I have a customer who I observed myself after one turns boiler. in about 3 minutes i hear popping sounds that the water is flashing to steam and caused the prv to dump water consecutively. Its a new PrV and Expansion tank.. It happens really fast starting from cold start... but not all the time. I rebled all zones and had all zones working fine the last time i worked on it and shut boiler down with boiler switch. The Boiler is a Federal Boiler and It has a square box like air scoop. any ideas what the problem can be. here are some pics
thanks
Joe
