Leaking snapfit to radiator

Jayce76 · 14 Jul 2012

Hi,

Im in a new property (3 years)

One of the rads has started to leak. Its leaking at the pvc snap fit to metal elbow. The push fit simply wont push back in. There is nothing obstructing it both are clean and no corrosions. On all others its flush and fine

Is that silicone on the rad tail?
Have you checked that there is an insert in the end of the pipe?

I wouldn't even bother myself thinking about it.

Building is 3 years old... call the installers. If they give you the run around, call the NHBC.
