Green goo

Damo1176 · 23 Oct 2005

Had a new radiator fitted a few months ago in our bathroom. the copper piping going into one end of the radiator keeps aving green goo build up on it after a few days, the other side is fine. It is simply a copper pipe going into I presume a steel fitting then attching to the rad.

Can anyone suggest what is causing this and is it worth getting the man who fitted it back in.

You have a slight leak and the green is caused by inhibitor or flux residue at the nut. Try nipping it up a little and clean off the green. It should be alright, if you have doubt's get back the engineer.
