Hi guys weekends here again..
Got a junior 28i about 12 year old boiler
The pressure is constantly topping up!
With or without the filling loop key .
The client has gone away until next week and not going to do any further work until they return and have left no number to contact whilst away and left me the door keys.. haaa.. this sounds fishy.
Getting back to the issue
The prv is discharging and when isolated obviously no hot water ( few drips and drabs from the hot outlet) but still pressure will gradually build up on the gauge?
Few things is ISO letting by??
Either the internal fillig loop letting by??
OR a hole in the PHE( plate heat exchanger) calorifier constantly building up and discharges through PRV??
Also a banging kettling noise when working on central heating ( this I think would be the constant induction of fresh mains water scaled up in the exchanger causing a blockage, the constant bang bang".
I'm thinking of just applying a " DO NOT USE lable filling out A C12
Would i be correct to issue this and assist the boiler is unsafe to use?
Switch off?
If anyone has this advise would be grateful thanks.
1st thing - Tightness test was succesful.
