"It should have a safety release valve to automatically release pressure "
Any idea where? It's dropped now turned the heating off which is what I said maybe it's just high when it's on. -x- |

How did it get so high? Normally they only go higher if you have let water in to raise the pressure. Did you do that and let too much in? On a previous similar thread it said not to release pressure through the release valve. Try doing a forum search for boilers and that thread is there somewhere.
If your pressure has gone up all by itself then that suggests a system problem. On my Worcester boiler the pressure goes down when the heating is on and up when it's off. I recommend contacting a qualified gas engineer. Boilers are dangerous things not to be messed with x |

"You can bleed one of your radiator to release the pressure back down to recommended levels (the gauge on your boiler probably has green markings at about 0.5-1.5 bar)"
This is true as I have done it few days ago and pressure dropped |
