What it is

The Alpha 1.016870 is an overheat thermostat rated at 105°C, used across Alpha C Range, CD Range and Protec gas boilers. It works as a safety cut-out, interrupting the burner when the boiler temperature rises above its safe operating limit. The part is manufactured by Alpha for these appliance families.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Boiler locks out or shuts down repeatedly, particularly once it has reached temperature
  • Overheat trip operates and requires a manual reset before the boiler will fire
  • Boiler fails to fire, or runs only briefly before cutting out
  • Fault code or lockout indicating an overheat condition
  • Boiler cuts out during hot water or heating demand without an obvious external cause

Before you order

  • Confirm your boiler model and GC number against the fitment list above
  • Check the temperature rating and part number on the existing thermostat
  • Isolate the electrical supply and follow the manufacturer's instructions before fitting
  • Rule out underlying causes of overheating, such as poor circulation or a faulty pump, before replacing the thermostat
