Hi,
We have an Ariston ACO combi and today when it's piddled it down, water is coming in through the flue.
It's dripping out where the flue joins together with another piece on the horizontal part. Can't take a pic as camera battery is flat unfortunately but it's the standard flue, goes up a few inches then curves to become horizontal and is joined to another horizontal piece. Basically the drip is where it joins.
Obviously this isn't right, but is it safe? Have it switched off at the mains whilst it drys (some has dripped inside) and obviously don't want to turn it back on until I'm sure it's not likely to be leaking fumes.
Will add a pic later if needed.
Cheers
Ben
