classic

A classic is an outstanding example of a particular style; something of lasting worth or with a timeless quality; of the first or highest quality, class, or rank – something that exemplifies its class. The word can be an adjective (a classic car) or a noun (a classic of English literature). It denotes a particular quality in art, architecture, literature, design, technology, or other cultural artifacts. In commerce, products are named 'classic' to denote a long-standing popular version or model, to distinguish it from a newer variety. Classic is used to describe many major, long-standing sporting events. Colloquially, an everyday occurrence (e.g. a joke or mishap) may be described in some dialects of English as 'an absolute classic'.
"Classic" should not be confused with classical, which refers specifically to certain cultural styles, especially in music and architecture: styles generally taking inspiration from the Classical tradition, hence classicism.

    Ideal Classic NF40

    Went to do a service on the above boiler today. I automatically assumed that it was on an open vent, so did the service, put it all back together but thought I'd check the airing cupboard anyway, and luckily I did. They had last year upgraded from vented to unvented and it's now a sealed system...

    Ideal classic 260. sparks, burner lights for split sec on and goes out. repeats.

    Anyone familiar with this boiler and come across something similar before? The tech guys said it must be an external control. I'm not so sure. New fan put in 3 weeks ago. Colleague thinks pcb or gas valve, leaning towards pcb. I have ordered a few different parts so hopefully its one of those.

    Install something without checking the door to the room can still open/close. Was a radiator with built in towel bar. Door couldn't be flipped either as would still have been in the way. And as I'd drilled holes in tiled wall to fit I had to spend rest of job cutting them off wall in place...
