If you own or maintain a Gledhill heating system, you'll know how important it is to use the correct replacement parts. This week, we're highlighting one of the most commonly requested components in our range—the Gledhill GT017 Plate Heat Exchanger.
Whether you're a homeowner, landlord or heating engineer, replacing a faulty heat exchanger can often restore your heating and hot water system without the expense of replacing the entire unit.
What Does the GT017 Plate Heat Exchanger Do?
The plate heat exchanger is a vital component within many Gledhill heating systems. Its job is to transfer heat efficiently between two separate water circuits, allowing your system to provide reliable hot water while maintaining heating performance.
Over time, heat exchangers can become blocked with limescale, corrosion or general wear, reducing efficiency and affecting the overall performance of your heating system.
Signs Your Plate Heat Exchanger May Need Replacing
If you're experiencing any of the following problems, your plate heat exchanger could be the cause:
-
Poor hot water performance
-
Inconsistent water temperatures
-
Reduced heating efficiency
-
Slow hot water recovery
-
Leaks or visible corrosion around the component
-
Unusual noises from the heating system
If you're unsure which part you need, our knowledgeable team can help identify the correct replacement.
Why Replace the Part Instead of the Entire Heating System?
Many homeowners assume that an ageing heating system needs replacing when a fault occurs. In reality, replacing a single component is often a much more cost-effective solution.
Benefits include:
-
Lower repair costs
-
Faster installation
-
Less disruption to your property
-
Extended lifespan of your existing heating system
-
Reduced waste compared to replacing the complete unit
Replacing the correct spare part can often save hundreds—or even thousands—of pounds.
