Important safety notice – potential issue affecting your boiler
The manufacturer Ideal Heating, has identified a potential issue affecting a small proportion of their range of boilers. If an excessive volume of air becomes trapped inside the boiler in a fault condition, it could cause the boiler to overheat and fail. To fix this issue a heating engineer will need to visit your home to make a small modification to your boiler. The visit will be free of charge and take 30 to 60 minutes. To register for the upgrade, we need you to confirm your contact details at www.idealsupport.co.uk.
You can continue to use your boiler. However, we advise you check that its pressure gauge is as close to 1.5bar as possible.
If your boiler is at less than one bar and you are unable to repressurise it, please do one of the following:
Call our call centre on 0800 952 4444
