I noticed that one of the underfloor heating flow meter red indicators (see pic attached) constantly points to (nearly) 3 L/min (see the picture attached), even when heating not in use; Other indicators will move back to zero when not being heated. I am a bit concerned. Is it shown some leaking in underfloor heating (although no visible leakage)? Or inefficient underfloor heating? Is it normal?

Please advise.

Many thanks.

Quite a big leak if it's losing 3 litres a minute, more likely to be a stuck flow meter I think, but you can test it by turning off the two isolation valves on the left of the manifold and seeing if it returns to zero
 
Thank you! hope it is not leaking somewhere.I do not see any visible leakage though. Noticed that problem 5 days ago, if it's losing 3 litres a minute. I should see wet floor, right? Very nervous now. other loops shows nearly 2.5 or 3 L/min as well when heated, but goes back to zero when heating is off.
