My unvented domestic heating and hot water system incorporates a RWC CWIC 2000 3/4.5 bar pressure control which recently has begun to overflow periodically outside the house.
The system is only 3 years old.
I am not fully sure of the 5 RWC connections but the two regulated outlets feed the central heat system via a “Zilio” white expansion tank and then the balance pipe, and the direct feed to the Gledhill mains pressure hot water cylinder.
I have needed to top up the pressurized heat system about 2-3 times a year via the balance pipe. I never top up above 1.4 bar.
The unreg output is easy to identify but which of the two regulated outputs is 3 bar and which is 4.5 bar?
I have needed to top up the pressurized heat system about 2-3 times a year via the balance pipe. I never top up above 1.4 bar.
Is the overflow caused just by the mains supply variation, or could the safety valve be too weak, or some other problem?
