Help I have a boxer boiler. After bleeding my radiators, everytime i put the heating on the pressure rises to 3 and I quickly turn them off. If the heating is off the water pressure drops over night so no hot water. Now I have discovered 3 of my radiators are leaking also. WHat would have caused this. I cant afford a plumber! Can i fix it myself?

hi your pressure should be between 1-1.5 bar when you have filled the radiators, firstly tighten the nuts on ur radiators where they were leaking check discharge pipe on the outside wall behind boiler for signs of water leakage. also ur filling loop can be faulty so its filling the system.
