    Condensation is as you say on the exhaust pipes ( to atmosphere ) . So as expected . I’ve never removed the heat exchanger unit now so *assume* it’s in the right way round ! . How can I tell ? I think it would fit in either way which sounds like bad design imho . Heat exchanger is a snug fit so no chance of sitting incorrectly.

    I’m actually shitting in the woods thanks

    Well ! vent axis instructions insist on ONE drain . Apparently according to them - 2 drains can conflict and cause vacuum on the other . So drain on left side as instructions dictate . Water on right - as there is no drain . I want to know why vent axia don’t mention this …. I simply can’t be the only person ever to experience this .

    So perhaps its ’normal ‘ ??

    Yous me bro

    No no no - you over complicate that massively ! So you have home automation running a tpu . Cctv ip camera linked to tpu .You can then identify if a person . Tpu then triggers a zigbee relay . Zigbee relay turns on light . Easy peasy until it (expletive deleted)s up of course ! . Then you can have any type of light .

    Poor vent axia ! . The ‘technical’ guy is obsessed that as I don’t have a Hepvo valve this is the issue . I’ve tried explaining multiple times that the water is in a section with no valve . He clearly doesn’t get it !

    Spoke to vent axia - not much help tbh . The water I assume must be from ‘extract from dwelling ‘ . Still confused how this happens ….

    All back together and seems to be working perfectly. Confused how water accumulated on the right though ….

    Other way round for filters ffs !!!
  11. Pocster
    To convince myself! - it's a left handed system. I know this because the left filter has dust from inside whilst the right filter has black/pollution from outside. So I guess whats confusing me is why have water in the right side where there is no drain? -

    I’ve got a warm roof so all pipe work is in that . I’m still confused why both tanks aren’t simply linked and drain to one point . I’ve emailed vent axia too see . Perhaps I’ve just been ‘unlucky ‘ and if regularly serviced would have avoided this …

    Left hand config drain on left; right hand config -drain on right. Mines left hand I believe. So drain is the correct side.... Will drain it, clean it and see.

    Yep . Either side a fan . Below each fan a self contained tank . The only place either can drain is through the plug in the base of their respective tank .This is why I think I might have the drain on the wrong side . But it’s been working perfectly for 4 yrs as is !!
  15. Pocster
    There’s a ‘plug’ on the right side - so I could manually drain it …. But I don’t get how it works if water sits there
  16. Pocster
    That’s the left side I.e drain side . Zero channel to the other side . Almost like it needs 2 drains !!
  17. Pocster
    There seems to be no obvious channel from 1 side to the other!. I must be missing something!!
  18. Pocster
    Really dumb question. Have I got the drain on the correct side!!!????
  19. Pocster
    Covers off exchanger out . theres pooled water but its on the other side i.e not the drain side …
  20. Pocster
    Ok - I’ll take the cover off tomorrow. I’m expecting to see a sea of black mould or some fungus , or a (expletive deleted)ing alien life form , or something (expletive deleted)ing distressing !!!
  21. Pocster
    Drain had water in it ; but not much . Ffs - I’ll take the cover off tomorrow- but I don’t want too ! . (expletive deleted) knows what I’ll see
  22. Pocster
    I’m too scared to open it ! . It sounds like the fan is hitting water ( at least that’s the sound too me ) . Previously sounded like bearings failing . I took the drain off - a bit came out ( with bucket underneath expecting flood ) but nothing much . I could take the 4 screws off the front panel - but then I’m in unknown territory!!!!
  23. Pocster
    Yeah - just seems strange after 4 years. I quickly checked in the loft ( paranoid of a leak ) and could see nothing obviously. The unit itself is making very unnatural noises ( I've recorded it - but won't let me upload the file format ). Anyone recommend a MVHR servicing company for SW ? - I emailed a few a week ago ( when the initial strange noises started ) and had no replies.....
  24. Pocster
    Even the filters at the top are dripping ! What does that suggest ?
  25. Pocster
    Only recently . Sounded like bearings going . But now dripping water out of unit and indeed even off the outlet pipes I think . Check drain seems ok . Any advice ? thanks
