15 years isnt that old...is it an Ideal classic? whats wrong with it??Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..0

Hi, I am told the heat exchange unit has gone and is leaking. I am told they stopped making these 16 years ok.0

the heat exchange unit is leaking and needs replacing but British Gas is having difficulty getting all the spares0

If you are in receipt of some kind of welfare benefits it can be replaced for free under the Warmfront Grant.0

We've previously used these for gas work and they've been ok (never had them work on the boiler though). Please don't take these as recommendations but rather suggestions:
Thane Gas Services - 023 92421148
Taskforce (they are in Emsworth) - 01243 6988670 -
Can you be more specific about the exact model..??
Is it this one...??

Be aware that BG might want to sell you a new boiler rather than repair under service contract..?

It's 15 years old and they stopped making parts 16 years ago??0 -
Get a Worcester installed and use an accredited installer. These can offer 5 years parts and labour and all you do is ring worcester should a problem arise.
Don't go to BG0 -
I would also be wary of the name mentioned above, as the gas safe registrar has no picture or address.
Gas safe members has information like this person gassaferegister.co.uk/registersearch/Engineers.aspx?businessid=21608¢reid=19706&returnurl=../FindBusiness.aspx&returnname=Find%20a%20business&reload=true0
