My mother has the above model in her flat using it for hot water only.
I called someone out recently to do a service on it. Before taking the front cover off he said ' I don't like the look of that'.
when the cover was removed he said that there was some rust round the burner area and he wouldn't be able to carry out the service, To sort it out would cost £2900 + vat which included replacing the whole unit.
So I thanked him and he left.
I contacted J& S and a new hex is only about £300 , If that were to be changed does it open a can of worms that could lead to more bits need replacing? in other words is the price quoted about right for replacing the whole unit? any thought would be handy
Thanks
