Vokera Excell Boiler Spare Part

[CMcKeown]

You could always ask manufacturer for local independent service agents. It'll cost you for a visit but may save fitting a new boiler.

I have asked Vokera and they said the part is obselete.

 

[CMcKeown]

Tony would you fabricate such a baffle from sheet metal? Furthermore, would you then undersign the task as having been carried out by yourself?

OP, have you seen the broken baffles?

No I haven't seen anything, I am just taking the guys from British Gas's word for it, I am a female and have no idea whatsoever about any of it, British Gas have left me a piece of paper with the boiler name and part number needed and a friend suggested I contacted this site to see if anyone could help me.

How did Scottish Gas get involved in this debacle? Have they been servicing your boiler or did you call them out to fix your boiler?

I have a service agreement with them.

So, if their CPSs were servicing? the appliance, it must of been a CPS(cowboy in polo shirt) that damaged/lost the baffle??? Cause as Danny has said & I agree with, never seen a baffle damaged on a boiler like yours!!

thats so full of holes im not even going to bother.

 

[RichardBothwell]

No, only one hole son, for one screw, at the front where the CPS should have re-fixed the baffle through!!

 

[RichardBothwell]

Perhaps if you put up your contact details, some kind fella will contact you & provide the part.........

not diving in but there are actually two screw holes.

keep peddling your ****e.

 

[RichardBothwell]

Ah, so you are maintaining SG are covering themselves in glory here?? Sorry, but that's not the thread I'm reading or the customer service they are renowned for!!

Oh well, if it's two screws, that'll explain why they didn't refit it??!!

not diving in but there are actually two screw holes.

Actually its just ONE hole at the back and one SLOT at the front.

These are not part of the combustion process but to divert the cold air flow away from the sides of the heat exchanger to prevent unecessary cooling.

Thats why I would not have any worries on seeing a boiler with one missing but its difficult to imagine why one would ever be left out.

Thanks for that Telly Tony, as always I value your comments. From my poor recollection of the appliance, I thought the screw(singular) was at the front & a hook at the back.

However, as we all know, there's only one expert on Vokera on this forum. My highly respected pal DP, for whom I'm eternally grateful.

 

[DP]

Thank you for a kind word big man.

 

[glasgowgas]
