Glow-worm 0020014168 Diverter Valve Kit -3-Way Boiler Valve

The Glow-worm 0020014168 Diverter Valve Kit is a genuine replacement hydraulic valve assembly designed for selected Glow-worm Flexicom, Ultracom and Ultrapower boilers.

Also described as a 3-way valve assembly, the diverter valve forms an important part of the boiler's hydraulic circuit. In applicable combination boilers it controls the direction of primary heating water depending on whether the appliance is supplying central heating or domestic hot water.

A worn, sticking or leaking diverter valve can contribute to symptoms such as poor hot water performance, radiators becoming warm during hot water demand, reduced heating performance or internal leakage. Correct diagnosis should always be carried out before replacing the component.

What Does a Diverter Valve Do?

The diverter valve controls the route taken by primary heating water inside the boiler.

In a compatible combination boiler, the valve changes position depending on whether there is a demand for central heating or domestic hot water. During a hot water demand, the boiler redirects heated primary water towards the domestic hot water heat exchanger. When central heating is required, flow is directed through the heating circuit.

Correct operation of the diverter valve is therefore essential for reliable heating and hot water performance.

Common Diverter Valve Fault Symptoms

A faulty diverter valve can potentially cause a range of heating or hot water symptoms. Depending on the boiler and the exact fault, these can include:

  • Hot water not reaching the expected temperature
  • Central heating not operating correctly
  • Radiators warming when only hot water has been requested
  • Intermittent heating or hot water performance
  • Valve failing to change between heating and hot water demand
  • Internal leakage around the valve assembly

These symptoms can also be caused by other boiler components, so the appliance should always be professionally diagnosed before replacement parts are ordered.

Important Compatibility Information

Always confirm compatibility before ordering. Boiler manufacturers can use different components across different production dates, serial numbers and revisions of apparently similar boiler models.

The safest method is to check the existing component for part number 0020014168 and compare the boiler model, serial number and Gas Council number against the applicable manufacturer parts information.

If you are unsure whether this part fits your boiler, provide the full appliance details before ordering.

Genuine Glow-worm Replacement Part

This product is the genuine Glow-worm 0020014168 Diverter Valve, manufactured as a replacement component for compatible Glow-worm heating appliances.

Using the correct manufacturer part number helps ensure the replacement component is designed for the required hydraulic arrangement and appliance application.

Professional Installation Required

Replacement of an internal boiler diverter valve involves draining or isolating part of the appliance's hydraulic circuit and removing boiler components or casing.

Installation should therefore be undertaken by a suitably qualified heating professional. Where work is being undertaken on a gas boiler, a Gas Safe registered engineer should carry out any work covered by current gas safety regulations.

Always follow Glow-worm's appliance-specific installation and servicing instructions.
