FAQs

What is the purpose of a bypass valve?

A bypass valve allows water to circulate through the boiler when some or all radiator circuits are closed, preventing the boiler from cycling on and off excessively.

Where should the bypass valve be installed?

The bypass valve is typically installed between the flow and return pipes, near the boiler.

Can I install the bypass valve myself?

While the installation itself might seem straightforward, it is recommended to have a qualified heating engineer install the valve to ensure proper function and safety.

What size pipework does this valve support?

The Altecnic Eres valve supports 22mm pipework.

What should I do if the valve is leaking?

Turn off the heating system immediately and contact a qualified heating engineer to inspect and repair the leak.

Does this valve require any special maintenance?

Regular inspection for leaks and proper function is recommended. Otherwise, no special maintenance is required.

Troubleshooting

Boiler cycling frequently.

Check the bypass valve setting and ensure it is functioning correctly. Consult a heating engineer to adjust the setting if necessary.

Radiators not heating up properly.

Check for airlocks in the system. Bleed the radiators to remove trapped air. Ensure the bypass valve is not excessively restricting flow.
