Have to say your video for this is brilliant.... I dont have much confidence in boiler repairs, normally pass to a colleague but you made it so easy and manageable!! Thank You!!
Great video. I do have a question. We recently had a service on our 14 year old Greenstar 24Ri heat-only boiler and the engineer changed the red gasket seal and the electrodes. Soon after doing this, we noticed a drip drip leak under the boiler. When he came to have a look, the leak had stopped and he could not detect where it came from. The next morning, before the boiler started for HW, I noticed the leak again. I took off the cover to see where the leak was and it was coming from the top of the heat exchanger at the point where the red seal was put in. I took a video and showed the engineer who now insists that the heat exchanger has failed and I should change the boiler. Is it possible that the seal has not been seated correctly and that is why I have a leak? He says no because if it had not been fitted correctly it would only leak when the boiler is switched on. Any advice? I've gone from a service to perhaps needing a brand new boiler and before the service I did not have any type of leak.
Hi , you may as well have pulled the baffles and cleaned the hex while you had the lid off as it looked quite dirty and the condition of those electrodes shows it hasn’t been serviced for a long time even if the FP check passes the min... Just saying , not criticism 👍

Does tbis gasket you replaced leak gas. I checked one with gas sniffer and it picked up gas in that area
Hi. It can cause a gas leak, if not replaced for a while. Also a rare possibility on a new one, if, either seal damaged or not sited correctly.
