Ok plumbing is not my thing at all, noticed staining to sitting room ceiling and it sagging slightly so thought bath or water tank, went upstairs and damage had been done, obviously had been quite a bit of water.
We have a Heatrae Sadia Megaflo tank and the water had been overflowing from the tundish think it's called.
I shut off the mains supply to the house, there was a diagram showing a cold supply that should be in the vicinity but only seen a red wheel to turn so closed that anyway.
As we have been subject to -20 and the like where we are what is the likely cause of this, overflow frozing causing pressure build up?
I have gone outside and looking for your run of the mill overflow but cant seem to see anything, maybe hidden behind icicles right enough.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
