How do I locate a leak in the central heating system if the pipes are under concrete?

Hi mr Griffiths , it's literally a matter of looking for a damp patch unfortunately , try getting a plumber to add a leak sealer to your heating system , this can be added through a radiator or filling loop , I've used it a few times when no other alternative and it's worked every time / if it's pressure drops your experiencing it could also be the pressure vessel in the boiler ( assuming you have a combi boiler )

What would you like to do now?
