How to Replace the Gas Valve on a ATAG i36 Combi (UK)

Step-by-step UK guide to replacing the modulating gas valve on a ATAG i36 Combi. Part numbers, torques, commissioning.

ATAG

The part

Change the modulating gas valve on ATAG i36 Combi for hard ignition, F27 flame-lift or repeated flame loss faults.

Isolate safely

Cap the gas at the isolator, disconnect the multi-pin harness and undo the gas valve union. Fit a new fibre washer.

Fit and commission

Perform a full gas rate and combustion analysis after fitting the ATAG i36 Combi valve — CO/CO2 ratio must fall inside the OEM window.

Recommission checklist

Refill the ATAG i36 Combi to 1.2 bar cold. Bleed high-point radiators and the internal AAV.

Run a full flue-gas analysis after 15 minutes. Log the reading against the OEM commissioning envelope in the Benchmark book.
