Hi
Our gas boiler after it starts up and is running for a bit (10min) has started to blow water/steam out of the safety valve. It makes a loud grating noise ( like a train on a track) and then the safety valve pops and the water releases. This is now a regular occurance with the system.
I had the Pottertan service man come and look at it but he said he didnt know what was wrong with it.
Its about 6 yrs old and was regulary maintained.
Does this mean theres something seriously wrong with it.. the radiators work fine and there are no air locks in the central heating so far.
any ideas would be gratefull.
thanks
