We had this boiler fitted recently, but when it's running it leaves a bit of a gassy smell in the room, although not quite as acrid as the smell of unburnt natural gas. I was under the impression that from the gas valve onward (i.e. the bits likely to smell) should be in the sealed part of the casework. Is it likely that if flue wasn't making a good seal with the casework that there would be this kind of smell in the room? Or should it not even smell if the cover is off?
My gas detector picks nothing up, and the CO meter stays at 0ppm.
Should these boilers be completely odourless when running?
My gas fitter is on holiday at the moment but will be back next week, but don't want to call him out if this is just the smell of new parts getting warm.
