That means you either messed up big time with the levels when you refilled the system after changing the thermostat, or, you have a slow leak.

If it's the former, shyt happens. Live and learn, happens to all of us at some point.

If it's the latter, a jug of Bar's Stop Leak works wonders. If you really need a miracle, CRC Copper Weld is divination in a bottle.
