The pressure in my lpg boiler is normally around 1 bar. The other day I noticed it had dropped to .75 bar. I topped it up to 1 bar. When I checked the next day it had gone up to 2.5 bar. and when I checked outside it was venting water. I bled the radiators; there was a lot of air in one and I have since run off some water from a rad, yet the pressure remains the same with water venting outside. Any ideas what could be wrong?

Thanks
 
most likely you have left the filling loop open, it is recommended that the filling loop is left disconnected and only to connect it when filling up then d/c again to prevent stuff like this happening, you could damage your system.
