Possible Causes
Improper system filling, Faulty automatic air vent, High points without vents, Microbubbles in Dettson heat exchanger
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Allow the system to cool before bleeding air.
- Check automatic air vent: Locate the air vent on or near the Dettson boiler. Ensure the cap is slightly open (per manual) to allow air to escape and that it is not leaking water.
- Bleed system: Bleed radiators and high points to remove trapped air.
- Verify fill pressure: Ensure system pressure is adequate to reach the highest point in the system.
- Replace faulty vent: If the automatic air vent is clogged or leaking, have it replaced.
