Hi All,
I had a new sealed system fitted a couple of years ago and need to top up the cold water to the tank every couple of months and when i went to do it today i opened the levers on both on/off taps on the filling loop and found that the second on/off lever started leaking water quite badly so i need to replace the joint, it has a lever to turn it on/off and a screw to turn off the water completely, i can do the job by turning the earlier one to off but the question is do i have to drain the tank whats to stop the water in the tank running back out, advice will be appreciated

Thanks

Tally
