Hi - wondering if anyone can advise what the issue might be with my Bax Megaflo.
See pic below. The is is underside of the Baxi, photo taken from beneath looking upwards. On the mid-left of the photo the dripping was coming from the white round thing. When I waggled it a little it leaked water, when left alone it was dripping, maybe a drop every 5 seconds or so. I unscrewed it, when I realised it would unscrew, and it's like a sump. There is a fair bit of wet fine sand/silt in the bottom of the sump. What I think was happening was that the sump was overfilling and leaking.
Any ideas what's going on? Is this supposed to fill up? My current plan is to see does the sump fill up again, which it seems to be doing, and try to get someone in to service the boiler as soon as I can.
