Hi Guys,
Water has been dripping from the Central Heating Temp Sensor on and off for months, however is now dripping more or less constantly. Have tightened it slightly, which made a temporary improvement, but alas its back to a constant drip.
Sensor itself appears to work fine, however looks extremely scaled up/corroded around the joint with the pipe.
2 questions before I drain the system and attempt to remove it.
1) do you think its just the o-ring behind that needs replacing or the whole sensor if it is badly corroded and cannot be cleaned up
2) Any ideas where to actually obtain a replacement o-ring, and does anyone have a parts number for it? Can find the sensor on most websites but no-one ever seems to stock misc parts like o-rings. Does it have to be a genuine part of can I buy something similar from B&Q etc etc..
Thanks
