Mend Baxi LS80T Boiler Repair Plumber

So it needs a new diaphragm?

I've decided to change the diaphragm on my LS80T after reading articles on here. I have ordered the part but could someone please tell me if it is a complicated job? I've had a plumber quote me £120 for changing it. He said it should normally be £180. Is this something I could do myself?

Many thanks.

Ezypart Part#: DKS1 Ravenheat £14.00
Diaphragm Kit to fit specific Giannoni diverter valves
To fit, simply undo the 4 screws on the valve and replace with the new diaphragm and spindle.

Do turn off the mains water supply first.
Also place a bowl beneath to catch the water that comes out. Switch off electric supply to boiler.
Ive replaced mine different make but simple enough --hope this helps --just take your time.
