Leak on gland nut Potterton 24 Eco HE

[Paul_J]

Hi guys,

Every few months I find myself changing the gland nut and o ring on my boiler because it starts to leak. I use silicon grease and it looks all good and doesn't leak for ages.

It's the nut where the rod comes out and triggers the hot water.

Is this a common fault or is there a way to stop leaking for longer?

Any tips would be great before I change it again.

Thanks everyone
Paul

Yes. Stop faffing about with something you're neither qualified nor competent to work on and call in a gsr.
