Me again, another minor problem with my new house!
The HW tank is a Megaflo tank, and there is an intermittent drip from the pipe outside coming from the pressure reflief valve. The user guide for the tank has instructions for recharging the expansion air volume which should stop this (close off mains supply, turn on hot tap and open pressure relief valve, wait until flow stops, and turn on supply again).
Is this a fairly common thing to have to do? And canI expect any dramas or does it normally go off without a hitch? Just after a bit of reassurance really.
Thanks!
Matt
