Baxi Solo PF 80 fan / serial number

[BillyT63]

Hi

I need to order a replacement fan for a Baxi Solo PF 80, only problem is that the part could be one of 2 possible part numbers, depending on the serial number of the boiler.

The Baxi doc. says
'up to serial no. 8999' , GC 364-979
'after serial no. 9000' , GC 170-615.

The only serial number I can see is on the front of the combustion box, and it is 98-37-004661230948-02-02. GC number for the boiler is 41-077-75.

So is this the serial number I need ? and so 9837 is after 9000, so I need fan part number 170-615.

Sorry if this is a really dumb question, but I need to be sure.
Thanks
Bill

You could ask baxi how the serial number system works, might be the last few digits of the long number but ask them as knows.

Or ring Geof at c.ontrol e.ngineering t.ecknowlogy with your old fan in front of you, describe what you are looking at and he will ask you questions like has it got a seam running down horizontal or is it vertical and stuff like that. Then he's supply you a recon unit.

Or ring spotty faced tubs of lard at parts centre and they won't have a clue what you are on about. Fan? a what? for what? That's not a bAxi part no.

Then ring Gas spares preston and you'll get someone who is really switched on that may have your answer and will certainly stock the part.

I have the same problem.

Are the first four numbers of the serial number the ones I am looking for ie in your case 9837 - is after 9000, thus the one you required was - 'after serial no. 9000' , GC 170-615.
