Not ideal, would prefer soldered joint, but there are millions like that

It forms part of the non return valve inside.

As long as the fire passes a flue flow, and spillage test, no additional ventilation is required, as the heat input is less than 7kw.

If the display reads 00 then it hasn't got a call for heating from the themostat?programmer.

My money would be on blocked condensate pipe/trap, or spark generator, you'll need a gas man in for those.

Those plastic things are pants, change it for a brass one.
