Hi,
Im hoping this isnt something serious as the boiler was only serviced a couple of weeks ago.
Last night i bled one of the radiators as it had air in. A little later on we noticed water coming from underneath the boiler, not a lot but it had formed a puddle.
Noticed the pressure gauge was below the 1bar red line.
can low pressure cause a leak?
I moved the lever on the diverter valve to the middle possition and filled the system upto just over 1bar.
Its been running now for 5 mins or so with no visable water. Do you think its safe for me to go to work now??
EDIT:
Its been running now for an hour and a half still no sign of water. Ive noticed that the pressure is now up to 3bar. Is such a large difference normal? Im sure ive never noticed it this high before!
