Afternoon all
went to do a LL cert today and tenant mentioned a smell of burning plastic before I started. Took cover off and could see that where the condense trap meets the hex pipework the trap has burnt and melted causing a leak. I have ID'd it but LL has asked me to go back to try n fix. Boiler is an Ideal Minimiser 40FF 16 years old, just wondered if anyone had experience of these and what may have caused it. The damage is obvious but not the cause. No obvious cracks or splits or heat damage to the hex or burner.
Any my thoughts appreciated.
