Here you go...can you post a pic of your filling loop assembly both ends
Oops, my mistake I didn’t see the pipe next to the condensate pipeIs it ?? Looks like the copper pipe to the left is indicated with a red line ?
I've not had to top up the pressure since I've moved here a few months ago although I did have a look when I moved in and the pressure was between 1 and 2. Annoyingly I didn't get a chance to see what the pressure was before the boiler service recently so didn't see whether it had dropped and/or if the engineer had topped it up.Get a feeling there is a red Herring in your post somewhere, that pipe only discharges water in the case of the pressure getting too high, either through an expansion problem or the filling loop passing, or a plate heat exchanger problem,or the boiler PRV passing, but in all cases the pressure guage would be higher than that pic you posted,or you would have to constantly be adding pressure, how often do you add pressure to the system ?
I'm still interested in where the pipe actually goes - normally, there would be an outlet, something like:

Do you have a visible outlet like this? Is it dripping water?
Sorry, I thought the pipe turned, or went straight into the floor - I thought the leak was from a bad joint/corrosion, I didn't see that the pipe stopped above the floor.The pipe that leaks goes to just above the floor and stops, hence the leak on the floor.
Can you put some tissue paper around the bottom of the pipe but not at the end of the pipe? Perhaps water is dripping down the external of the pipe?
Nope, if it was leaking via the heat exchanger it would be running down the condensate pipe, not the safety discharge pipe.He has said that the leak is coming from the heat exchanger and it's not something he would repair as he is not familiar with Ariston boilers. Does that make any sense to any of you?
