10.4 Testing System Pressure
The system pressure should be 12 to 30 psi for a closed
system.
z
Check system pressure.
z
When the pressure gauge shows less than 15 psi,
the pressure is too low. Add fill water as described in
Î
Chapter 8.1, page 39 and check system pressure
once again.
10.5 Testing Relief Valve
Check the functioning of the relief valve every 1 to 3
years as required per local code.
z
Make sure nobody is near the discharge of the relief
valve.
z
Lift up on the relief valve.
The relief valve must open and discharge water. If the
valve does not discharge, replace the valve and re-
check. If the defective valve is not replaced, it can lead
to damage to certain system components due to exces-
sive high pressures.

CAUTION!
SYSTEM DAMAGE
due to frequent make up water.
When you frequently add make up water
to the system, this can lead to corrosion
and lime build-up in the system.
z
Make sure that the heating system is
equipped with automatic air elimina-
tion.
z
Verify that the system has no leaks
and check the expansion tank for
proper operation.
