Hello All,
First post and looking for some advice before speaking to plumbers or pursuing warranty on boiler.
Had the Integas RF36 installed 2yrs ago by their recommended installers and have never had any real confidence that the boiler was maintaining pressure as I've been topping it up regularly via the filling loop. But recently it has been almost daily since new radiators were installed back in November - but I've checked inside house and cellar and all connections are sound. This morning I ran the boiler for 30mins and tied a bag onto the pressure release pipe at the back of the house and as the picture shows quite a lot of water has escaped from the system. This must be the cause of the problem but I don't understand how this can happen on a new system and what the issue is. Any advice on how to approach this with Intergas and/or plumber would be welcome and any thoughts on how this could happen would be appreciated.
Cheers
Franco
**in case pic doesn't show there's about 400ml of water!!
