I am fitting a new pressure release valve to my Worcester 24i after pressure and overflow problems. Is this a very complicated process and are there any technical problems during the replacement ?

From Barry - Many Thanks Gary - in reply to your question - the overflow pipe released a continuous small amount of water which necessitated water pressure top ups regularly. I have tested the valve and it presently seems okay - maybe it has reseated itself - but I have obtained a new one ready for installation when necessary. Many thanks for your advice I am searching the web for a diagram & instructions on the actual replacement procedure.

If I am correct the 24i is one of the easier ones to change, you only have one nut on the outlet and the inlet to the prv is a push fit with a rubber seal and wire clip.
Has the reason for the prv letting bye been resolved?
