as it says in the subject, the knob for turning the temp up and down
is broke. Do I need to contact Vaillant or will a decent plumbing shop
have these? Thanks.

There's about 15 different turbomax models, are there any numbers and/or
letters.
Some of the turbomax boilers have spares online

search for boiler spares and have a look around, some of them have quite a
few bits and pieces, other than that you'l probably have to contact
Valliant, unless you can use a knob off something else? - is it just a 'D'
shaped spindle at the back?

Nick one off the cooker, then post tommorow when the wife notices asking
where to buy a new knob for your cooker.

The old fire extinguisher instructions:

"Strike knob. Aim at base of fire."
