I had a local guy around yesterday, as I suspected he can get all the parts I need and fix the boiler. Once he has done this I will look at a newer system, BG won't get a look in though! I also moved my dual fuel from BG as well yesterday.

Mine was just as you discribe minus the o-rings

Have some better news, I found (via the energy saving trust) a plumber who lives 5 doors down from me. In addition he did the corgi work like gas etc from the previous owner, and even serviced the boiler for the owner before him! So he is coming around on Saturday to look at the problems...

[/url] That’s part of the issue. Honeywell who make that part, say the maker of boiler should provide the seals. The boiler people have little or no information, so I end up getting nowhere with BG If Honeywell sell this as part without the seals then surely it must be able to be installed?

I got that impression, he told me he went to a call before me and had to charge someboday £99 to replace some batteries (the cost per fix under the Homecare package they were on) He didn't really give me the impresson he was happy doing stuff like that.

It was an BG engineer at my house that told me all of this, I watched him call around looking for a solution. I thought he was doing the best he could, but I also get the feeling that the BG processes are structure to ensure the “new boiler” solution is arrived at as quickly as possible.

BG said it was against HSE for them to use the exisiting seals!
