I have a single pipe steam radiator system with 9 radiators, 6 on the 1st floor and 3 on the 2nd floor. I've been having problems with water hammer and water coming out of my air vents on the radiators. From reading here, I may have an excessive pressure problem. Can I adjust the pressure myself or is this work best done by a professional? What tools/gauges do I need to adjust or check the pressure?

Thank you!
