  • Our boiler keeps loosing pressure. I should track it better, but at a guess a couple of times every couple of weeks now.

    We previously had a leak and that engineer said we should have our system flushed. He didn't do it himself, didn't suggest anyone and generally seemed sound, so I'm inclined to think it was a genuine suggestion.
    I think there is some sort of overflow that drips out the roof via a pipe into the garden. That has been dripping a lot recently.

    I'm reticent to call someone out as I assume everyone's answer is going to be a new boiler regardless of whether that's true. Surely it's something they can knock out quickly, get good pay, low/no liability and probably commish on the boiler vs the opposite for a repair, right?

    Any thoughts, suggestions or experiences?

    Cheers.

  • Have you had it serviced recently?

    May be worth a service (don't tell them about the drippy condensate* or previous problems if you're worried it would influence them).
