Replace drain tap on Baxi 105e - is this how?
Dec 3rd, 2013, 8:46pm
 
I need to replace the (white) drain tap on my Baxi 105e combi as it appears to be dripping. Do I just shut off the feed & return taps on the rear tap rail, drain via the white tap into a bucket, replace the drain tap, turn on the feed & return taps and re-pressurise with the filling loop?
Have I missed anything.
Many thanks!

Make sure it isn't dripping down from elsewhere, and take your time

Will do. But I have the procedure right - right?

Never tried it on the Baxi but all sounds about right.

Just one thing looking at the MI, I would also turn the cold mains to the boiler off.

And avoid any water getting on/into the electrics
