1) Breach of the water by-laws. It is to stop the black water in the central heating system getting back into and contaminating the mains system which supplies your drinking water.
2) Sometimes the valve does not turn fully off( and mains water will keep driving up the pressure in the boiler until the pressure valve blows off), this will only be apparent if the loop is disconnected.
