And if you *have* managed to spill iquid CO onto your boiler, how will you know, apart from maybe cracks due to localised cooling, that you have spilled any, given that it will evaporate immediately? I wonder if you mean CO leakage from boiler (eg from flue or burner area due to incomplete combustion) rather than spillage on, which implies a liquid. |

I wonder if you mean CO leakage from boiler (eg from flue or burner area due to incomplete combustion) rather than spillage on, which implies a liquid. Spillage applies to gasses too. In this context it means combustion products which fail to be drawn into an open flue, and "spill" out into the room. However, the RS in the boiler model number presumably means Room Sealed, so in this case spillage shouldn't be able to happen. If you have CO from a room sealed appliance, it means you probably have two faults: 1) it's generating CO due to poor combustion. 2) the CO is leaking into the house somehow, either because it's not correctly room sealed, or because the CO re- enters after leaving the flue terminal. -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] |

Alternatively the poster is suffering from paranoid delusions. Never discount this remote possibility.
