Why does the pressure keep dropping on my combi boiler?

There are 3 possible reasons for the pressure dropping. 1. you may have a leak somewhere on the system (boiler, radiators or pipework) 2. the pressure relief pipe may be activating (have a look at the pipe outside) 3. the expansion vessel may be flat and requires pumped back up. you can carry out a visual inspection on the system and the pipe outside, but you will require a qualified engineer to inspect the boiler.

What is the best combi boiler?

We are a Baxi Member here at SG Services and I believe Baxi platinum are the better combi boilers on the market; the boiler has been around for a few years now and is proven to be efficient and reliable. With a manufacturers guarantee of 10 years, they obviously have a lot of faith in its reliability. As for the kind of property suitable, there are different sizes of the Platinum, but a 2/3 bedroom house with 1 bathroom would suit a 28kw boiler version. To install a Baxi Platinum, I would charge £2,000 to customers.
