Baxi Combi 105e Diverter Valve

Hi there,

my combi boiler is leaking and I've had a Corgi chap out to look at it and he quotes me £400 for replacing the Diverter Valve which is corroded. I'm trying to find the part number so I can work out if he's trying to rip me off or not. Maybe I've seen too many programmes about single women being ripped off by unscrupulous people. If I can find the part number I'm going to find out the cost price and see how much a Corgi chap will charge for fitting alone. Any help will be really appreciated!

Google suggests the whole boiler only costs around £500 (£590ish inc vat)...

http://www.heatandplumb.com/acatalog/Baxi_105e_Gas_Boiler.html

The diverter valve on it's own looks like around £50-£70 according to...

http://www.uk-plumbing.com/dept2.asp?dept%5Fname=Baxi+Diverter+Valves

but I don't know if you need the body as well (another £50). Might be cheaper elsewhere as this was just the first site I found.

I've no idea how hard it is to replace but the quote you had does sound expensive.
