Open the pop off valve on the top and see if air releases.

If this does not work may need to replace water heater. This is very dangerous and can explode if the pressure builds to high!!!

Do you have to fill a hot water heat boiler?

There has to be water in either system for it to work, check with the manufacturer and provided documentation to discern proper water capacity.A hot water boiler (hydronics) as opposed to steam is a system that is filled with water and has an automatic feeder to make sure the boiler never dry firesA steam (vapor) system has a limited amount of water so it has space to make steam and can have a manual feeder BUT like a hydronic system much have a low water cut off to prevent dry firing


How does a back boiler work scientifically?

A boiler works by heating water in an enclosed space. The expansion of water molecules as it transforms from a liquid state into a gaseous one causes the boiler to generate a vast amount of pressure. This is generally the science behind a back boiler.

Can you incorporate a solid fuel back boiler into a pressure water system it would be nice not to have to use so much oil and take advatage of our wood burning stove?

Yes, If it is a pressurized system, the water from the back boiler and your oil or gas fired boiler can be mixed. This can also be achieved by using a water to water plate exchanger to preheat the return water from your heating devices. If you have a forced air heating system in the house, a coil can be placed in the main trunk line of the duct work and heated by circulated water from the back boiler.


How does a water pot boiler work to heat water efficiently?

A water pot boiler works by heating water in a closed container using a heat source such as a stove or electric element. The heat causes the water to boil and turn into steam, which then rises and transfers heat to the surrounding water. This process efficiently heats the water in the pot.
