I have a baxi boiler situated in the loft. In situ for about 12 years. The flue outlet is horisontal through the end wall.
After recent heavy rain and strong winds water "got in" and blew the electical board.
There is no water around the exterior of the boiler so the assumption is it came in through the flue due to the exceptional weather conditions.
I've had no further problems so as this was about a month ago unlikely to be one of the other suggestions (from the maintenance policy contractor).
Is there a simple solution to protect the flue from further bad weather water ingress.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.
