Hi,

I have a glow worm boiler (I'll confirm model when I get home). There is a leak coming from the grey plastic condensate pipe. I'll try and attach a pic.
I'm pretty sure the leak is mildly acidic (or really hard water) based on what it did to my hands.

The leak does not persist when the boiler is off.

The leak has not altered the boiler pressure.

I know where the leak is. i just do not know how to fix it or where to begin.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers,
Gavin

The condensate is mildly acidic and won't affect pressure is it is just a by-product of the combustion process. Is it leaking from a loose fitting that should have been glued or is the pipe broken. Maybe post a picture and we can tell you how best to proceed.

Someone told me to use LSX Sealant. Would that do the trick?
