Hello, first post so be gentle with me. The boiler was in the house when we bought it, yes I know it is not the best in the world. The problem. When firing water dripping out of inner case. Before I get ear ache I have not even remove the outer case. The boiler has just been serviced and no internal leak found, I have never had to top up the sistem in the last four months or so. The service engineer had no idea where the water is coming from.
The flue is twin pipes, not concentric, except where it passes through the wall, and about five meters long. My thought is that the water is condensation in the air intake pipe as some times there is no leak depending on the weather. It is not rain related, just in cold damp weather. Have checked the pH of the leakage water and it is not acidic.
Any thoughts appreciated. Regards John.
 
Thoughts are there's nothing you can do, unfortunately. You need a gsr in to look at it.
