Thanks Ill give it ago tonight mate. thanks. Im now pretty sure that it could be the PRV. the leak under my boiler is on the left hand side when facing it, i.e. the side the PRV is on. If so are these easy to change yourself. Where can you get them from

Hi thanks for your reply, when i ment plumber the actual company was called combifix. so i geuss there engineers. The pressure doesnt increase when the heat is on. Will loosing pressure have an effect on the temp of water. Thanks

Happy New Year guys. I have a Baxi combi boiler and it has been loosing pressure quite frequently. i.e. i topped it up to 2 bar 3 days ago and now its at just above 1. I left a kitchen towel under the boiler overnight and it is wet in the morning, cant visually see any leaks under it...

Thanks mate. So basically its probably not programmed to use the thermostat, so no point in changing it. On the actual boiler, theres a setting for the heating, thats just set to max. i tried changing the setting on there untill the heating switched of to see if the Red would become live...
