Hi Guys, wonder if anyone can help.
I have managed to get my hands on a 504 boiler in decent condition. Two questions.
The boiler arrived with the original white asbestos insulation panels - anyone know the name of a UK replacement material that meets current safety requirements? Needs to be 3/16 - 1/4 inch thick. Suppliers would be good too.
The other question is that there seems to be two variants of the 504. One variant has wooden lagging fixed with three brass bands (the one I have). The other is identical but lacks the lagging. Any one know why there are two versions? I can only find one in the old (1980's) catalogues.
Regards
Steve
