My boiler is a Ravenheat CSi85A (T)
Installed about 9 years ago. Never had any issues with it until recently.
Noticed water outside coming from the over pressure vent pipe. looked like water had been coming out for a while. checked filling loop valve on cold water side and it did seem to be passing water continually (whatever position valve was in). So fitted an isolation valve between the CW and the one way valve on the heating loop.
The pressure on the gauge climbs from 0.5bar to 4 and results in the heating water being vented. I was told by someone that there could be leakage between the hot water circuit and the heating loop (failed matrix) I turned the cold water off and opened the hot tap - the gauge did go up slightly.
Just ran heating with cold water turned OFF at boiler and pressure climbed from 0.5 to 2.5 bar in 10 mins. I turned it off.
Any ideas chaps (and chapesses)
