    Hi, I have a Baxi Megalfo Compact which has been locking up with an E133 code.

    Vented a rad, now pressure doesn't hold but no evidence of leaks?

    My closed central heating system has been fine for years. 6yr old Baxi combi boiler, 11 radiators.

    Baxi 105he water pressure problem

    Hi. I have a baxi 105he boiler. Pressure is around 0.4 bar so very low. When heating runs it goes up to around 3 bar. If I run the hot water at the same time the pressure goes up to around 3.3 bar and water comes out the pressure overflow pipe. What would cause this? Thanks
