Nature of the Hazard:
The identified risk stems from the boiler's ability to operate under conditions where the heat exchanger is not properly cooled, leading to overheating and potential ignition of surrounding plastic components. This flaw has already resulted in several incidents where emergency measures were necessary to prevent fires.
Recommended Corrective Action:
To mitigate this risk, Ideal Heating has initiated a comprehensive modification programme. Importantly, while awaiting modification, the company advises that boilers can remain in use if repressurised to 1.5 bar, with detailed instructions available on Ideal's official safety notice page.
What Should You Do?
- 1. Check Your Boiler: Identify if your boiler is one of the affected models by referring to the detailed list provided in the recall notice.
- 2. Follow Guidance: If your boiler is impacted, follow the repressurisation instructions and contact Ideal Heating or an authorised service provider for the necessary modifications.
- 3. Stay Informed: Regularly check updates and maintain your boiler as recommended to ensure ongoing safety.
