I am trying to find part name / part number but can;t see...also checked manual but doesn't help. Please advice where i can find relevant information about part and where i can buy it.

In the centre next to a circular object? The plastic nut is attached to something called a flowswitch
Your eyes will weep more when you find out the price of one

Thanks. It is circular object...flowswitch..really get tears when checked the price.


it;s seems to be old boiler so not sure how long repair will last...
Thinking whether need to go ahead to replace or dig deep to replace boiler.

any suggestions please.
