I have recently moved into a rented property, and the first day we had the central heating on, water started spitting quite heavily out of the loft near the loft hatch.
We've been into the loft as it's happening and noted the following:
We know when it's going to start leaking as a there is a loud rumbling noise.
One of the pipes that we think leads to the boiler which goes into the smallest of the three tanks was spitting out boiling hot water (poss too hot?), so severley and with so much pressure that it was spurting out everywhere and causing the lid to keep jumping off. Also the lid does not fully cover the top of the tank, whereas the other two tanks are completely covered.
Could it be that the boiler is faulty?
Hot water from the taps is unusually hot, could the thermostat have gone?
