Both flue and air held together with cooking grease.

Spent the first hour cleaning!

We’re they Smokers aswell ?
 
Looks a bit damaged to me o_O

Both air and flue cracked in the centre of all 4 sides. Residents complaining of headaches...co escaping.

The closest flue brackets (unistrut/threaded rod), only had 1 screw holding it up. The screw and plug where half out, clips/pipes all wonky.

Can see any other reason for the spigot breaks apart from the weight of the unsupported flue/air.

Crappy ex council install.
 
Evening mate. Have you sent either me, @ShaunCorbs or @Riley your gas safe details over?


Hey buddy. Sent to Lou recently, still awaiting confirmation.

I’ll send you a copy now.

Cheers

As CBW1982 flue connector spigots look broken! If so I.D. it & replace them.

Another firm ID it, I went to fix.

Both broke, one of the pics is me lifting the spigot while the bolts are still done up on the boiler.

Cracked all the way through.

Renewed spigot, some flue/air, clips, full service, grease clean, additional access panel for inspection in ceiling.

The fittings below are for a mixer bar attached to a self contained shower. i.e not a wall. The attaching screws have snapped. I could get two new brackets, dismantle that existing one and start again or I could try and re attach via those screws, removing the broken ones from the plate and wall...
