British Gas Homecare?????

[jdfarman]

I have a Baxi Bermuda 45/4 back boiler. When I bought the house there was a Focalpoint Plasma fire attached. I have just had British Gas out to service the boiler and he told me it was illegal, turned off the gas supply and told me I need to get a baxi fire or a new boiler! Is this correct?

Yes, you can't just mix and match a fire to your back boiler it has to be one approved to work with the back boiler.

Have you got any pictures? I could do with a laugh

Cheers,
Do you want photos of the fire or the boiler???? Is it possible to have the boiler without a fire at all? Or even get a minging baxi fire and just not use it??? Please excuse my ignorance but I'm a chef, not an engineer!!!!

Go on ebay & pick up a Baxi C3, 4 or 5, all of these will go with your boiler.
And no you can't use the boiler without the fire.
