When the housing is installed, fit a piece of flexible flue from the boiler chimney right to the top of the housing. This reduces the chance of fumes being blown back down into the boiler and smothering the flame. You might also want to resite or remove any CO2 sensor on the boiler, obviously not if it's moved indoors.

I have the same problem and mine is in a housing! Even if I try to light it with a match, it still won’t go, yes, I have a full gas bottle!

Who services gas boilers?

Sounds like safety device tripped. Inside the boiler is a flue sensor with a push button reset. Maybe that. I've been to one today with the same fault. Sparks but no gas being released to ignite.

Don't understand the 'baffles' bit. Don't put anything inside the flue. It is designed to provide the correct amount of air to gas ratio. If you restrict it, it will have too much gas and not enough air. Multipoint will lock out due to incorrect mixture.
