    Ideal Classic NF40

    Went to do a service on the above boiler today. I automatically assumed that it was on an open vent, so did the service, put it all back together but thought I'd check the airing cupboard anyway, and luckily I did. They had last year upgraded from vented to unvented and it's now a sealed system...
