Taking the old part to a plumbers merchant they tried to replicate the fittings in metal and whilst it did fit, neither they or I truly understood the significance of the thinner pipe that points up which I now know to be the breather tube. Shocked at the poor customer service offered by Truma UK I decided to email Truma Germany but their reply, whilst apologetic was equally unhelpful. I asked Truma what I was supposed to do as it seemed totally unfair to have to buy a new boiler costing hundreds of pounds just because a small piece of plastic had failed! The advice given was pathetic, apparently I should visit a plumbers merchants and get them to try and make something up. The newer part number for the newer boiler was 34150-01. Naturally, mine was the older boiler and the part number I needed was 34000-55600 which had been phased out. ![]() A call to Truma UK revealed that the part had changed in the late 90’s and I would need to give them the boiler serial number. The small plastic part is I believe referred to as a pressure relief value. On taking a closer look I noticed that water was dripping from the hot water outlet connection. I first noticed the problem when the carpet near the boiler door seemed to be wet. ![]() In August my Truma Water Heater developed a leak that is still causing me problems today. ![]() Motorhome life has been far from smooth recently for a number of reasons.
