Quick one for all my plumbing & heating apprentices 👇
If you’re losing pressure on a system… don’t just top it up and walk away.
That’s not fixing the problem — that’s hiding it.
This week I came across:
đź”§ A leaking auto air vent on a boiler
đź”§ A leaking radiator valve (tenant had already noticed it)
Both small issues on their own… but together?
➡️ Constant pressure loss
➡️ System inefficiency
➡️ Bigger problems down the line
This is what separates average from top engineers:
💡 Don’t just do the job — understand the system
đź’ˇ Always ask: *why is this happening?*
💡 Listen to the customer/tenant — they often spot issues early
Anyone can repressurise a system…
But a proper engineer finds the fault and fixes it right 👊
đź’¬ Question for you:
What’s the most common issue YOU keep seeing on jobs right now?
Let’s help each other level up.
