QUESTION FROM ralph chiavelli

my gas broiler leakswater from alargepipeat bottom ofthe broiler causingthe feedvavleto come on every 6minutes how can i find the leak/

ANSWER FROM HOME-WIZARD

Dear Ralph:

If you are seeing water leaking from the pipe at the bottom of your gas boiler, then the first thing to do is to get this pipe connection tightened and sealed to see if this stops the leak. If it stops the leak, but you are still seeing your make-up water valve to come on too often, then you have a more difficult task of determining if the water leak is occurring inside of your boiler, or somewhere else in your system (inside of a wall for example).

Hope this is helpful.
