Hi Tom, It is really good to see you and the guys repairing boilers - I think there can be a thought that an older leaking boiler is not repairable - I'd always like to think it's got to be worth a go! That firebox side stay - could you drill out, tap and screw in a complete new stay, then silver solder to seal? Wishing you and yours a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Yes, it always seems a shame when people scrap a boiler straight away. I’ll hopefully manage to silver solder the rest of the leaks on the next heat, it’s the regulator bush I’m most worried about getting clean enough.

I hope you can get that regulator bush soldered but it would be difficult getting it cleaned if the leak is near to the boiler barrel wall. The only other option would be to drill out the bush, clean the tube plate and solder in a new bush but it's easier said than done. Good luck Tom

Yes, that one I’m a little worried about, but we’ll see how we get on.

Hi Tom, We're you using "Silver Solder" (as we know it) for boiler building, or we're you using a lower temperature "caulking Solder" like "Comsol" for sealing leaks ? Cheers and "Best Wishes" for Xmas and 2024

This is silver solder, I always use silver solder, except as a very last resort, just in case there ever needs to be a repair.

Chasing leaks, particularly inner firebox stays is a dog of a job.

It certainly is, especially on an older boiler, so difficult to get clean enough.
