Hi
We have a Halstead Ace High boiler which is supposed to be at about 1.2 bar when cold but when on it gets too hot and the pressure goes way too high activating the PRV.
It seems to be happiest at about 0.5/0.6 bar when cold and we don't get any issues, but this isn't right is it? Even if I fill it to 1.2 bar when cold it will soon be down to 0.6 of it's own accord. Aside from the PRV activating I guess it could be a leak in the pipework somewhere but it never gets below 0.5 bar which wouldn't really be the case if it had a leak would it.
Been like this for a couple of years now.
What do we reckon?
Thanks
