Hi All
I have a problem with my boiler pressure. I called out an engineer because of this, he piggy backed a new EV to the boiler, no difference after he left. The pressure was up to 3bar within 2 hours. I noticed a leak on the PRV so replaced it with a new one, checked the the EV pressure, ok at .75, filled the system, bled the radiators, no problem. I have not tried the heating yet because the pressure is rising just from using the taps, I have to drain off about 3 pints every day to get the pressure down. The water is now so hot you could almost make a cup of tea with it, you can not wash your hands under it. Boiling hot water from the tap, lovely, but not with the pressure problem. Any answers please? Thanks in advance.
