What would you suggest I say to the plumber? Our boiler is a Worcester mt10, fed from the mains, no water tank in loft or cylinder, prv at stop tap was only fitted today, would you suggest a expansion vessel because of the prv

Just noticed when the boiler does its pre heat or hot water is used that’s when the static pressure goes up on this gauge, even though I don’t have a water tank it’s all on demand water heating?

Yeah it’s a HA I’ve asked them, they said they are going to pass it onto the supervisor to speak to me about it. If they say no I’ll just pay a plumber to sort it properly, rather that than a flood lol

Okay thank you! When I contacted our housing repairs team I did mention about a drop tight prv, guess they just ignored that part.

Bloody hell so does that mean I’m just going to have the same issue as before then?

The prv they installed was Honeywell D04FM, not sure if it’s a decent one or not?

Just had a pressure reducing valve fitted above the stop cock about 3 hours ago to reduce high static pressure that I had, it was set at 3 bar static and sat on 3 bar after the plumber ran taps etc…. I’ve just noticed that it’s now reading 3.5 bar static is this normal for it to raise slightly?

Will they need to also fit an expansion vessel with the prv? Ive read that one should be fitted.

Recently had new taps on my bath, and when taking the panel off there was a prv under the bath, fitted to the cold feed not sure why it’s there as that’s the only one, but it was reading 7bar static, and around 2.5 with the tap running. i didn’t really believe this, thought it might be a faulty...
