Keston boilers

[Millsy 82]

The company I work for have just got a new contract and the few I have been out to over the past week or so have Kestons fitted is there any common problems with them that I should be aware of apart from being a pile of poo and needs ripping off the wall.

You already know the answer 😉

Burner gaskets blow, causing fusible link to fail, if you're luck or distorts hes if not, always replace if servicing, and worth keeping a couple to hand if you're going to be seing a few of them.

Stupid black flue duct cracking

Dropping allen screws from casing!

etc.....

Are the gaskets the same on all the models like vaillant or do I have to order in different ones for different models.

I think the larger models have different (bigger) joints, though some of the models share parts.
