Leaking PRV on Valiant Turbomax plus

[Paul Cockhill]

Hi

Am going to a client who has a weeping leak on a PRV leading to a VAliant Turbomax plus boiler. The PRV is to the right of the CH return pipe.

Would it be best to try and just tighten the valve or drain a little water out and then repressurise?

thanks


Paul

Hi Paul

You can't tighten a prv unless it's on the systen side ... not sure if you have a nut or rely on an 'o'ring TBH

To repressurise you got to maintain zero system pressure though!

Thanks diamondgas, I think it is a nut to tighten but will call manufacturer when there

thanks for help
