Hello guys,
Our Vaillant 242 E Combi boiler has been looked at by British Gas yesterday and we have been told that it needs a new expansion vessel, which is fine. However, BG say that the expansion vessel that goes inside the boiler is not available anymore, so they want to install and external one above the boiler.
My question is, do any of you know whether or not the expansion vessel (10 litre) for a Vaillant 242 E is still available or not.
I suspect, as I am always a bit cynical that BG cannot be bothered to take the boiler apart to replace the internal one as it is a fairly big job, so simply want to install the easier option of an external one.
I don't want to take BG word for it and have a great big red tank on the wall if I don't need to.
All help greatfully received guys, thank you.
