Best leaving the electrodes in so you can check position to burner whilst it’s out. No graphite seal to replace either unlike when you take electrodes out.

Nice detailed work. I'm curious why the vitodens is being swapped seeing as you've just stripped and cleaned it proper and far as I'm aware it's still a pretty efficient model wasn't the only issue remaining a filling loop? Seems mad to have a boiler exchange over a filling loop unless I'm missing something

A little trick I do with regular customers where I havn't had to do any work is charge them just enough to cover fuel and time, instead of a full hour's charge. This keeps everyone happy. If you do a job for free, they don't appreciate it and quickly forget, but if you charge them £31 they think that's really cheap, and you have covered your fuel and lunch money.
