Mend Halstead Ace Vent Boiler System

How do i stop Water leaking out of air vent on Halstead ace combi boiler?

How do i stop Water leaking out of air vent on Halstead ace combi boiler. System keeps dropping to 0. When I top up and raise pressure, leak gets worse before dropping to zero again over next few hours.

I've got the same problem with same boiler. My plumber says-- (1) Change the pressure relief valve, (the "3 bar" device), which is an easy cheap job. (2)--If this doesn't work there is a leak somewhere in the heating system. This can be a nightmare to find, but Fernox do a leak sealing additive so I'm going to try this next.

what do you mean by air vent?? if its the open ended pipe thats outside (15mm) then thats the prv and then that needs to be replaced of if its not that then its the expasion vessel? p.r.v is the red knob inside the boiler that says "3 bar" on it
