I have a Vaillant Ecotec Pro 24 boiler which was installed a yer ago and which has been running normally since then.
Last week it was inspected under an extended maintenance contract and the chap said that there was condensation
from the flue pipe which could run down into the boiler and cause expensive repairs.
He said I should get someone in to re-fix the flue pipe (which is a short standard horizontal outlet through the attachment wall, and is horizontal.)
On inspection, the amount of water seemed to me to be less than a thimble-full - just enough to wet a small area.
He nonetheless signed the boiler off as OK - all readings were within their limits.
I would like to know where this water could have come from and what the implications are, if any?
Thanks for any advice,
John
