I am not trying to scare anybody, payment does not come into the frame. To replace the thermocouple on this boiler you have to access the inner parts of the boiler which means breaking the seal on the combustion chamber, that means you have carried out 'work' on that boiler and you then and I quote''Where a person carries out work on a gas appliance he shall immediately thereafter examine:
a, the effectiveness of any flue;
b,the supply of combustion air;
c,its operating pressure or heat input, or where necessary,both;
d, its safe functioning.
Does that really sound like the sort of thing joe public is qualified to do ? Lets face it some things are best left to those who know what they are doing and are suitably qualified to do it.
