What it is

The Baxi 248056 is a 3 bar safety valve supplied by Baxi as a replacement component for its domestic boiler range. It sits on the heating or hot water circuit and opens at its set pressure to discharge water rather than allow the system to over-pressurise. It is a serviceable spare rather than a consumable, so it is normally replaced when the existing valve will no longer hold its seat or seal correctly.

Signs this part needs replacing

  • Water weeping or dripping continuously from the valve outlet or discharge pipe
  • System pressure creeping up and not settling at the normal cold-fill reading
  • The valve failing to reseat after it has lifted, leaving a permanent trickle
  • Scale, sludge or debris visible on the valve seat or spindle
  • Boiler locking out or cutting out on an overheat or pressure-related fault

Before you order

  • Confirm the part number on the existing valve or in the boiler's parts list matches BAXI248056
  • Check the boiler model and, where available, the GC number on the data badge before ordering
  • Inspect the valve seating face and any sealing washer on removal, as these are often disturbed during replacement
