I have a weeping joint on the compression joint on the copper pipe going up to a Rad valve upstairs. I've tightened up the joint but it still weeps, it really needs re-doing.
I have a sealed system, X100 was only put in recently. So the problem I have is in order to fix the joint I'll have to drain off at least half of the system(to get the water level below the level of upstairs).
But I'm also draining off all the X100 and it's £15 a pop. Is there no avoiding it? Other than draining off the system into a load of buckets and then filling it back up with the same water?
