Strange behaviour from unvented cylinder
Discussion
I have been trying to track down a leak in my boiler pipework for some time. Leak sealer fixed it for a year, but now it's returned and I need to fix it. (Megaflo, oil boiler, separate DHW + CH loops).
In the meantime, I top up once a day back to 1 bar via the filling loop.
A few times recently, I have heard water continuing to run from the incoming water feed for about 10s after I close the filling loop valve.
It stops if I turn off the mains - I took off the filling loop and it's not leaking from there - so the water must be going into the tank
What would cause this?
