Damn, acidic nasty stuff, I guess I better keep the dog away from it until I get this rectified. Is it the sort of thing I can just plumb it into the nearest drain via extending the pipe and put some caulk in the hole? Or is it best to query it with my gas engineer? He didn't install the boiler, it was already here when I moved in, but he has serviced the boiler twice since I've lived here and never said anything about this outlet.
Don't panic too much, it's not gonna melt your dog but does need sorting and I'd ask your service guy why he never pulled it up with you. He needs to do it really or someone gas safe... Just to be on the safe side
