Have one of Peter Fogwell hot water units and last night was - 4 and I didn't put my greenhouse heater in the back off the van so all frozen this morning
so have just defrosted everything and tried to use it but water is coming out of the side and bottom of the unit
NOW can it be repaired or do I have to get a new one!
Please help

I know it's too late now. But does this system have a drain screw like the L5 ?
On my L5 i also blow all the water out each night to make sure

Andy, take the cover off and if its anything like an L5 inside, you should be able to tighten up the screws that hold the brass unit together inside.
I did this on mine and all seems fine
