Got it replaced for £168 supply and fit, 1600x600 chrome.

I have no idea if it's even still wired up to anything. Won't be doing anything myself, and won't be getting anything done unless someone qualified gives it the nod and it doesn't involved too much work.

Yeah, I understand the concerns, and as I say, if I can't get it done, so be it. Not the end of the world.

My understanding is that as it's a cupboard, with door, it'd be permitted under regs, but that sparkies may well not be willing. For reference https://electrical.theiet.org/media/1450/section-701.pdf . If I can't find a willing sparky, I'll drop the idea. But it's two adults, no kids, no chance...

All circuit breakers - two boxes, one of which is labelled with stuff like 'storage heaters'. There aren't any in the house. There's one labelled 'downflow' which I've figured out powers the boiler. I'll wager this is wired up to one of those, if it's wired to anything, but there's nothing to...

Most definitely not new. As I say, I'd assume this was for heating / hot water before the gas went in, given the location in a bathroom cupboard full of pipes. I'll be getting a sparky to take a look at putting a double socket in here one way or another, assuming they're ok with doing that in a...

There you go!

It said it was uploaded! Hang on. I knew that was too fast for a useful answer :D

Slowly figuring out what's what in a new house. This is in a bathroom cupboard, I assume for a water heater or similar, any ideas if I'm right. Would like to get power into the cupboard (regs allowing), not sure yet if there's power to this though.

More comfortable with a drill and hammer than a pipe wrench and PTFE tape though. Or I'd not be hesitating before draining the thing.

Yeah, was getting nervous as it seemed to be speeding up slightly. Still drips per hour, but didn't like it. Have isolated and opened bleed valve to depressurise, so at least it doesn't have hot 2 bar water running through it. Not sure I'm up to draining it, will keep a weather eye on it and see...

Thanks, that's what I suspected.

Will be getting a professional opinion on this, but would be good to know what questions to ask and the possible outcomes... This is a slow drip - not figured out how slow, but something like a drip an hour. I don't *think* it's been happening very long, and suspect it may have been triggered...
