That's a ridiculous price :o I paid £111.87 inc vat and delivery from a company called Lincs Gas whom I found with a google search. The part was brand new and genuine. I'm not affiliated with them in anyway except as an impressed customer. I hope it's alright to provide company names etc...

Well you were correct in that I had a leak on an elbow joint. I've renewed the elbow and hopefully this will stop the pressure drops. I wonder why I had all the problems at the same time. Before the failed sanitary block I had no problems with leaky pipes. Thanks to all who replied it's much...

Thanks to all who have replied. I intend to investigate all the above this weekend and will keep you all updated. Thanks in advance Michael

I don't think it's a leak in the radiators/pipes as if the boiler isn't switched on the pressure stays at 1 bar. Also if I put a jug under the outside plastic condensate pipe there's a lot of water ejected into it whereas I never noticed the drain being wet before I replaced the parts. Anything...

Sorry to be a pain but can anyone answer my question. If I need the heat exchanger i'd like to order it ASAP so I can fit it on the weekend. Thanks in advance Michael

Can anybody tell me if I can externally test my heat exchanger before I order a new one. At £105 I'd like to be sure that it is faulty. Thanks Michael
