He must be referring to your boiler.

All boilers, like ships have female names.

( Unless he knows something about you that we don't )

Croppie will take an interest in you now - good luck!!!!!

Boiler McBoilerface?

Probably not aligned correctly... The boiler flow & return has to fit nicely onto the washers...

I would also replace the washers & make sure he applies some jointing compound, I have never had many issues with these connections which makes me think it's not lined up correctly or the washer is damaged.

I don't think Worcester will repair that it's an installer issue

But its leaking from inside, second photo looking up into boiler, not from joints onto pipe work

the nut above the iso is the manifold connection not inside the boiler but underneath

Sorry but got to disagree with that, the fitting you see is done in factory, its dripping down onto service valve that is fitted into frame of boiler. anything above this is warranty work.

Nah that's an installer joint.. the boiler sits on that as its part of the jig! I'm guessing you haven't installed a Worcester as there all the same unless we're looking at different things
