Dripping Celsia 24L boiler

[JBarker]

Hello,

Please can anyone help us with our combi boiler. It was installed in 1999, we moved in a year ago, to no instruction manual.

It has been dripping for around a week, not too much but enough to make a little puddle in the bowl we have put under it. Its quite slow so I don't catch where it is coming from but it seems to be the bottom left hand corner. Our pressure is varying from 0.7 cold to 1.5 hot.

If anyone could offer any advice that would be great.
Thank you
Joy

Poossibly either the filling loop or hw side of the plate heat exchanger.

Do you have to top the pressure up?
Can you get under the boiler and see, something should be damp?

If you drop the front panel down, there is a silver plate heat exchanger right at the front, the top left connection on the back of this often leaks. Check around here and see if its damp

Oh btw, the celsia is a worcester rebadged for british gas.

Hello, thank you so much for replying yes it has evidence of water coming down the silver heating panel from the top left hand corner.....

We don't top the pressure up but maybe we should? Its quite low. We also have one radiator that doesn't get as hot as the others.

Kind Regards

if its leaking from the top left connection on the plate h/e then its the mains side thats leaking.
