would an 18 or 24 kw cope on the 15mm and be big enough?

Ye, Gledhill don't sell parts any more, have the same trouble. Rubbish boilers. Should be ok with an 18kw, especially as there is a 30 in atm. Best thing to do is turn it back on and just test the working pressure before ordering and replacing it.

 

[Killy Bing]

Haha 30kw?

and working pressure isss???

Wop in a logic heat only it's perfect and the inlet it 15mm. So just uplift the bit by the meter to 28mm.
