Ferolli Modena leaking problems.

[tim77]

Hi all new to the forum, hoping someone can help.
I have a Ferroli Modena 80 E, I recently changed the PRV (about 6 weeks ago) last night I found it leaking from the top seal. The washer and the clip seem to be fine but I can't stop it from leaking.
Does anybody have any ideas how I can stop it leaking as I don't really want a swimming pool in the loft?

Thanks, a very helpful forum. I'll try somewhere else in future.

Most of us are professionals and try and stick to what we know. If everyone else is like me - enters customers house, sees ferroli, makes an excuse to go to van, drives off - then there won't be any expertise on the site.

Any chance you can change it for a better make of PRV?
The PRV is after all something you don't want to take any chances with, it may be required to work some day. I must admit though 6 weeks and the seals leak is a bit much, even for what is sometimes regarded as not very well made products.

Hmm! Has it been blowing off?
In other words has the system pressure been that high the PRV is blowing?
If so, I would investigate it immediately if not sooner.
