Hi guys,
My parents have a combi boiler which was installed about 12 years ago and has been working fine. The other morning there was a bang and water started pouring out under the boiler.
I went over to help them out and had a quick look, 2 soldered joint on the cold water feed to the boiler had come apart completely. They got this fixed by a plumber but once the water was back on more leeks were found. Another cold water pipe on the sink in the downstairs loo had come apart and behind the washing machine in the kitchen was also leaking. That's been fixed today so now the water is back on again we're wondering if we're going to find any more leaks.
The only change to the water system recently was the fitting of a water meter to their supply in the street.
Anybody got any idea what could have happened here?
Many thanks
