Possible Causes

Overfilled system, Faulty expansion vessel, Stuck filling loop valve, Faulty pressure relief valve

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Allow the system to cool. High pressure can cause hot water discharge.

  • Check gauge: Confirm the current pressure reading. Anything significantly above the recommended maximum (often 2.5–3.0 bar) indicates excessive pressure.
  • Release pressure: Bleed a small amount of water from a radiator bleed valve or a drain point into a container until the pressure returns to normal.
  • Check filling loop: Ensure both filling loop valves are fully closed, and the hose is removed if required by local regulations.
  • Expansion vessel check: If the pressure rises sharply when heating, the expansion vessel may be flat or have failed. A technician should test, recharge, or replace it.
