I also drain the waist water every 2 weeks or so.
I check the low water cut off by having the
furnace run while I open the waist valve into
a bucket. The water level drops quickly
even though the boiler is not empt and
the burner shuts off.
Do you know how high he let the water go
before you saw a leak?
I had the occasion to forget to shut the
filler completely and a few hours later the
radiators were getting full.
It may be there is a bleader on the boiler
that is leaking.
