dont know if you find the same tom,admittedly its mainly icos i see so not as stressed as a isar,but if its stripped down every year and the ionization probes or pins are checked for condition and correct location they dont need changing obviously different story if there damaged that goes for insulation as well if its cracked new expensive one piece affair requiredi found one like that when I worked at the council.
No one had ever changed the earth pins and the insulation had fell onto the burner causing the flame to burn through the heat exchanger.
I found it on a service, the boiler had been working fine and the tenant hadn't reported a breakdown or anything.
God knows how long it had been like that for.
We recommend City Plumbing Supplies, BES, and Plumbing Superstore for all plumbing supplies.
