dripping

Hi everyone! There's an annoying drip in the top tank which is constant. It's not overflowed or anything but I am concerned it will. After reading this forum I came to the conclusion it might be a faulty ball valve (simply going off what other people have said about similar issues). I have no...

Hi, When my central heating has been on for a bit the central heating header tank overflow is dripping about one drip every second or two. Not such a problem at the moment but it wasn't doing this a month ago so I guess something has gone wrong. I have an old Vulcan Gas boiler. The water pump...

Hello! The outside overflow pipe to my boiler drips down the wall and a neighbour said I need to attach a pipe to it and run it down to the ground so that waste water goes into ground and not down the brickwork. I am a pretty amateur at DIY but wondered if anyone could help explain how I would...

In the Central Heating part of forum, Rystar00 I can't believe the cheek of some people! He, or she is polite and gives good detail and photos, but after being told a week or two ago that he needs a G3 plumber, he is back on claiming the G3 plumbers couldn't manage it! So now the OP just wants...

Hi guys, I made a thread about this a few weeks ago. I have started a new one as the issue is slightly different and I'm not sure people would read it if I continued it on! I have cold water dripping from the Tundish. I have a Fabdec Excelsior WDI unvented cylinder with an internal expansion...

Hello, I have joined this site to try and get some help with a central heating issue I seem to be having. The hot water supply to the shower and taps stopped working this morning, and after some fiddling this evening, we managed to restore it by regenerating the internal air gap in the the...

Good afternoon, My daughter has a very cold kitchen with no radiators and the heating to the rest of the house goes off at night. This morning, after probably the coldest night of the year, once the wall mounted gas boiler came on it dripped onto the worktop about a quarter of a cup of water...

I have got up this morning to a cold house and noticed the boiler was making a noise but was not firing, the oil tank is 3 quarters full and it worked perfectly the night before. The pressure gauge is reading 2.5 bar and the lockout switch is not illuminating. There is water dripping from a few...

I've had an issue come up that I'd welcome some advice on. Whenever I turn a tap on now (e.g. my bathroom sink), the other taps/outlets in the flat then also dribble (to various degrees). There are only a small number of outlets (1 bathroom sink, one shower, and one toilet). I don't think it's...
