Understanding and Managing Your Boiler Pressure – Expert Tips from Heywood Heating
Boiler pressure is a key indicator of your heating system’s health. Maintaining the correct pressure is essential for the efficiency and longevity of your boiler. At Heywood Heating in West London, we offer professional guidance and services to ensure your boiler operates at its best.
What is Boiler Pressure?
Boiler pressure refers to the balance of water and air within your central heating system. Optimal pressure is crucial for the system’s ability to distribute heat efficiently throughout your home.
- Ideal Pressure Range: Typically, the ideal pressure range is between 1-1.5 bar when the system is cold.
Signs of Incorrect Boiler Pressure
- Too High: Pressure above 2.5 bar could indicate an overfilled system or a fault.
- Too Low: Pressure below 1 bar suggests a leak or a need for repressurizing.
