I have a combi boiler which has been losing pressure.
Pressure would drop drastically overnight and I was told that there must be a leak in pipes buried in the concrete floors.
Specialist contractors with thermal imaging were called and they used a specialist gas to highlight any leaks. They checked the whole house and only one area showed up.
This was then dug up but no leak was found. Further investigations followed but mysteriously the pressure stopped falling.
This was stable for several months but has now started falling again although more slowly.
Only two things have changed - I bled a radiator and also switched on a kick space heater that I have not used before.
Once I bled the radiator (when system was cold) I topped up the system but pressure falls. Could this be the problem and will it settle down?
