Gloworm Boiler id help needed

[mpage]

Hi! i'm new to the forum, i've got what i think is a gloworm boiler that is working fine apart from the electronic starter is broken but that is not the problem!

I cleaned the burner and the heating element the other day but noticed white tiles within the boiler walls(heat shields i think) but was wondering if they are asbestos and if i should be worried... i wore a dust mask when i cleaned the unit.

can anybody shed any light onto the make and model and anything i shoud be aware of!

Many thanks - matthew

It is an old Glow-worm Spacesaver.and the insulation panels are probably asbestos based boards fitted in front and behind the heat exchanger.
