It appears I have a leak on my heating system somewhere. Had the plumber out three times now - Combi Boiler checks out. Have isolated the hot water system and no leak was found on the boiler. Pressure gauge looks fine. Upon opening the valves to the heating system over approx 2-3 days pressure is lost (F22 error).
Have found a few minor leaks on radiators. All fixed. No further water found and pressure still dropping. There is no leak noticeable on the ceilings or around radiators which led the plumber to conclude it is likely within the floorboards... Now this is where it gets frustrating. I have a 1970s house where the copper piping has been laid over with cement / screed (?) and under tiles! With insulation and carpet then placed ontop excluding the kitchen and utility room.
My plumber said that finding the leak will be a needle in a haystack scenario and once one pops up more can easily follow. We could attempt to find the leak and repair it but he suggested just re-doing the entire system. Initially I looked at the fix route but it appears doing that really is only temporary.
Wondered if anyone else has suffered similar or knows of people that have?
