Dear Paul It seems to look like you need top up expansion vessel or PRV needs replacement. We always recomend to post a job on main website because some of a job needs to be seen before any advice is given. Our service is free of charge with no obligation quote and our tradesmans are happy to help with every aspects of jobs. I would strongly recomend to post a job on Rated People home page then 3 companies will get in touch then you would be able to choose the right person as you would receive an e mail with a link to tradesman account where you would see a pictures and you will read revious from previous customers. I hope this will help Best regards Rafal

Hi, You need to check the temperature and pressure are ok and if so then you need to replace the temp/pressure relief valve. Thanks, Vinny
