Valve leaking slightly on Glowworm Betacom 4 24c boiler.

[barrysmith]

Hi,

First time posting here, this part has started leaking slightly on my Glowworm Betacom4 24c, it is on the heating return (obviously wouldn't go anywhere near it myself if it was a gas pipe).

Where do I find a replacement part? Or is there a fix without replacing it?

Any help here would be appreciated, thanks.

Is it coming from the nut above and maybe just wants tightening? It could be from inside the boiler. Or perhaps the filling loop part has failed it the return valve

Not coming from the nut unfortunately, it's coming from the join of the two parts in the yellow box.

Sorry, but I can’t seem to locate the part. When looking in the manual it states spares on page 23, yet they’re not there!

Yeah, this is very frustrating, it shows a completely different part in the manual.

Its seems the fitter might have used parts from a different but very similar (in looks at least) boiler as the vales are shown in these videos.

FFS, that looks like the one, it seems the original fitter might have used parts from the Betacom 3 or Betacom Energy 25c, the Energy 25c is the boiler shown in the videos above.

That is the correct part for the Glowworm Betacom4 24c, like yours, same part as the other boilers you listed above.

Shows a completely different part in the manual, I'll have to buy it regardless though. Cheers.
