Pressure gauge when the boiler is off is 1.5 bar.
After turning on CHS, pressure steadily rises to 3.5 bar over a period of about 10 minutes.
Then it starts discharging water from the bottom of the boiler onto the floor.
No leak occurs until pressure hits 3.5 bar.
I can't find the stated 'pressure release valve', but the leak seems to be occurring from behind the heat exchanger part - it's all dry above and below it.
Boiler is an Ideal 24.
Any ideas?
