Hi there, I have a 20+ years old chaffoteaux britony ii water boiler in an old wooden house in Cornwall. I think the valve is failing as it takes up to 6 hours to light after turning the propane gas on. My choice is either to find a replacement valve and fit it, or try and find a replacement boiler. The Chaffoteaux went out of production years ago and I'm a bit dubious about buying on old one off ebay, as I may get one with problems inherent. Any ideas on alternative replacement boilers I could fit?
