Is this cartridge compatible with all Hanicks boilers?
No, this diverter cartridge (3.025230) is specifically compatible with Alpha Eco 2, Intec 2, E-Tec, and Evoke boiler models 25, 26, 28, 30, 33, and 35 only. Always check your boiler's manual or existing part number.
What is the main function of a diverter cartridge?
The diverter cartridge controls the flow of hot water within the boiler, directing it either to the domestic hot water system (taps, shower) or to the central heating system (radiators), depending on demand.
Can I install the diverter cartridge myself?
Installation is complex and requires specific tools and knowledge of boiler systems. It is strongly recommended to have a qualified heating engineer or plumber perform the installation to ensure safety and correct operation.
How do I know if my diverter cartridge needs replacing?
Symptoms include inconsistent hot water temperature, delayed hot water supply, or the boiler failing to switch between heating and hot water modes correctly. A professional service can diagnose this.
What is the weight of this cartridge?
The approximate weight of the Hanicks Diverter Cartridge 3.025230 is 0.440924524 pounds.
Where can I find the part number on my current cartridge?
The part number is usually stamped or printed directly onto the plastic body of the cartridge itself. Consult your boiler's manual for a diagram if needed.
Troubleshooting
Boiler is not providing hot water.
Ensure the diverter cartridge is correctly installed and that there are no blockages in the system. Check for error codes on the boiler display.
Hot water is intermittent or lukewarm.
This could indicate a faulty diverter cartridge not fully switching or sealing. Verify compatibility and consider professional replacement.
Water is leaking from the boiler casing.
Check all seals and connections around the diverter cartridge during installation. If leaking persists, the cartridge may be faulty or improperly fitted.
Heating system is not working, but hot water is available.
The diverter cartridge might be stuck in the 'hot water' position. A professional diagnosis is recommended to confirm if the cartridge needs replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Compatibility Verification: Before installation, carefully verify that your boiler model is listed among the compatible series: Alpha Eco 2, Intec 2, E-Tec, and Evoke (models 25, 26, 28, 30, 33, 35). Confirm that the part number on your existing cartridge matches 3.025230.
Installation:
Installation of the diverter cartridge should be performed by a qualified heating engineer or plumber. This typically involves:
- Isolating Power and Water: Ensure the boiler is switched off and the water supply is turned off.
- Accessing the Cartridge: The boiler casing will need to be removed to access the internal components.
- Removing the Old Cartridge: Carefully disconnect the old diverter cartridge, noting the orientation of any seals or connections.
- Installing the New Cartridge: Fit the genuine Hanicks 3.025230 cartridge into place, ensuring all seals are correctly seated.
- Reassembly and Testing: Reassemble the boiler, restore power and water, and test the system for leaks and proper operation.
Care:
As an internal boiler component, the diverter cartridge does not require direct user care. Its longevity depends on the overall maintenance of the boiler system, including regular servicing by a professional to check water pressure, remove potential scale buildup, and ensure all components are functioning optimally. Avoid attempting to clean or service the cartridge yourself, as this can lead to damage or improper function.
