Hello, my hot water cylinder is producing a rusty trickle from the top valve and has been leaking for a few days now (judging by the amount of wet towels!).
I have turned off the water feed to the house, turned off the 2 valves in the airing cupboard and ran the hot taps until empty.
I've put a call out for a plumber but in the meantime wondered the best route for putting the heating on. If I turn the water to the house back on but keep the airing cupboard valves switched off - can I run the boiler for the central heating?? or will this still cause damage?
