Ok, this is the main shutoff for the supply side of my hydronic boiler. It is, I think, 1 1/4 pipe. I have had to close it a few times in the last few months while working on the heating system, and every time I do so it starts dripping, and keeps dripping![]()
after I open it all the way again. But, after a few days it stops. The problem is, it could turn into a horror story. I figure I'll just wait till spring or summer and do it. But, I'm concerned that it could be like a water pump on a car, go from dripping to gushing in no time flat.
