It sounds like the early Profile design which was sold with the Netaheat name on it.

Its probably early 1990s so quite old.

Its a cast iron heat exchanger, very reliable but not very efficient.

Because they dont have a permanent pilot light they are not as expensive to run as many older boilers.

Yes a good boiler dont get talked into buying new its worth repairing unless and unlighty the heat exchanger is U S
