Slow leak from Combi Boiler

Posted by Jon Brown, on
What are the possible causes of a slow leak (less than 1 litre per week) - is there anything I can check easily?

Hi Jon, You can have a look at the PRV pipe outside, it goes from the boiler to outside most times a 15mm pipe under the flue, see if it's dripping if not check all the rads and see if there's any weeps. If no signs of water then you will need an engineer's visit trace and repair.

Dear Jon There can be a lot of issues which are causing a leak. Untight nuts, heat exchanger ., pump connectors etc etc. I would suggest to post a job on main website then someone will contact you to discuss details of the job. Best regards Rafal
