T500 Reflux column leak

Postby Leatherman » Sun Apr 08, 2018 3:56 pm

Hi everyone,

So as it says in topic name, I have a leak in top of column of T500. Attaching picture. And no, it is not condensate. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix it? It looks as a very minor leak, but it is still a leak. Or maybe does anyone know how long this column has a warranty? Could find that info.

Many thanks for your answers.

Is the leak the dark ring around the copper pipe???? when you say "it is not condensate" are you saying it's not the vapour?? or it's condensation ??
I tried to be normal once, worst two minutes of my life.

I have viewed as a large image and am struggling to see a leak also.
The dark gasket does appear darker in one place..
