Ariston Microgenus 24 PRV

[qbto]

Where is the PRV on a Ariston Microgenus 24 ?

Pressure in mine was allowed to get over 3 bar, PRV blew allowing system to vent externally. But now cant get system to maintain pressure, suspect PRV needs reset, but I cant find anything that looks like a PRV.

How do you expect to "reset" it ( if you can find it ) ?

You cannot 'reset' the PRV

If after over pressure, it now dripping all the time, then it is cuffed and will need replacing. Perhaps it will be a good idea to get the boiler serviced as deterioration in operation often leads to this valve weeping. Anyone attending would normally come with the said valve if you told them your worries. I carry an assortment of PRVs ready to go if there is a need to replace one that is broke

Do you want the job mate ?

I've found the PRV but sod knows how you get it out without dismantling half the boiler.
