My son has an Ideal Logic Combi ES30 boiler and the it would appear that the external pipe from the pressure relief valve has been dripping constantly for quite some time...several weeks at least. His wife noticed the dripping a few weeks ago but didn’t think anything of it as she’s aware that the plastic condensate pipe drips as well and assumed all was ok !
However, the boiler itself is functioning normally and the pressure is at just over 1.5bar and hasn’t needed to be re-pressurized. The fill-loop is definitely closed tight. The hot water for sink/bath/shower etc is being delivered ’hot’ as per usual.
The rads are working fine and all of them are heated all the way to the way up i.e. no cold section at the top.
Question: is the pressure relief faulty and if so what would be a ball-park figure to get it replaced by a heating engineer?;...or is there another fault?
As ever, all replies gratefully received.
