Will water run through a switched off boiler.

[Chris2023]

Long story short I have a leak from possibly the flexi hose that connects to the upstairs hot water tap.

I've switched off the boiler and mains water and waiting on a plumber but not sure when they'll arrive.

My question is if I leave the boiler off and then turn the water back on so I can use the Toliet and get water. Will the flow still push through the boiler and continue leaking?

Yes it will still flow

There should be an isolating valve under the boiler to turn the hot water off. They may be labeled "cold" or you could follow the water main if you can.

Alternatively if you take a photo and post it here I can tell you which.

Thank you for the reply, plumber attended pretty quick to replace the hose and confirmed everything you said. All sorted now.
