  • how did the water leak show CO leaking?

    After the repair he did a CO test and it showed a leak.

    pressure... a flush will do fuck all

    Thanks. I think I might have miss remembered and the flush was due to the shower getting cold. Logic being scale reducing flow and then making the boiler think the water is hotter than it is.

    leak advice

    Cheers. That's appricated

    leak in the Heat exchanger and its leaking into the condensate

    This sounds quite likely give how much is then flowing out of the pipe into our garden.

    It's a Worcester (not bosch) boiler fwiw.

    We dont just go out and suggest new boilers willy nilly

    Sorry if I was unduly negative.

  • Loads of folk shout about worcester, not a fan personally. Far better boilers on the market.

    Depending on the age it could worth getthing the manufacturer out on a fixed price repair to sort it.

  • Well in ours there is a special piece of moulded polystyrene upgrade to make leaking water run over one of the more expensive electrical components, to reduce the cost of repair.

    There is something both beautiful and hideous about a manufacturer pricing up fixing a fundamental design flaw, and then realising its better VFM to design a little cover instead.

    On balance I've not been very impressed and would probably look elsewhere.
