Hi plumbing hives
I’m wondering if someone could provide some advice (please!!!!!). I have an issue that my system boiler pressure is constantly over pressurising. The boiler manufacturer have sent an engineer out he says the boiler is fine (it’s only 15mths only). The suggestion from the boiler engineer is is that the cylinder tank (Velux TFF 300) core has likely failed, pushing water bank into the central heating system. It’s not the feed loop into the system. I’ve removed that and the valves are working fine. I have a plumber coming on Monday, but wanted to isolate the tank from the system, so we could at least get some heating on in the meantime. Is this possible? I’ve tried turning the valves off in the cylinder cupboard that I thought controlled the feed/return to/from the boiler, but the pressure keeps rising. Any ideas? Any advice would be gratefully received.
