Good evening All,
I was wondering whether anyone can help with the following problem that I'm experiencing with my ideal boiler and heating system. It is as follows:
Every couple of days the pressure on the boiler drops from just over 1 bar to just under 1/2 bar and then I subsequently top it up and the process occurs again within around 3-4 days.
I have looked through the other forums for similar problems and have checked to make sure I am not loosing water through the safety valve or the drain cock. I have also checked the pressure of the vessel within the boiler and have measured 1.2 bar. I have bled the entire heating system and there was little air in the system so it doesn't appear as if I'm loosing it there.
The boiler is approximately 2 years old and the heating system/ pipe work was installed in 1997. If anyone has any ideas as to where the pressure may be being lost I would be very grateful.
All the best,
