i have recently had my boiler replaired after it was showing error 1.no hw or ch for a full week! but now is working fine but it is leaking hot water, i have been told it is the pressure, when the ch is on pressure gauge goes upto 3 is this normal and how do i release the pressure??
i have called back the engineer you recently fitted the part and he released a load of water from the actual radiators, but this is happeneing every time my heating is on for a while.
any help would greatly be appreciated and save me paying out further to call out an engineer

thank you for your advice brian,this is happeneing every time i switch heating on so how often should i be bleeding excess? i cant get the pressure to stay stable it either drops too low, giving an error or really high!

the pressure will rise about 0.5 bar from cold any more and the filling loop tap may not be fully closed bleed excess from rads down to 1-1.5 bar
