Anyone do this?
How often do you have to go back because the PRV drips after testing?

I have been asked to service a boiler and cylinder but not sure it’s worth the hassle
 
change the blow offs always or strip and clean them at a min then test
 
I always warn them first , and usually ask them to watch me .
Then if they leak they end up saying “ you said it may leak “

How are you Scott , surely not back at work ?

Every two weeks or so I have to go and top up the system because the hot taps are running cold. Boiler display is flashing 0.6 bar and I fill up to 1.3. I've had an engineer look inside the boiler and he can't see anything wrong. I've checked the pipes all over the house and cannot see any...
