The heating is firing but the pressure is getting close to the 3bar release valve. I had assumed that air was trapped within the boiler itself. Is there any way i can manually open up the air valve?

thanks for the information. the pump has now been replaced. On a separate not the water pressure is still quite high and i have bleed radiators etc. Do you have any other ideas where air could be stuck?

The boiler doesn't kick in when any hot water tap is turned on as the diverter valve doesn't push the rod far enough to activate the micro switch. should i leave the isolation valves alone - aren't they there for that job ?

Ravenheat RSF 820/20 boiler Hi. I have been having problems with getting the boiler to heat the water for a shower. Found out that it was the diverter value that wasn’t activating the attached microswitch. The problem now is that I don’t have a manual for the boiler and I believe that I...
