Hi all, There is water continuously dripping through the tundish and now leaking out of the part below. Anyone had this before and know what the fix could be. cheers

I do have a lose tile which I’ll fix first , but I think the leak started before that became loose and the lose tile is from where I resealed the shower in the hope of fixing the leak. how do I check the waste on the tray?

Do you mean pull the vinyl up and check where it’s coming from? I can see through the living room it is definitely coming through to the ceiling by travelling down the toilet waste pipe.

It also explains why the plumber couldn’t find the leak when looking at the shower parts

Ahhh ok so maybe water is travelling from the shower to the toilet pipe under the vinyl. I have noticed damp coming through the vinyl since this leak started. The leak only happens when the shower is on.

Hi, Water is leaking through to my living room from the shower. I can see the water is coming from big pipe directly under the shower. How would you repair it, more sealant or replace what’s there? Also how would you access it, make another hole in the living room ceiling or lift the shower...

Would it be normal to now have a trickle of water coming through the tundish? Could this be just as the water heats up? I’ve just topped up the pressure.

Morning everyone, I took @Madrab advice and went to screwfix this morning and bought the part with the correct connection size. It has now been changed and so far no leak and no drop in pressure :) thank you so much for everyone’s advice, I’m sure i was frustrating calling the parts the wrong...

Do I need some white tape?

Thank you

Here you go

Oh no the connection isn’t identical.

It’s positioned upstairs and it is higher than at least the mid point of all the radiators, is that ok? By tomorrow morning it will be depressurised so if I switch it off then can I just replace it with the part I have bought do you think? What’s the worst that can happen?

The valve only leaks when I’ve repressurised it so what would happen if while the pressure had dropped and it wasn’t leaking I switched the air vent to a new one?

Maybe I’m using the wrong term. To get hot water everyday I need to connect the filling loop to the cold main and to the system until the dial on the boiler goes to green. After 24hours it will be back in the red.

It’s been tightened as much as possible. Even now I’ve just tightened it and water is puddling on the top 2 minutes later.

Invented cylinder is exactly what I mean. I’ve posted some pictures now

Hi all, I recently had a plumber out to fix my unvented indirect cylinder which keeps losing pressure. Unfortunately he didn’t fix the issue and caused a leak instead. I’ve noticed the issue seems to be the auto air vent which leaks when I re-pressurise it. I have bought the part can I just...
