If your bladder is damage in any way, your boiler will run but you will have other problems.

If your expansion tank is not working, you will be seeing water leaking out of the Pressure Relief Valve when pressure gets around 30psi (most residential boilers). The water may stop dripping when the boiler reaches its highest temperature, but once the boiler starts cooling down, water will start contracting causing low pressure. This will cause the automatic fill valve to let water back into the boiler thus making the water drip out the relief valve again when it heats up.

DO NOT shut off the water inlet valve. This could cause high damage or seriously injury if you run out of water.

You should replace the tank and also the relief valve to be safe. Call a licenced plumber.

What causes bladder pressure pain?

* There are a number of things that can cause this. You may have a bladder infection, and constipation can even cause the pain due to excess pressure on the bladder. * Also, there is a condition called "Interstitial Cystitis" (IC) that can cause severe bladder and pelvic pain. IC affects mainly women, and while it is not fatal or contagious, there is no cure for it. But there are very effective treatments for it, though. Basically, this condition means there are spaces or gaps (interstices) in the lining of the bladder, which become inflamed and painful.

Can being constipated make you feel like you have to pee a lot cause of the pressure?

Yes, being constipated can create pressure in the lower abdomen, which may lead to a sensation of needing to urinate frequently. The buildup of stool in the rectum can push against the bladder, mimicking the feeling of a full bladder. This pressure can confuse the body's signals, making it feel like you have to pee even if your bladder isn't full. It's essential to address constipation to alleviate this discomfort.

Can a faulty check valve cause my well pump to turn on frequently even though no water is running?

Yes. The well pump turns on when the pressure in the accumulator tank falls to a low enough pressure to actuate the switch. If the pump check valve is leaking, the pressure is being bled back through the pump until the switch trips and the pump turns on. Other leaks in the system that allow the pressure to bleed down can also cause this.

Can you use a pressure cooker if it leaks steam?

If a pressure cooker is leaking steam, it is not safe to use. A steam leak often indicates a faulty seal or a problem with the pressure release valve, which can prevent the cooker from maintaining the proper pressure needed for safe cooking. Continuing to use a leaking pressure cooker could lead to uneven cooking or even accidents. It’s best to inspect and repair the cooker or replace any damaged parts before using it again.
