Hi
I have a ideal logic 30kw system boiler runnong central heating and underfloor heating and an invented tank.
The boiler has always lost pressure to a degree but now it's worse than ever.
I've fitted isolators downstairs so I can turn that off and it still loses pressure. With the UFH isolated it still loses pressure. I have checked 90% of the pipework and fittings upstairs and I can't see a leak. All rad valves etc. I have pressurised to 2 bar and turned boiler off no leaks.
Left an aerosol lid under the prv pipe and it's bone dry.
It was losing a small amount then recently 0.2 bar a day. Now about 0.5 a day. It seems to lose more pressure when the ufh is on but I think k that's just because it stays on for longer periods.
Last week I put 2 bar in and isolated boiler,waited several hours for condensate to dry up then left an aerosol id under the condensate drain.
It filled the lid to approx 30mm deep overnight.
I feel it's the heat exchanger, and I'm looking at a new boiler because I have run out of ideas....
Any help would be great!!!!
