Leaking pipes from boiler

[Tom__L]

Hey - hope you're well,

These two pipes on my boiler have started leaking - not tons of water, but regularly and enough to be an issue.

The insulation around both have become holed / broken, presumably from said water.

You can see a photo here: Screenshot 2023-04-24 at 06.42.32.png - https://www.dropbox.com/s/8o4ce6wyt9mopvf/Screenshot%202023-04-24%20at%2006.42.32.png?dl=0

Hoping this is something I can sort myself - a case of just needing to tighten a valve or something rather than call a plumber out. Be great if someone was able to help - thanks!

It’s not a boiler, it’s a heat interface unit (hiu). It also appears that it could be one leak, but the water has dripped downwards onto the lower pipes being round. Trace the leak upwards, and see if there’s a nut that wants tightening

It looks like the leak is from higher up, the picture blurred on magnification but there is some evidence on that valve of a leak.
It may be that the left joint on the valve I've indicated will need to be stripped and cleaned to stop the leak, but for now just try to tighten it.
You'll need to grip the valve to stop it twisting while you tighten the nut.
