Intergas HRE 10 OV boiler drips water whenever heating is turned off

Hello Everybody,

Can someone please identify a problem, which my seven years old Intergas HRE 10 OV boiler is facing now days? Few days back, after switching off the boiler is heating I have noticed that it is leaking water continuously underneath. In order to get the hot water, I always top up its pressure. Moreover, the drip would hardly stop for some time & after that, the same problem arises again.  What should I do? Should I replace it?

Looking Forward

Thanks

Ed

Hi Ed,

I guess the joints have become a bit lose especially from the heating and conserving cycle. It is advised to place a drip pan directly under the leaking range (all the drips would disappear quickly), then every time you turn it off to check all the connections and joints with wrenches in order to find an unfastened connection or joint.  You can also get your boiler checked by a specialized boiler engineer.
