What it is

The Baxi 720870101 is a blanking grommet with a 38mm diameter, supplied as a spare part for Baxi and Potterton heating appliances. It sits in an unused aperture in the casing or hydraulic assembly and closes that opening, keeping water contained and preventing air from being drawn into the appliance. Rubber grommets harden, shrink and split with heat cycling, so this is a service item that is replaced when the original no longer seals or grips.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Visible splits, cracks or hardening in the rubber body
  • Water weeping or staining around the blanking point
  • Air being drawn in through a perished grommet, giving poor combustion readings or repeated lockouts
  • Grommet sitting loose in its aperture or pushed out of position
  • Rattling or vibration from a grommet that no longer grips the casing

Before you order

  • Check the GC number and, where applicable, the appliance serial number against the compatibility list before ordering.
  • Confirm the model and serial range: Heatmax Combi 33 HE units are listed separately for before and after serial No. FMN 1112.
  • This part is fitted to a gas appliance; installation must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
