Onoff Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 My capillary fire valve on the oil boiler keeps tripping. Teddington appears to be the make. No problems sourcing them but do I need a 65 or 90 degree one? It's mounted just above the burner on a bracket. No markings on the valve outside it's that old: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpmiller Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Either will work for you but the 90deg ones are needed for Agas AFAIK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liquid ones are better than the gas ones that are knocking about but cheaper usually. Teddington are still about too ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onoff Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 Cheers all. Noted I can get away with a 2 rather than 3m long one too. Present run is a bit round the houses! I'll lay the new one in a bit of trunking to protect from the witch and her broom! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
