I have an Albion Thermal Store newly fitted. The pressure control valve is located on the mains inlet after supply to the kitchen and outside tap. The pressure valve is factory set to 3 bar. The guage on the valve indicates that the pressure is going well above the 3 bar, going off the scale (which reaches 4 bar). Any ideas why it is doing this and what risks this is likely to entail. As soon as the hot water tap is turned on at all (even a few drips) the pressure reduces to 3 or below.
I have been advised that a pressure reducing valve installed at the kitchen sink will alleviate this. Any help gratefully received.
