what to do. Thank you. You da man!!!
Thanks this is my exact boiler though I do have the manual 24 hr time clock as well. I found you when I was looking for how to control the preheat function. You explained it very well.
Thank you. I was looking to shave diwn the gas bill (aren't we all!) and i found this very helpful. I found the heating set to a whopping 75 and the comfort button on... now set to your recommended levels and i can see how it goes. Thank you!

I read that if the water is not over a certain temperature there is risk of leggionnaires disease ! “Yjd primary method used to control the risk from Legionella is water temperature control. Water services should be operated at temperatures that prevent Legionella growth: Hot water storage cylinders (calorifiers) should store water at 60°C or higher.”
Thank you Mark for this straightforward and informative tutorial - much better than the DVD that came with my Vaillant Ecotec Pro 28 back in 2013. I knew most of it but you have cleared up a couple of issues. Well done.
Thank you so much. Now I know so much more about my boiler. Will be enjoying it being more efficient.
Brilliant video, turns out my Vaillant ecotec pro28 has been in comfort mode since I've been in this house in 2015, and I'd always wondered why it was turning on randomly night and day! Even the plumber didn't know

It's summer, htg temp room dial is off, hot water taps off, yet my boiler fires up for no reason for minutes?
Been in my house for a while and never really understood some of this so thank you.
Thank you for the reply concerning the need for an engineer. Much appreciated!
Great!! It worked. Thank you fir an easy to follow and informative video. Plumbers in general are no good. They guess and most under qualified.
Thank you for your video,I am new to these boiler,you have solved my problem.Thank you very much.
Brilliant this is what I really want to see. Thanks for the tutorial 👍
This is my boiler! Thank you very much for helping me to adjust it and Save ze Moneys ! : )
Many thanks, I've saved money thanks to you, I hope you will keep doing kind of videos😊
Thanks so much Mark, you helped me to figure out how to turn off the comfort function

If only they had a button switch on off for Comfort, that's too easy of course!
Excellent video, very clear and helpful. Thanks
Thanks so much, helped a lot with an issue with our boiler 👍🏻
Excellent video, best 'tutorial' I have seen / used on any device
Scotland, today it's getting cold now, I'm 70 & scared to adjust my boiler settings. Hot water is easy to understand but central htg what is correct temperature. I live in a 2 bedroom bungalow. Also it's summer, htg off, hot taps not running, my boiler fires up for minutes for no reason? Ok, done the tutorial at the boiler & now I know why it fires up as said - COMFORT! its now off. Set hw & will see how that goes & raise or lower. Htg, also now set at 55c & will monitor. Only thing is my rads also have a adjuster for them, not too sure on that, maybe Tango Mark can help there too. I was going to call the council house people but no need now & they wouldn't know as much as Mark. Glad I Googled this, the wonders of the internet. Thanks Mark (can you tidy my house?!).
Thank you soooooo much how you did explain to the uk public Thanks again
Very Clear Instructions , Thank You
And thank you so much for your easy video in understanding my boiler its so helpful tgank you.
My boiler technician had me raise the temperature on the tap water. He said it was a better choice if you want to avoid listeria.
Thanks for your video. It was really helpful.
Thank you so much it was incredibly helpful
brilliant thank you..just had one of these installed,,
Thank you for this video Appreciate it.
Well done, Mark!
Thank you this video was very useful 👍
Thanks Mark just reset my hot water.
Great video, but I'm missing the installers menu where in my opinion sits the most important setting: d000 - output power. This is the real money saver. It's default set to the maximum power consumption. I've set to 6kw which still keeps my house warm but only cost me 5,7 m3 gas per hour. Also, like others mention, do not set the hot water below 55 c degrees
Thank you so much for the advice
Thank you. Very helpful.
Very helpful ... thank you very much
Very very helpful thank you Mr🎉🎉
I realy learned something about heating the right way thank you! I just have the same boiler and sometimes there is a blinking sand watch left from the temperature indicator any idea what that means?
Brilliant instruction.. thanks
Great video, easy to understand. Many thanks for making it simple !
An excellent tutorial.
Fantastic tutorial ,clear and concise.Thank you. One question ,what temperature would you set for UFH ,i have ceramic tiles for best heat conduction ,but set at 43 thermostats never seem to get to temperature .is there a band of acceptable temperature range to set boiler to dependant on outside temperature ?
I have the eco tec pro 28 it was installed in 2012 and it has dials for the hot water and flow temperature
Thank you. Useful.
Great video and really helpful. We don't have the silver Flexi hose below ours, just a yellow tap with a + and - . Would that be to fill the system do you think?
Thank you so much
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. Very helpful video!
Good video. Thanks.
Excelent, thanks mate.
👍great explained
HI Mark , great tutorial , I have a problem that after the time hot water became cold and time to recover it was advised to adjust Cylinder temperature D006 could you show how to do this ,thanks
My valiant eco tec plus has been off for central heating for the 3 or so months of summer. Hot waters been fine with no pressure loss or faults. I turned the central heating dial last night and it started but the pressure dropped to zero. I hit the flame button while turning the taps on underside and heard a like a loud switch click noise and fired up, closed the taps and pressure dropped again. So I turned the central heating dial off put the pressure back in the system and hot water works and holds pressure but if I turn that heating dial the pressure goes and I get F75. I pushed the pressure vessel valve in and water shot out.
Great video
Thank you for the video, so that I know something about my boiler, my timer is not working, what timer I want to buy any particular model please advice.
Best tutorial.
THANKYOU , i have a vaillant eco tec pro its quite old maybe 2007 and its a council boiler they are extremely reluctant to advise and each time its checked they turn the radiator and water dials up , i have my rads on around 55 to 60 and water is around 44 so not hot but comfy to wash hands without worrying about being burnt , had this since it was installed , the digital dial doesn't show a c at all so does that mean i don't have pre heat or i don't have an option to turn it off and on . many thanks
Thank you- I'm getting an hourglass flashing on the display, what does it mean?
very helpful
Just got a new boiler installed and had no idea what to do so ta!
I was going to clean my filter the one shown in this video I turned the valves off but when I opened the filter cover water kept dripping out I wanted to empty the filter because I was trying to add some inhibitor fernox but when I emptied the filter with a sponge I could hear more water come in does this mean I have faulty valves the ones with black knobs
Do you have a video about the other, more advanced options of the boiler? Pump speed etc?
Good video 😊
Thank you Sir 🎩
Is there a way to turn on the heating from the boiler itself without using the Heat Link? My Heat Link isn’t working no lights on it at all. I’ve tried holding the button down we’re but won’t come on. Any help would be appreciated 😊
Any plans for a Glowworn Betacom 4 30c?? The plus/minus arrows just say no.
Thank you for your help today I have hot water because of you
My boiler is pushing hot water through a copper pipe that leads outside and onto the yard, any ideas? I tried valiant and was put on hold for more than an hour
How can i tell if my taps to fill it are on or off and its about 3 quarters full is that bad i darent turn my heating on as i heard it can break your boiler if taps are on but its freezing here at moment.
My filling loop has an open exit in between the 2 valves, when I open the valve under the boiler, the water comes out of the exit, and doesn't go into my boiler, I don't understand.
There's been a few gas engineers out to fix the gas but they can't seem to find a problem. I've got a flashing water symbol that won't go off so I'm stuck with no heating, only hot water. Sometimes it goes off itself and the gas will work, but when the symbol appears, the gas goes off again. Do you have any idea how to turn this off?
Hi Mark, in my screen the tap symbol is missing (I can only see the heat symbol). Do you know how I can bring the tap symbol back? Thanks
Thank you for posting. We have this boiler (24w) but there is no clock and no thermostat/ control. Can anyone please tell me how to get the heating going? I hope someone can help. Thank you.
Hi Mark I have vailliant eco tec Pro 28 ..its showing F75 error how do I fix it ? Thanks
Hello, am I right in thinking this boiler doesn’t have a timer? Thanks
Hell the heating is not working using the thermostat or app can I turn the heating on and off from the boiler manually?
Hello.. how do put the central heating on only without the heating? Really struggling
I've had it with my Vaillant Ecotec boiler that I'm this close🤏 to ripping the effing thing off the wall. My boiler is in summer mode (radiator temp set to 'OFF' and displaying the parasol icon), but I've set my hot water temp to 65 and it's not heating up at all - not unless I take the boiler out of summer mode. However, if I do that, then the radiators turn on which I don't want. The programmer on the wall for the water is on 'Timed' and I've pressed the 'Advanced' button, but the damn boiler just sits there at 35 degrees flashing that parasol icon and not doing anything. Please help 😭
Hello my minus button and the button above it for the tap icon don't seem to respond when I push them, my water temperature is a bit and I can't seem to reduce it. Could I have locked the buttons somehow?
What is the meaning of the “temperature that the boiler is at now” (as shown in the display) ? Is it the temperature of the return or the flow?
Great video with clear instructions for the “lay person”. Do you have a similar vid for a Vaillant ecoTec plus 624 linked to a Megaflo hw cylinder and an Honeywell EvoHome controller (with no gateway). I want to reduce my summer time hot water temperature.

Can anyone help me recently had my boiler serviced a “vaillant eco fit sustain” it’s 2 years old and now the water used to go up to 70c I am sure!! Now it’s been serviced it’s gone down to 60c hot water! That’s not hot enough… what have they done to it please ? And how do I get it higher again when it won’t go past 60c ???
When I switch the on button on the for the boiler my heating turns on with it. Which means it’s continuously on. How do I fix this? Thanks
Verry helpfull
If the water temp is set to 55 (for example) but you want your washing machine to do a wash at 60, will it work, or does the water temp need to be at least the temperature of the water you want the wash at?
Hai do we need to switch on the main power on button always
Hi Mark does the Vaillant eco tec 424 have a permanent on setting?

Please assist, don’t know what we have pressed, the pressure gauge drops from 3 to 1.3 and continued to drop, How to increase the pressure again? I watched the video, however sorry I still not get it. Please accept my foul and have further explanation to this 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Good video, but my boiler is slightly different display, and I just wish I could ring someone to ask
12:39 my boiler is turning off when i turn water on . This has been after i had to change my faulty thermostat
I have an ecotec pro 28 but it has none of these dials, it is analog not digital and recently my hot water has become colder
There is no mention of the timer symbol? The ‘hour glass’ symbol.
