Help please
I had the above boiler installed a month ago. I've noticed that for the last week it has been losing pressure. I can find no leaks.
Have just had a play with it.
Cold pressure tonight was 0.7. Rose pretty quickly to 2.0 after 5 minutes.
Cooling at the moment but I expect it to settle at less than 0.7 and will probably be less in the morning. The pressure certainly rises more than 0.5-1 on heating the boiler, irrespective of cold starting pressure
The pipe that goes through wall to the outside, although I haven't seen it drip is definately wet when I touch the end of it.
I've done a bit of reading online and and hope that its the PRV that has gone. Anyone agree? Would the boiler still lose pressure when cold if this was the case.
Many thanks
