LEAKING CENTRAL HEATING.

[tvman]

Hi, I have small bore central heating, there is a leak by one of the rads, it appears to be coming from the pipe which is buried in the solid conrete floor. Before I start digging up the floor is there any advice or suggestions to make it as trouble free as possible. The house is rented out at the moment and I am trying to keep any mess and disturbance to the minimum. Regards TV man.

Is the copper pipe in direct contact with the concrete or is it insulated?

The pipe may have been corroded in the concrete, no advice, just good luck

THANKS FOR REPLYING , NOT SURE IF ITS INSULATED , THE HOUSE WAS BUILT 35 YEARS AGO SO I WILL JUST HAVE TO DIG IT OUT AND HOPE IT WORKS OUT OK .REGARDS TV MAN
