Can U bleed radiators from combi boiler systems?

[PieBird]

Actually, my main problem is that my Ravenheat combi system stopped working yesterday, and the "low CH water pressure" light is on. (Ravenheat boiler is either RSF 20/20E, RSF 25/20E, or RSF 25/25E, with timer, and although more than 8 years old has been working well).

My radiators appeared to need bleeding (when on, they've been cold at top but warm at bottom) so I thought I'd try this first before getting someone in to look at system....but I read on another site that you shouldn't bleed radiators from combi systems. Is this so??

This is my first post, and I'd be really grateful if anyone can help!

Thanks...

Stick to the proper sites then.

You can bleed combi rads. Consult the FAQs.

ahahaha...

Thought it was probably a daft question, but better to look dumb than risk damaging system...!

Cheers Bahco for the prompt reply - much appreciated.
