Hi. I have a pressure problem with my Ariston MicroGenus 24kW combi boiler. The pressure gauge reads 2.2 or 2.3 bar when the boiler is cold. It has also come to my attention that there is a constant dripping coming out of the overflow pipe at the back of the boiler, which is dripping down the side of the building.
I think it has been like this for a while as I was aware there was some water dripping into the common area behind my flat but didn't realise it was anything to do with me . This is made even more annoying by the fact that my 2 year guarantee ended just a couple of weeks ago .
Therefore I am hoping that this will not be a big problem to fix. I left a message with the original installers of the boiler but haven't heard back yet. I know that pressure can be relieved by bleeding one of the radiators, but does the constant dripping (even when the boiler is switched off) suggest that there is a more serious problem that requires professional assistance?
Any help gratefully appreciated
Johnny
