why is pressure rising to 2.2 bar while heating is on ?

pressure rises to 2.2 bar after heating has been running for an hour. when heating switched off pressure stays up. have to drain water off to reduce to 1 bar. repeats every time heating is on. heating and hot water otherwise appear to be working normally
