[QUOTE="Rob_the_rich, post: 426421, member: 8419"] it does look like a pressure reducing valve. I wouldn't remove it without having your plumber look at it and test the system prior to moving the boiler. Remember that pressure and flow rates are two different things. You seem to have high pressure but low flow. If you remove the valve, a pressure spike could damage the boiler. The liff device is a scale inhibitor, which might be full of scale. Or there could be a partially blocked inlet filter on the boiler. If it is working ok for now, then leave it alone. [/QUOTE]
