It allows for the controlled passage of water or gas within the boiler, connecting essential components like the diverter valve and heat exchanger, and enabling the flow of mains water into the heating unit.
This component should be inspected annually as part of your boiler's routine service by a qualified engineer. They will check for wear, corrosion, and leaks.
Common signs include water leaks around the boiler, a noticeable drop in heating performance, or issues with hot water supply.
The Manufacturer Part Number (MPN) is typically found on the product packaging, the part itself, or in your boiler's manual. For this item, it is 87161064280.
This indicates a potential failure of the pipe assembly. Turn off the boiler and isolate the water supply. Contact a qualified Gas Safe engineer immediately for inspection and replacement.
A blockage or partial failure within the pipe assembly could restrict water flow. Schedule a service with a qualified engineer to inspect and clean or replace the part if necessary.
Ensure all connections on the new pipe assembly are fully tightened and sealed. If the issue persists, the engineer should check for other potential leaks in the system.
Compatibility: This pipe flow assembly is specifically designed for the Worcester Bosch Greenstar, Greenstar 8000 Life, and Greenstar Er P boiler models. Always verify your boiler's model number to ensure compatibility before purchasing.
Setup: Installation of this component should only be performed by a qualified Gas Safe registered engineer. Incorrect installation can lead to serious safety risks, including gas leaks or water damage. The engineer will disconnect the boiler from the power and gas supply, drain the relevant system parts, remove the old assembly, install the new one securely, and then reconnect and test the system.
Care: As a non-user-serviceable internal component, direct care is minimal. However, regular annual servicing of your boiler by a qualified engineer is crucial. During servicing, the engineer will inspect all pipework, including this assembly, for signs of wear, corrosion, or leaks, ensuring continued safe and efficient operation. Avoid making any modifications to the pipework yourself.
