    British Gas 330+ Boiler

    Usually ends up very noisy in the combustion due to lack of proper cleaning of the very poor heat exchanger. Sumps pin hole (less common these days) sump outlets pin hole very often and wiping the build up off to hide it isn’t a fix. The flue outlets at the top of the sump outlet are now...
