Elektra Semiautomatica boiler repair - Page 2

Postby goodman on Fri Jul 02, 2010 6:40 pm

I was wondering if there has been any further action on the Semiautomatica (1995 model) boiler availability?
I'm told there are bubbles starting at the sight glass connection. Hate to throw out the machine when the boiler does go.

Thanks

The boilers are available from Elektra Italy. I recently bought an early model boiler for a 2003 model. This is the year they changed the boiler design not 2005 so I had to give them the serial number to order. If you have a 1995 then just give them the year. Retail price was around AUD650 - still a lot cheaper than a new machine.

Good luck.
