Glo-worm 45 gas fire for back boiler

[rubyxdarla]

I am looking for a Glow-worm 45 gas fire to work with the back boiler unit we currently have. The front fire was broken and had to be removed and now cannot find a replacement. Does anyone know where I can get one from?

Just checking.. did whoever removed the fire cap off the back boiler?

No it wasn't.

No it wasn't.

STOP USING THE APPLIANCE IMMEDIATELY IT IS FAR FROM SAFE!!!!

It isn't being used

Good but the BBU should ideally be capped off from the gas supply until such time as you find a fire or decide to replace the boiler

You're unlikely to find one. It's an obsolete appliance. Sounds like it's new boiler time. Your only chance would be finding an undamaged second hand one and someone willing to install it.

I know it's extremely unlikely hence asking anyone I can at the moment, hoping for a second hand one somewhere.

What can go wrong with that fire that can't be repaired? Tell us more.

Apparently it fell off the wall, shattered and the gas pipe was completely broken. It's been thrown away. I'm posting on behalf of my Dad by the way so having to go by his description.
