We moved into a newbuild 18 months ago but over the last 2 months the overflow pipe to my boiler (located directly outside the side of the house, not to a drain) constantly drips. This only happens when the "hot water" is activated, and not when "central heating" is activated. The pressure of the system is fine at 1.5 bar (doesn't change) but when the hot water comes on it drips very fast for the whole duration, leading to quite a puddle outside. I know next to nothing about boilers but guess I have a condensing one (Make is Ideal Logic 18) rather than a combi as I have a large hot water storage tank upstairs. This has only happened in the past couple of months and didn't happen before that, so it can't be right. Anyone got any advice what I should do? Many thanks!!

If it's condensate it should be piped to a waste/soil pipe/drain/hopper or a soak-away. Doesn't comply with building regs as is. Complain.
