Hi guys,
went to to a powermax last night, looks like expansion vessel has failed. As I've just been made aware of the safety alert with these boilers, decided to call Potterton and ask for advice. What a waste of time, she advised that the boiler I was at is within the range of the affected boilers via the serial number, I asked her what should I be doing to ensure that the boiler is fine to be left on. She told me all I need to do is tell the customer to phone up Potterton to make an appointment to have the boiler looked at.
i asked her what happens if I leave the boiler on and she dies before they come out to inspect! Told her I need to cover myself. She said it's very rare for the problem to occur. So after getting nowhere, I put the phone down and took a peek inside the boiler, noticed that there was some kind of corrosion going on, on the aluminium/cast elbow for the air intake inside the boiler. That said to me that there must be wet vapours from the flue leaking inside the boiler for this to occur
i ID'ed it as I'm not going prison for anyone. Anyone agree with what I've done?
