Hi All.
Need your help and advice. Over the past couple of days noticed a few drips from the bottom right of our combi boiler.
I've taken the cover off and had a look and think i've found where its leaking from. Its leaking just in the middle of the diverter valve, where the valve seems to join in two pieces. There is the main circular body at the top with the microswitch on it. Below there appears to be a threaded part with what looks like a couple of grub screws fastening the top to the bottom cylindrical unit. Its from this mid part that it is leaking.
My question is do i need to buy a complete diverter valve or is it something (like a perished o ring) that can be changed where its leaking.
Finally, am i right in assuming that i need to drain down. Looking at the isolation valves i dont want to touch them in case they start leaking as well
Manny thanks
