We are new to all this so please bear with us, we have a 1994 abi herald, everthing is working fine apart from a small problem with the water heater. we are getting around a bucket a day of warm/hot water dripping out of what seems to be an overflow/expansion under the caravan, The overflow/expansion pipe come from a t connection with the pipe that feeds the hot water to the taps etc...

We have a what looks like a fused spare with a red light on it  that lights up whan we are on mains hook up, we also have on the wall near all the plugs and switches a carver switch with 3 lights on it.

We have had both these on , from reading up a little on the net am I right thinkig that this is not the correct way to do it as we only need 1 or the other not both.

Would us having both on make for the over flow  produce so much water (possible getting to hot).

Any advice welcome

Cheers

Any chance of posting a photo of the offending connection?

There's usually a drain valve that allows manual drainage of the heater when you leave site and I'm wondering if this is simply leaking as this valve would discharge to beneath the van.
