Yeah, I took front off (going no further) there's rust inside consistent with previous wet. Front going back on now. Quick research suggests it is fucked and new boiler likely be needed.
Does the boiler have a cover on that, if not it should and if you’ve took it off put it back on or you’ll have POC coming into the house.
Boiler always been like it, what's POC in this context?
Thanks for advice, will call someone in on Monday.

They are junk they WB boilers, we’ve changed a bunch, if that’s rusty the sump at the bottom is leaking somewhere I’d say.
From that photo I’d go for it’s fucked and changed it, will be 10+ years old anyway

That plug you remove to do an emission test, all the fumes go out the middle of the flue which that is connected too, that should have plug to stop stuff coming into the room.
Weird that the rads are hot but sometimes weird things happen

You’ll get water in that anyway, as the condensate runs back through the boiler into the condensate pipe! Does the boiler have a cover on that, if not it should and if you’ve took it off put it back on or you’ll have POC coming into the house.
Looking at the rust that’s been leaking for a while, get some out to look at it as it doesn’t look right from the images, also just because something blows on the boiler doesn’t always trip the main breaker.
