OK, so I replaced the pressure release valve and maybe I broke the
pump in the process. I have a Lochinvar hot water boiler with a B&G
pump heating radiators.


Initially water was leaking out of the pressure release valve.
Sometimes a little, sometimes a lot. I drained the system and replaced
the pressure release valve(PRV). Then I replaced the spicket tht
drained the system because it was leaking too. I started up the system
and it worked fine till a blast of hot water came out of the new
pressure release valve. *I turned on the system later and everything
started shaking. Now when I turn on the system the boiler comes on and
the pump comes on, but the pump does not seem to be circulating. Does
anyone have any ideas what I have done and what I can do to fix it?- Hide quoted text -

A Troll, system starts shakin!!! Or fill to 10lb , bleed radiators
and wait to see what hot lb it reaches, by the way I know nothing
about boilers im a HO , If it shakes it bakes and breaks , easy-bake-
oven , or it then blows, have fun.
