Baxi Duo-tec Combi HE a pressure now too high

[sleevesrolledup]

Hello

After an E119 code this morning, I re-pressurised the system after fiddling about with the taps below.

When I then turned on the hot water, the pressure went up to 3 and it is not moving!

How can I bring this down again?

Thank you

Babs

Bleed some water out from a convenient radiator valve, using a square key...it takes a while but its the simplest way!

I think the question you should be asking is: why did it suddenly shoot up to 3?

Thank you, John - that did the trick.

@bengasman - I think I overdid the re-pressurising - user error

All settled down now and found the leaky radiator that is causing the E119 too.

If it went up that high really fast, your ev is flat or dead.

think the op may have left the loop open. new ones are a bit fiddly to operate. as ben says though. watch the pressure to see that it doesn't rise unduly once the heating goes back on again.
