Central heating

Hi all, hope everyone is keeping as safe as possible in the current situation? 
I have a quick question and wonder if anyone has any ideas....just used the filling hose to repressurise our central hearing and there is a very worrying tiny drip from the tap at the lower end of the filling hose which is still attached. ..

Any ideas anyone? ??

    Is it a continuous drip or just when you turned on/off the filling loop?

    When I turned it off there is a small drip every 5 mins or so, like it is weapons a little. Could it be that the hose is still under pressure

    Sorry...weeping
  • Photos, please, to show which 'tap' you are referring to. And to show where, exactly, that drip is coming from.

    The filling hose should, however, have a 'tap' (isolator) at each end, and both should be turned off after refilling.
