Hi All
Looking for some advice. Since I switched the heating back on a few weeks ago, the pressure on my one year old Vaillant Ecotec boiler has been dropping by one tenth of a bar each day - so from 1.5 to 1.4 to 1.3 and so on right down to 0.9 this morning when cold. Pressure rises by a few tenths when the heating is on but then drops again when cold. I can't see anything dripping from the pressure relief valve.
Worst case scenario is a leak under my newly laid laminate floor or behind my newly fitted kitchen cabinets! If this is the case, do any of you have any advice on or experience of leak detection companies? As I understand it, they use gas and thermal imaging to find small leaks without having to pull the whole house apart.
I'm waiting for a plumber/heating engineer to call me back, but in the meantime I'd really appreciate any comments or advice.
Cheers!
