Great heaters if properly fitted... I repaired a couple of leaks in mine in the past... I replaced it in the end... I wish I hadn't...

Now... a question... Are you certain where the leak is coming from? Mine had a frost damaged leak and it looked as though it was coming from a fitting but in the end it turned out to be a split in the pipe above the fitting... an easy to repair with solder fault...

Sorry if this is Grandmas and Egg sucking...

JJ :Cool:

There is someone on ebay who repairs these and sells 2nd hand ones.

May be worth a look to see if they are near you
