any help/ideas appreciated
i will use the 'read this first' to try and give right info
1) Boiler make / model (gas or oil) Alpha CB28 gas
2) What is / is not happening - put hot water on and boilder lights after about 10-15 secs makes shuddering noise and pressure gauge shoots up about green area then dorps and system locks out ( red light on)
3) Has ANYTHING else been done / changed recently - radiator removed about 3 weeks ago havent had heating on for 3-4 months
4) When did it (problem) start -last night for kids bathtime
5) When does it happen? eg, heating coming on or going off - HW on
6) Anything else you feel may be of relevance - alpha boilers said its air in expansion tank and to re-pressure to 0.8 - i cant find valve to use to attach pump - taken front off but not obvious
7) Please also be patient for a reply, no one gets paid to reply on these forums, and like you, our "pros" have a daytime job to do.
Any help appreciated - kids will start to smell soon
thanks Matt
