Hi,
Just a quick question. Does anyone know if the expansion vessel Schrader valve is accessible on an Ideal Isar HE30 combi boiler? I couldn't see the valve on one today to check it, and if the valve is accessible can you get to the valve enough to replace the Schrader valve if it starts to leak?

I know you have to take the boiler off the wall to replace the vessel, or fit one somewhere else in the system.
