Seems like I will have to change the fan on a vuw 286EH. never done one on these, any particular difficulties I should watch out for like seals that should come off but don’t?
 
Its just that I find the Vaillant numbers/names very confusing.

The low numbers were usually older boilers and the later ones usually higher numbers like 637, 824/828, 937 etc.

It sounds as if this may be the ill fated one with horizontal finned bars HE and an upside down burner and a long flattenned flue tube on the left.

If so they did not usually last more than five years and I thought there were few left. I have an old one in our store!

Or it may be another one !

I think I have one in my lockup too. I thought it might be useful for spares, but I've never seen another one like it!

Ill-fated? :( Tempting fate, this one has been performing fine for 9 years or so.

vaillant names are indeed confusing, never understood why they call it ecomax and then some mysterious lot of letters and numbers to go with it
 
And the 25 digit serial numbers.... whats that all about. There cant be that many boilers in the whole wide world. Can there?
