: For valve see thread on "water filter and other stuff" for vent see the water in vent one, both just below. Your valve is supposed to hold when the air vent shuts. Drop your pressure to the minimum. You shouldn't have enough to push out of anything hardly.
I don't think I understand your last sentance. So where is the site for "water filter and other stuff"? Where on the boiler to turn pressure down.
I think the pressure is fine, the water level bounces between half-way and three quarters in the tube when the boiler is running. This boiler also
needs to heat 3 more floors above me.
I am wondering how the water keeps building up. I drain it each time the heat comes on, then the air vent works for a little while-then water.
