What it is

The Glow-worm expansion vessel (part 0020048250) is a sealed diaphragm vessel used on the Energy 35 Store boiler. It absorbs the volume increase of heating water as it heats, keeping system pressure within the operating range.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • System pressure drops repeatedly and needs frequent topping up
  • Boiler locks out or displays a low-pressure fault
  • Water appears at the vessel valve when the charge is checked
  • Pressure rises sharply once the boiler heats up
  • Vessel feels heavy or sounds full of water when tapped

Before you order

  • Confirm the boiler model and GC number from the appliance data badge
  • Check the part number against the manufacturer's parts list for the Energy 35 Store
  • Confirm the pressure loss is not caused by a leak elsewhere in the heating circuit
  • Check the vessel charge pressure before fitting
