Relief Valve dripping and rellieving.
@ March 10, 2010 12:28 PM in Relief Valve dripping and rellieving.
I have a oil fired, forced hot water system with a storage tank as one zone for domestic hot water. The relief vale would let water out most in morning with a slow drip otherwise. First off the fastfill combo and the relief were replaced...to no avail. Next I replaced the expansion tank. This corrected the problem for about two weeks. It started doing the same thing. I replaced the relief valve at this point, hoping maybe it had gotten gummed up in the process. This fixed the problem for about 3 days. Now it has returned. I am wondering if it is a problem related to the storage tank or boiler. Any suggestions to try on either end would be appreciated.
