Vaillant Gas Section VAILLANT053469

The Vaillant 053469 gas section is a gas-carrying component used within Vaillant water heaters and boiler assemblies. It forms part of the gas train, sitting between the gas inlet and the burner so that gas is delivered to the combustion area in a controlled way. As a gas-side part, it is subject to the heat, condensate and general wear that comes with daily operation, and it is replaced when the gas path can no longer be relied on.

• The appliance fails to light, or lights and then drops out shortly afterwards
• An unstable, weak or uneven flame at the burner
• Sooting, blackening or discolouration around the burner and gas section
• Visible corrosion, cracking or distortion on the gas section body
• A smell of gas around the appliance, which requires the gas supply to be isolated immediately

• Check the model and serial number on the appliance data badge against the compatibility information for this part

• Inspect the existing gasket or seal before fitting, as it may need to be renewed at the same time
• This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
