Hissing sound once LR is turned off
After turning off my LR it is hissing for 5-10 minutes. You can hear the sound in the video. Is this normal? Thanks

what pressure is showing on the boiler pressure gauge?
hopefully it goes without saying that it is 120V (240V) inside the casing so please unplug the machine from the power supply before placing hands or tools inside the casing.
kind regards

If you depress the valve stem gently with something like a pencil or wooden spoon so you don’t get a steam burn the valve will open and a jet of steam will shoot out
Do you mean the anti vac valve or the safety valve, which is much taller at about 60mm
Kind regards
