Pressure Switch leak on Combi Boiler

[jmillican]

Hi and thanks in advance for any help !

I have a Chaffoteaux ritony SE boiler and have just replaced my pressure switch which had cracked and badly leaked water when the pressure was raised.

I have turned my boiler back on and now I am having a small drip coming from the back of the preasure switch. Could it be that I havnt tightened it enough ( just bit nervouse tightening it too much with it being made of plastic).

Any ideas??

Thanks

that is your problem. My idea would be get another pressure switch! (and a decent boiler)

not exactly the reply I was looking for... the pressure switch was bought 5 minutes ago so there aint anything wrong with that.

In terms of buying a new boiler I have to make do with what I have as I dont have a spare few hundred quid.
