FAQs
How much Corgi Leak Sealer should I use?
One 0.5-liter bottle is usually sufficient for a typical domestic central heating system (up to 10 radiators).
How long does it take for Corgi Leak Sealer to work?
The product is usually effective within 1 to 24 hours.
Can I use Corgi Leak Sealer in any type of heating system?
Yes, it is compatible with all Eco central heating products and is suitable for use with both open vented and sealed systems. However, corrosion protection must also be carried out by adding inhibitor.
Do I need to turn off my heating system before using the product?
No, you can usually add the product while the system is off or on. After adding it, turn the system on to allow circulation and bleed the radiators.
What should I do after using Corgi Leak Sealer?
After completion of treatment, peel the installation label from the side panel and attach to boiler casing. Record the date for future reference.
Is it safe to use Corgi Leak Sealer?
Follow the instructions and safety guidelines on the product packaging. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and eye protection, when handling chemicals.
Where do I add the leak sealer?
For open vented systems, dose via the Feed/Expansion tank. For systems with Power Flushing machines, dose via the reservoir. Otherwise, add directly to the central heating circuit.
Troubleshooting

The leak may be too large for the sealer to handle. Contact a qualified heating engineer to assess the issue.
