Thermocouple wanted

Sponsored Links

Certainly looks like specialist parts Jon.

They are indeed. Hard to find now! OP is going with new boiler though. Shame really that Glowworm would probably outsee any new boiler looked after well.

He's buying a new boiler just because his old one wants a new thermocouple!? Madness, must have money to burn. I expect he goes out and buys a brand new car every time the tyres on his existing one wear out as well! Certainly not a typical Scotsman...

Aqua he may have been told that part number but thats not the correct part number for the t/couple for his boiler. Its prob the t/couple part number for a mk2 fuelsaver that had interupter on the gas valve.
 
When I told the little woman that I was getting a replacement part she was none too pleased especially when a company had phoned to say that they could install a new boiler on Monday. Its cold up here!! There was no guarantee that a new thermocouple would work. The Glow Worm has given me 32 years of uninterrupted service which I do not expect anything like from a modern boiler.

My thanks to Jon for his help and kind offer, just sorry for wasting his time.

Jings, I've just noticed that the ashtray is full in my Ferrari :).
 
Do me a favour to satisfy curiosity could you take the bottom tray off and take a photo of the right hand side of boiler controls . thanks

What are they offering to fit, just out of interest?

If you promise not to slag it off - Ideal Logic + 30kW

Fair enough. Long warranty, hopefully they've sorted the casting issues with the heat exchangers by now
 
Good choice. Ideal are on the up and I believe that they have some outstanding engineers in Scotland if you do have any issues. I have fitted quite a few and they have performed well.

Only just seen this thread - fairly certain I have one of those thermocouples in my stock pile. Will mark it as a rare part.
 
Cheers, can you get one of side view of right side. cheers

Great boiler but get the 35 for better HW
