Hi I have a double Solux roof integrated solar thermal flat panel which has developed a water leak since the cold weather earlier this year. I can't see where the water is leaking from because it is running between the roof felt and slates then into the gutter/downspout. Does any one know if it is possible to repair a leaking panel, how you would go about it and where I might source a replacement if repair is not possible. Many Thanks
 
most likely to be the connection from the pipework to the panel to get to it you need to remove the flashing and a few tiles.
 
Thanks every one. I have managed to source a replacement panel at a reasonable price which we will be fitting next week. We will stand a better chance of repair with the old panel down on tera firma. If it can be repaired, it is a ZEN 2.5m2 panel, we will try to sell as a used item in working order. Thanks again to all who replied.

I have attached an image of the brass body within a tap. Having replaced a cartridge which has cured a leaking tap, I can see that there is a small leak from the brass body which can be unscrewed. Is there a seal behind the body? Thanks.
