Hello
I need to replace leaking solder joints and add a radiator to my
sealed system, which is fed by a combi boiler.
After reading various DIY advice website pages, they recommend that I
should contact a plumber for all sealed system work but state that I
can attempt this work if I had an 'open vent' system instead.
Is there major safety issues and additional working procedures
involved with sealed systems repairs? or is ok for an average DIYer to
tackle a sealed system without contacting a plumber?
Thanks
Paulo
