Hi,
Vented system, F&E Tank etc.
Cylinder about 10-12 years old.
Just running some x800 through to try & improve radiator heat. (another story)
Been in a couple of hours.
Just run a bath & the water has a slightly odd brown'ish tint to it.
never had before. does not smell.
Is there anyway it has leached into the fresh water. I simply cannot imagine but too much of a coincidence!
I know the pipe can get furred up with limescale etc. but surely cannot cause a leak.
I know lots don't like the x800 but as I understand now not that caustic like it use to be.
The only other thought is I have been using the emersion heater a lot so can concentrate all the heat through the rads.
Top of tank has got quite a lot lotter than normal, just wondered if perhaps freed off some limescale or other sediment from the pipes on the fresh water side. again unlikely but think more plausible that the leaking option.
Will double check the main cold water but so far seems clear.
Of course now draining down & will really flush & of course did not bath in it.
Any ideas, any way to check?
Thanks I/A
