Hi Guys,
Here's and good one.
Called to the above which had a leak on the boiler. Closer examination revealed that the expansion vessel had a blown diaphragm and was full of water, and started to leak.
Replaced the expansion vessel, re-filled the system and fired her up.
All is well. CH working a treat and DHW reasonable. No issues. Nicely running at 1.5Bar.
2 Days later, the customer calls to say the boiler is off again.
Returned to find no leaks, no system pressure, expansion vessel fine.
Topped up the pressure and checked again for leaks. No issues with the PRV, filling loop installed in reverse so not going back into CW supply and definately no leaks in the property. All runs are exposed with nothing under the floor and no marks on the ceilings.
The only thing out of the ordinary, is that the thermostat is turned to 10Deg overnight and then back to 20Deg in the morning when they get up.
Q: Where did the pressure go to? or is it a faulty pressure gauge potentially affected in the initial incident?
