Stockton 5 - Rear Airwash Chamber

Chris Fosbrook 9 years ago

We have always had a problem with the rear Airwash chamber plate. The first was replaced free of charge by Stovax after just 2 years. Our fitter said this part was a problem with this particular model. This second one has now gone the same way and is starting to disintegrate. It is an expensive job to get it replaced due to accessibility, would it cause any problems apart from no airwash if I removed it altogether and replaced it with firebricks?
