#1: Water leak problem. Author: Necro, Location: BedfordshirePosted: Tue Jan 17, 2012 2:07 pm ---- Got water leaking from where the arrow is pointing.
How do I take this box apart so I can investigate further?
It seems like its a few clips holding it together but when I pull on the clips, the box won't budge.
Help!

If it works its a cheap fix!
Did on mine!
#4: Re: Water leak problem. Author: Necro, Location: BedfordshirePosted: Tue Jan 17, 2012 2:48 pm ---- Radseal worked for you when it was leaking from where mine is?

#6: Re: Water leak problem. Author: Necro, Location: BedfordshirePosted: Tue Jan 17, 2012 3:09 pm ---- Any ideas how to take it apart though?
#7: Re: Water leak problem. Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Tue Jan 17, 2012 3:33 pm ---- Think it needs to be taken out whole and swapped.

#10: Re: Water leak problem. Author: Necro, Location: BedfordshirePosted: Wed Jan 18, 2012 6:18 am ---- Any other ideas ppls?
#11: Re: Water leak problem. Author: Deckchair5, Location: Bath UKPosted: Wed Jan 18, 2012 6:29 am ---- Have a look and see if it's an o ring on the supply or return pipes causing the leak.
If not then you'll need to drain the system down and disconnect the pipes in order to remove the matrix
#12: Re: Water leak problem. Author: Necro, Location: BedfordshirePosted: Thu Jan 19, 2012 6:33 am ---- Any ideas on how to unlock the clips holding the twin pipes and the black box together?
I've just been out trying to unclip the thing but nothings working.
#13: Re: Water leak problem. Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Thu Jan 19, 2012 9:47 am ---- you pull the clips up and pull the matrix out like this......
so if it leaking from behind that plate it will need new matrix i would say,
if its comming from bottom of the two pipes were they join, might just need new rubbers on joints, in the joint pictured here......
#14: Re: Water leak problem. Author: Necro, Location: BedfordshirePosted: Thu Jan 19, 2012 10:29 am ---- Got it off. Broke the clips though
Need a new matrix, got a few holes in it
#15: Re: Water leak problem. Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Thu Jan 19, 2012 10:31 am ---- I have the one above for sale, its untested tho but looks in good condition.
