biasi pava?? sounds like a dessert from marks and spencers.
and err no.
and err no.
I think he means a "Parva" rather than a "Pavlova".
If he could explain what he means by "cutting out" then I could tell him whats likely to be wrong!
I use scissors for cutting but have never seen any inside a boiler! ( I once found a bag of hash though! )

I have just bought a flat which has a Biasi Parva boiler manufacturered Sep 2001. We are doing some plumbing works and are thinking whether we should replace the boiler? Are they reliable? What is the expected life of these boilers?

How do you keep the system water clean?
The system should be power flushed or adequately chemically cleaned when the boiler is installed and Inhibitor added and topped up each year.
Fitting a magnetic filter on the return ( e.g. a Magnaclean ) is often done as a way to reduce the problems when a system has not been properly treated at the outset.

If the current system pipework is over 10 years old, powerflushing may find all the weak spots in the system and you may well end up with a flat that looks like a giant sprinkler.
In these instances it is far wiser to chemically clean using the old boiler, simply add Sentinel X400 to the current c/h system and run the system full on for as long as possible for up to 2 weeks.
Then set about flushing each radiator and all the pipework, until the water running throughout runs clean. There are varying methods for doing this.
Finally after installing your new condensing combi DO NOT forget to add inhibitor, Sentinel X100, which is available in cartridge form to inject directly into any radiator on sealed systems.

and then dont forget that if you ever drain the system for any reason, go and buy another cartridge of X100 insert into system and refill.
