Hi,
I recently had my water system upgraded to mains pressure and heated via an ELJAN 6 unit on my hot air heater. After installation, the installer showed me a pressure gauge in the loft and two valves and said the first week I would have to open the valves a couple of times to keep the pressure above 1.5 bar, but after that it shouldn't be necessary to do anymore.
It has now been 4 months and the gauge it pretty much at 1 bar every weekend. I have attached a photo below. Looking at the pipe work, It's a pressurised expansion vessel for the boiler circuit.
Why does this keep dropping? If it's dropping, where does the excess water go? Everything looks dry to me...
