British Gas has condemned our boiler as the heat exchanger is leaking onto the circuit board.
We currently pay boiler care cover and thought that this would be covered, but the engineer who was actually a nice bloke said look i'll need to call my boss to see if we can cover this.
Couple of minutes later he said sorry my boss said its not covered as we were previously advised to do a powerflush.
He said he could fit the parts but it would cost us £400 or get British Gas to call us with a quote for a new boiler, which i said no just leave it.
When the guy was putting it back together I said, so if i had got the flush would the parts be replaced and he said no due to the parts that had already been fitted previously.
Would this cause the exchanger to leak and can the engineer determine thats why it failed even without taking the exchanger out ?
I know Im not going to get anywhere with this and just feeling frustrated as it will be a couple of months before i could get money together for a new boiler which i know i need
Thanks
