i had a new boiler installed in 2015.
when the pressure relief valve started leaking water, i replaced it with another. the leaked stopped for a day and came back.
thinking i got a faulty valve, i replaced it again with a new one. no leaks for a day and came back.
late in night, when water isn't used much, the valve is going from a leak to a constant flow of water. enough to fill a 5 gallon bucket in 3-4 hours.
the valve is making a loud hissing sound as the water is coming out. the water does stop when i push in the valve stem but shortly opens up again.
at night i have been turning off the hot water pipe feeding into the boiler and turning it back on in the morning as this stops the leak.
at this point, i believe the valve is doing the job and relieving pressure but what is the issue? any plumbers in here
