Sight Glass for Gas Wall Heater

[davewr]

Any idea where I might get a sight glass for viewing the pilot light on a Maxol Mayfair gas wall heater? The existing one has cracked. It's 1.25 inches diameter and 0.125 inches thick and any make would do if it is the same size. I haven't had any luck finding Maxol spares.
Thanks.

Shouldn't really matter that it's cracked, apart from appearance. But any decent glazier's should be able to provide a replacement glass.

You could ask what size this is?

give gas-on-spares of halesowen a ring (0121 585 7799), Maxol no longer exist so it's a long shot but if gas-on can't help you no-one can.

if they cant get the part ask if there's an alternative.

off the top of my head i can't picture a Maxol Mayfair but if its a balanced flue model then it should not be used with a cracked sight glass in case fumes enter the living space.

Thanks for all your help, I'll keep trying as I do want to sort it. As a last resort I'll replace the heater as it is about 25 years old, although it's ok apart from the glass.
