Easy Question: BAR Pressure issues....

Newbie Simple Question - BAR Pressure

Hi,

I have a very simple question.

I can't turn my Radiator Thermostat on my Boiler above 2, otherwise my BAR Pressure needle goes into the Red.
How do I correct this? My own theory is too release some water out of the Radiators. Just want to check with you guys. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I have an issues with the BAR Pressure of my Radiators....

I have too top the water up about 4 times a year, probably only half a cup full in total.

Anyway, for this winter I've had the Radiator Thermostat set to 2 because any higher and the BAR needle goes into the Red.
This means the Radiators are luke warm.

Today, I drained some water from the Radiators, and manage to get the Radiator Thermostat to 6, the BAR Pressure needle was just outside the Red and the Radiators where very hot. But when I turned of the heating, the BAR Pressure dropped and I got a warning light and I had to top the water up again.


Help and Advice would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
