Good afternoon. We have been connected to gas for three years. When the boiler was installed, when it was started, my husband was not at home and I did not pay attention that the pressure on the sensor was jumping - the arrow twitches every time the boiler was turned on. I added water to the system and that's it.
We were told that this is not correct, we need to flush with CO. Washed twice under pressure. The pressure drop hasn't stopped. If the boiler is turned off, the pressure may drop to zero. When hot water is turned on, the arrow twitches.
They put a membrane expansion tank - the situation does not change. Sometimes the boiler gives an error that there is not enough water in the co, we are pumping it up. But where does the water go if there is no leak anywhere? Everything checked - no leaks. We don't know what to do with this pressure...
Hello Svetlana. Let's try to understand this difficult situation. The reasons for the pressure drop in the CO gas boiler can be different, I will start with the simplest:
1. Trite, but it may be that the coolant discharge valve is simply not tightly closed. If this is corrected, then the problem will be solved.
2. Leak in the CO system. You need to carefully check all connections. Also carefully inspect the heat exchanger in the boiler, there may be microcracks in it, which cause this problem.
3. The reason for the constant pressure drop in CO can be air pockets.
4. If none of the points helped in solving the problem, then it is necessary to check the automation of the gas boiler. It is possible that there is a manufacturing defect.
In the latter case, you will have to call a qualified specialist for diagnostic and repair work.
How to ask a question? The boiler does not hold pressure. In a few days, the pressure drops and it stops. What could be. Who to ask? The expander was replaced. Replaced 3 way valve. What else and where can be a leak. The boiler was placed on the bypass. Coolant outlet to the radiator and back. There is no visible coolant leak. The pressure is still slowly falling. From 1.5 to 0.6 and brake. Then what can happen to him, with what node? "Sipicillists" - self-taught who are on call - are advised to replace the boiler. But it works in every other way!
