What it is

The Baxi 720538401 is a coverplate gasket for the heat exchanger assembly on Baxi heating appliances. It sits between the heat exchanger body and its coverplate, sealing the joint so that water stays inside the waterways under normal operating pressure and temperature. The gasket is supplied as a pack of 10, which covers multiple joints or allows stock to be held for repeat work.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Water weeping or dripping from the heat exchanger coverplate joint
  • Staining, crusting or limescale trails around the coverplate edge
  • A gasket that has hardened, flattened, cracked or become brittle with age
  • System pressure dropping with no other obvious cause
  • Black or rusty residue at the joint when the coverplate is lifted

Before you order

  • Match the number 720538401 against the marking on the old gasket or the appliance parts list.
  • Note the boiler's GC number and serial number to confirm the correct variant.
  • The gasket is supplied in a pack of 10, so check how many joints are being resealed.
  • Isolate the appliance, drain the relevant section and let it cool before any work begins.
  • This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
