How to adjust the pressure of a wall-hung boiler

Wall-hung boilers are common heating equipment in modern homes, and their pressure regulation is a key link to ensure normal operation. Recently, discussions about pressure adjustment of wall-mounted boilers have been hot in major decoration forums and home appliance communities. Many users have reported that improper operation has resulted in poor heating effects or equipment failure. This article will give you a detailed introduction to the methods and precautions for pressure adjustment of wall-hung boilers based on hot topics and frequently asked questions from users in the past 10 days.

1. The importance of pressure adjustment of wall-hung boilers

How to adjust the pressure of a wall-hung boiler

The water pressure of the wall-hung boiler directly affects the stability and safety of the heating system. Too low pressure may result in insufficient heating, and too high pressure may cause safety hazards. The following are common problems that may result from abnormal pressure in wall-hung boilers:

stress statePossible problems
Pressure is too low (<0.8bar)Poor heating effect, frequent starts and stops of equipment, and error codes
Pressure is too high (>2.5bar)Safety valve leaks water, pipeline pressure is too high, and equipment life is shortened

2. Standard pressure range of wall-hung boilers

The pressure standards of wall-hung boilers of different brands vary slightly, but generally follow the following range:

working statusIdeal pressure value (bar)
cold static pressure1.0-1.5
operating pressure1.2-2.0

Note: Please refer to the equipment manual for specific values. Some brands such as Vaillant, Bosch, etc. may have special requirements.

3. Detailed explanation of the pressure adjustment steps of the wall-hung boiler

1.Check current pressure value: Observe the boiler pressure gauge (usually located on the bottom panel) to confirm whether the pressure is within the normal range.

2.Water replenishment operation (when the pressure is too low):

stepsOperating Instructions
① Turn off the power of the wall-hung boilerMake sure the device is down
② Find the water replenishment valveUsually black knobs marked with "+" and "-" symbols
③ Turn the water replenishing valve counterclockwiseStart hydrating after hearing the sound of water flowing
④ Observe the pressure gaugeWhen it reaches about 1.2bar, close the valve immediately.

3.Pressure relief operation (when the pressure is too high):

methodOperational points
Via radiator bleeder valveUse a screwdriver to slowly loosen the exhaust valve and collect the drained water in the water container.
Use safety valve to drain waterProfessionals are required to operate to avoid the risk of burns

4. Frequently Asked Questions about Pressure Adjustment (Recent Frequent Questions)

questionsolution
Pressure continues to drop after rehydrationCheck the system for water leaks, focusing on pipe connections and radiators
Pressure gauge pointer does not moveThe pressure gauge may be faulty and you need to contact after-sales service for maintenance.
The refill valve cannot be fully closedThe valve sealing ring may be aging and parts need to be replaced.

5. Professional suggestions and precautions

1.seasonal adjustment: The pressure should be checked before the heating season. During the non-use season, it is recommended to maintain a pressure of about 1 bar to prevent system oxidation.

2.Safety warning:

  • Do not use hot water when replenishing water
  • If the pressure exceeds 3 bar, it must be stopped immediately and reported for repair.
  • Should be comprehensively inspected by professionals once a year

3.Brand difference reference:

brandSpecial considerations
PowerSome models need to press and hold the "reset" button to activate the hydration function.
RinnaiElectronic pressure display requires conversion (1MPa=10bar)

Through the above structured guidance, users can complete the pressure adjustment of the wall-hung boiler more safely and accurately. If you encounter complex situations or multiple adjustments are ineffective, it is recommended to contact the brand’s after-sales service in time to avoid equipment damage caused by improper operation.
