thanks for your help everyone. Even though the engineer did not drain anything from the system the pressure was reading close to 0 however I don’t think he fully drained.
I will get into this ASAP.
I understand the correct process would have been to drain to 0 leaving water open. Recharge...
It’s the newer BG532.
In the house I have 8 double radiator and 4 single. Should the stock expansion vessel be able to cope with that or shall I also look at an external as well as replacing the expansion vessel and PRV?
Thanks for all your help.
Thanks. I have defo noted that it does seem to be leaking through the pipe even when not at 3bar so that might be the cause.
That was my main concern in that the more the bill mounts up isn’t worth just swapping the whole thing to give peace of mind for the future.
Thanks for the advice. The engineer that attended did charge up the vessell. Sorry if that wasn’t clear. It doesn’t seem to have helped in terms pressure.
So it seems either the vessel needs replaceing or the capacity is not great enough.
Hello.

As it’s the summer we never used the heating however the hot water worked...
