Well I’m glad I went with a fixed price, not fixed yet but gas accutator valve and another valve of some description ordered parts in the region of £300 retail…will find out Friday if they sort the ignition issues. Boiler is 5 years old, 1 month out of warranty….
The big negative…the engineer thinks the gas supply pipe is too small a diameter, and has told us the flue is wrong and needs replacing as there is a risk of water condensing and running back into the boiler. It is odd as it runs the width of the house (5m ish) rather than out the nearest wall. Fantastic.
We asked for a quote, he said ‘expensive’ and will let us know on Friday. Any experience of flue replacements what sort of cost should I be bracing myself for?
