I moved in to a new build home and 3 years later (after the builders warranty expires) the boiler is slipping off the wall at one side.
This is putting pressure on the flue. Not something I’m happy with.

Hello - I have a Ideal 35kw combi gas boiler. Everything was fine until I switched the heating on for the first time this year. Then I got a L2 Ignition lockout error, and resetting the boiler doesn't fix it. The gas is definitely on, and the pressure is fine - any ideas? Thank you!
