Hi folks, (skip to the end to get to the question)
I've got a Linea 28 boiler which was showing error code 04 and 0 pressure. When attempting to restore pressure water began leaking from inside the boiler at around 0.5 bar. A plumber was called and he diagnosed the problem as a fault with the "air separator". The offending part would cost £150 plus V.A.T. plus labour at £55 per hour. Now I'm from the north and we don't part with our cash easily so I've done a bit of research and found out the plumber has ordered a complete pump assembly including the "air separator" as the said part is not available separately. Having read through the service manual I've located the pump assembly and found the automatic air vent bottle, part no. 4254.
So my question is do I need the full pump or just the air vent ?
The boiler is now working fine but only at 0.5 bar.
Cheers in advance, Col.
