My recently installed boiler is showing a new high today of 7psi. So far as I understand it from reading through previous postings in this forum, this is much too high

Could someone look at the pressuretrol settings here and comment on the following 2 questions. The unit is at about 500 ft above sea level.

1. Should the current settings allow for 5psi max with 3.5 psi expected minimum operating range?

2. Should the pressuretrol be responsible for monitoring the pressure and shutting down the unit once 5psi is detected with the current setting?
