i turned heating and hot water off last night but fill loop was still connected and this morning it was 2,5 bar so increased without ant heating or hot water on done this just for my own curiosity as the hot water comes on twice a day since having it installed approx 3-4 years ago i...

will give this tomorrow night as i need to get my caps from the shed again just looked at it now and its just going over the 2bar again

just been up and checked pressure with heating and hot water running since last post and its risen by 0.2 bar

thanks for the reply tony i have gone through your procedure and let all air out of system by pushing valve pin in, no water or moisture came out of valve at all, now if i understood this before pushing pin in it read 1.5 bar after all air exvacuated it read zero then opened pressure...

thanks for the reply stardanny is that the actual mega flow cyklinder that may have the pinhole or in the boiler ? i must say i will have to check, but feel its more when the hot water is on it seems to raise and then hold extra pressure even when its cooled back down ,

still pressure in system is increasing on its own any more ideas on what the problem is? its going up by at least 1/2 bar a day

didnt see a point ! just a full stop still i just released the pressuure back to .8bar and no water has come out ,if its damaged that`ll teach me to look more closely, will see how it goes but suspect this may not be the problem as it has held the air ok even if it was to high

ok done that released pressure till 0BAR then pumped cylinder upto 6 bar bloody hard work Lol , opened fill loop till it showed 1 bar then put hot water on just checked it approx 5 hours gone by and its almost at 3 Bar one other thing sometimes when i let the pressure out via knob on top...

thanks will have a look the valve is on the bottom of the expansion vessel when you say depressurise is it just letting the water out the expansion bottle till it reads 0 bar or do i need to disconnect the fuill loop as well or drain the whole rad system thanks again

thanks for quick reply,i did disconnect the fill loop and still the pressure went up i have been doing some reading and it mentions using a foot pump to charge the expansion bottle, how do i check this and carry this out correctly and what pressure should is correct for the expansion bottle...

got a pressurised mega flow system which keeps over pressurissiing , for example yesterday i released the pressure on the top of the red expansion cylinder to below 1bar and this morning its back up to 2bar this has been getting steadly worse for some time i only have the hot water on at the...

thanks for the reply, i did post this in both forums because of different experiences of ppes working with paint and timber marine ply was far to expensive i need 6 sheets in total and figured provided it was better protectectd it would do the same job, the last one was painted with...

i am remaking a box on my trailer out of wpb ply because the last one has shed its skin and is falling apart after only a couple of years! what covering and process would you use to stop the ply falling apart and keep it lasting a lot longer thanks
