I think the asbestos is in the combustion seals for the space saver, as long as those aren't disturbed you should be ok.
I have an old central heating boiler that needs changing , and it is on the list as having asbestos in it. (gloworm space saver mk1),how do you approach these jobs does a specialist firm have to remove it
thanks

My parents just had one of these replaced and didn't mention it needed specialist handling. It lasted 25 years without a single issue until it went pop a few weeks ago. Quite incredible
Probably best to contact British Gas as they will know for sure.
I had one replaced a few months ago and the installer didn't mention anything.
Had lasted the best part of 30 years without issue but eventually the heat exchanger got clogged and it got noisy.
