Our boiler has been leaking at a very fast rate. Approximately falling from 2bars of pressure to about 0.5 over a period of one week. The speed at which the pressure is lost has increased over time since we moved in.
We reported this to our landlord when we first moved in and they had a plumber look at it who said that this was normal and that the boiler was just too small for our house.
However I dont beleive this too be true and from reading these forums that rate of pressure loss is concerning.
Also a heating bill is very high and I expect this to be related to the pressure leak. Would I be right?
Since it is very obvious there is a serious leak would I be right in saying that in order to fix it every inch of pipe would need to be inspected meaning a lot of maintanence work?
The reason we ask is we are about to sign a new contract with the landlord, but if the boiler problem is going to need a lot of mainanence work to fix we may just move house.
