Hi, im trying to find a replacement pump for my boiler, i can only find one on ebay with some similar numbers: PN6 and IP44, can anyone tell me if these are what are used to match up ? if not what do i need to look for ?
theres a type, a no. a ref ! and i dont know which is the critical identification for it.
Thanks in adavance for any pointers !

Ninj ........... can't you just Google the manufacturer's site for (hopefully) a manual or a parts diagram?

IP44 is just a standard of protection for electrical fittings/allpiances (Ingress Protection)
I think PN6 is just something similar for mechanical pumps.

Cheers builder, i have done a fair bit of searching and found the manuals / diagrams, this isnt usually my type of work so ive gone into it partially blind ! Ive found that the PN6 is the flange stud pattern so ive just got to see if i can cross reference with the one ive found for sale now, was just a shot really to see, you never know you could research for hours something that another ABer has the answer at the top of his head !

the supplier would need the make of the pump and the type number.. I would buy from a local supplier rather than e bay if it was faulty you can take it back also they would be able to help you get the correct pump..

i take it you dont have any manufacturers instruction? this contains a list of classifications inc. the most important one, your GC number ( 7 Figures/digits) which you can walk into any suppliers with and get parts. the number is more important than the name.
what is the name of your boiler and model number? this GC number is on a data badge inside one of the panels usually, and we can take it from there

Thank you terence, we do have all the paperwork for it but didnt know anything about GC number and its significance. I will find out tomorrow and post it up here if we havent sorted it by then !

I assume you are referring to the water circulating pump .. NOT an oil pump that would be installed in an oil fired boiler.

All you need is a Boiler Gas Council number (as asked already) or the exact boiler model. Then you WILL get a pump. Many use a very standard pump. If you want, you can change it yourself too.
