Hi,
Just to fill you in briefly i rent my property and therefore my boiler is service and maintained by My landlord and any subcontractors they use
the boiler is a Baxi Solo 2 40pf i believe
in December the fan assembly in the combustion box was changed and that remedied an issue with the boiler not functioning correctly.
On the 23 of March this year i had to call the landlord to report a further fault of the boiler (it has been troublesome throughout the tenancy) and a different engineer came and immediately condemned the unit due to the Flue restrictor missing off the back of this fan, now currently to this date i have had no boiler due to this issue and after several promises im still stuck at square one.
Now to try and get my landlord to pull his finger out of his backside i spoke to a few people who claim they know what they talking about but i need to make sure, now as my boiler ran from december through to 23rd March this year without this flue restrictor I am told that this is extremely dangerous and this could cause gasses that are ommited by the fan to seap back into the boiler to an ignition source now if that is the case im assuming that means a expolosion/fire risk??
Does this sound correct and is there any site or source i can use to back up andy dangers lack of effiency or anything to present to my landlord asap
Will appreciate any help anyone can give me
Thanks
