Baxi Bermuda Firefront Problems

[alecroy]

Hi guys, hope you can help
I have a Baxi back boiler system in my flat. As far as I have been told it is over 20 years old. The central heating runs fine but the firefront is not igniting across all four china grills. The same happened last year so I took the cover off used a small wire toothbrush on the nozzle and thorougly hoovered it all out, this worked great. I have done the same this year and still the central two grills will not glow hot, the flame is present at the base but it will not spread up the china. I have rearranged the china grills to eliminate them as a possible fault. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

When was it last serviced by an RGI? Get it done - he/she will fix. Prolly the boiler too.

Thanks Steve, the central heating works fine, the fire lights firstime but the flame does not seem to spread properly. The safety check was carried out in September but not sure when it was serviced. I would not contemplate changing mechanical parts but it seems like a simple fault as it all works - sort of!

Service required bit of muck in the wrong place..

i have added a couple of words to your quote, and would suggest you get both appliances serviced to ensure they work fine
horrible conversation to have at a FAI " i didnt think that would happen"
