I've spent the last two days fitting a Danesmoor System Kitchen 25/32 in place of a leaking 30 year old Worcester boiler and this afternoon I attempted to fit the flue - big mistake 🙁
My customer ordered all the stuff for the install and as he'd got it from PTS I, wrongly it appears, assumed that the parts would be the correct ones for the boiler, however What I cannot do is to get the oil fit flue elbow to go into the joint on the top of the boiler. The inner spigot will match up to the boiler but the white outer part only butts up against the boiler socket. Is this right? Doesn't seem safe to me.
There appears to be what I can only describe as 'Locking Dogs' on the socket end of the flue on top of the boiler and the elbow will not fit into it properly.
Worcester tech support have just told me that there's no special elbow adapter for this and that it uses a standard flue elbow so if any of you what people know what I'm doing wrong I'd very much like to know as I usually only service the things, this is my first install though and Id like to get it right if I can. Although I do lots of gas installs these day, when it comes to oil They seem to last to long 🙂
The boiler is a Danesmoor System Kitchen 25/32 with a 3mtr vertical flue.
