What it is

The by-pass is a Glow-worm boiler component that sits in the appliance's primary water circuit and maintains a minimum flow through the heat exchanger as system demand changes. It is supplied under Glow-worm part number 0020014169. It is used across a wide range of Glow-worm combi, system and regular boiler models.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Boiler short-cycling or repeatedly firing and shutting down on low system demand
  • Kettling, banging or rushing water noise from the heat exchanger
  • Overheat or flow-related lockouts that clear on reset
  • Poor temperature control at the taps or radiators
  • Visible scale, debris or damage at the by-pass when the appliance is opened up

Before you order

  • Confirm your appliance model against the Fits list above, as the same range can use different by-pass arrangements across variants
  • Check the GC number on your appliance data badge against the model you are ordering for
  • Compare the part number on the component being removed with 0020014169
  • Check whether your appliance is a combi, system or regular model, as the fit list covers all three types
