Hi the Vaillant Eco tec 415 in my home has a leak, I moved into this house 2 days ago obviously tried the boiler for a while and everything was fine for about 1 hour then water started dripping in slow drops from the left hand side of the picture, if you look carefully on the picture you can see a drop of water on the black electrical cable(this scares me) I thought the water might be from the condensate and acidic so I have tested it and its
Ph reading is 2.9 so this is acidic water, but as you can see from the picture the condensate is on the other side,
Few points...The water only drips when the heating is on.
It doesn't start dripping strsight away, it starts after maybe I hour,
And the drips sometimes get quicker then stop for a while.
I've been told the boiler is 2years old.
Many thanks for your help
Maybe more pics in my gallery..sorry first post

It will be the condense or flue hood

The bottom of boiler fills up and drips out where ever it can.

Call an rgi and get it checked
