Hi all
Hoping someone can give some onsite advice before we get a plumber in. We have an ideal logic plus, less than two years old and only regularly used in the last two months since we moved in. This morning I enter the room and find the work top covered in water that appears to have come from the pipe coupler on which the pressure gauge is. It wasn't a huge amount of water, much less that a cup full. I tidied it all up, checked boiler pressure and have had heating on now for three hours tonight with no sign of further leak. What could have caused this sudden discharge? I presume it must have been due to excessive pressure but must have happened when the system had cooled in the early hours when I would suspect pressure is lowest. Would this also discharge elsewhere and not the pipe fixing on the boiler.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
