Glow-worm Capricorn 240/6 - Age?

[Marko0]

Hi,
I have a Glow-worm Capricorn 240/6 back boiler. Does anyone happen to know what age it's likley to be (Pre 1980, 1980-1984,or 1985-1990)?
Thanks,
Mark

Last one i worked on was put in around 1975 i believe

 

[gas4you]

At least 20 years , probably more like 30

The Installation Instructions for this model I have is dated 1984.

Thanks.
It's just for an energy saving questionnaire.
I'm going to go with Pre 1980, since Pablo worked on one in around 1975.
The style looks late 70s, and it's labelled to conform with B.S. standard 1977.

Cheers,
Mark

Could be an trick question

The 240 back boiler is 75/76, However the /6 fire front is much later 80/81 as far as I can work out

First gloworm was the GP40 replaced by the galaxie which was replaced by the majorca2/majorca 3 which where still about 74ish then came the capricorn

But they were all 240 namsag, the 240/6 was later, by my reckoning 80/81, 79 at the earliest.

There was also the Camelot, Galaxie, and Royale which fitted the 240 boiler.
