I am making advance preparations to replace the expansion vessel on my Vaillant combi, and wondered if some kind pundit would kindly advise on what to expect. :-)
Obviously I will need to remove the combi from the wall first to get at it, but my question relates to the actual method of connection to the water union. Looking at the new part, I cannot see any form of threading, either internal or external. Instead, it is quite smooth inside the connection orifice with only a circular rubber 'o'-ring visible about a centimeter or so inside set into a groove. (See pic here)
Any other helpful hints gladly accepted.
Kind regards
Nigel
