Me Mams boiler is malfunctioning. Problem is, shes in Lancashire and I'm in Sheffield, and I'd like to be able to pick up any parts and drop em off over the weekend so that she can get some1 in to sort it out.
Combi had to be topped up via filling loop regularly; now daily!! Pressure drops overnight and boiler obviously wont fire till the system is filled back up to pressure. She seems sure that pressure loss is via the safety discharge overflow pipe. There are drips off the end of the discharge pipe and a pool of water on the flagstones underneath. I asked if she has ever overfilled it and she said a resounding "no!"
There are no leaks on any part of the pipework and all of the blank/vent screws on the rads and valves are in good order. She takes the filling loop off so cant be faulty double check valve.
Any suggestions appreciated!!??
Cheers
