Hi,
I have just bought a new house and, let me say, am very poor at DIY, but I am trying to learn.
For simplicity, I have taken 4 photos of my gas heating set up and posted them on a kodak share site. This will hopefully make it easier for people to see what I mean.
My gas comes from calorgas.
The gas heating has a pipe from which excess water flows if the pressure is to high. this pipe is steadily flowing water when the heat is on and the pressure seems to generally be at about 3 when the gas is on. I have tried to readjust the gas pressure but am not sure how to do this, and the changes i make seem to have no affect.
the first photo shows the gas boiler (i think thats what its called). there is an on-off-reset switch, then another switch, then a dial which here shows the level at about 1.5.
the next photo shows another dial which also has a reading of 1.5. On this dial is a knob - i have labbelled A - and a screw - which i have labelled B. I know this controls the pressure but I can not seem to make any change to the system. I tried turning the screw to the '-' and '+' position but no joy. How is this supposed to control the pressure?
The third photo shows the control panel where i turn on the heating. Are you supposed to have the heating on or off when you are changing the gas pressure.
Is there something you are syupposed to do like turn the switch in photo1 to reset and then change the pressure in photo2.
Any help or clarification on how all this works would be greatly appreciated.
The 4th photo is a manual override switch - i do not know what this does.
Any help greatly appreciated.
