Hi all, I'm not very clued up on boilers and would really appreciate some help with this before I call someone in.
My boiler was dripping a small amount of water out the plastic cover on the bottom everytime the HW was switched on.
Two days later and the pressure dropped from 0.8 to 0.4 and stopped operating. When reset it would increase to 0.5 and I and when trying to heat water it got to 30degrees then showed Fault 22. I looked this up and it mentioned system pressure so I repressurised it using the flexible hose.
This seemed to work as water would now heat. Problem is that there is now even more water dripping. I took the cover off to see whats what and there is water all over the 'floor' of the casing, around electric wires etc. and I am worried!
I can't identify exactly where the water is coming from but please see pictures below.
Many thanks.
It looks like it is coming from that part with the 5 spokes on it.
