We had a plumber fit an external filling loop (in retrospect I could have done that myself but he was good value anyway). It works but I may never know where the blockage is.

I know both valves are good.

This is just curiosity now as I'm sure it's not something I can fix but what could be stopping the system taking in water when the entire filling loop including both valves are known to be good?

The filling loop is integrated in the boiler. I have just tried opening the valves either side. However, the end of the loop was only hand tight and I loosened it slightly and water dribbled out so I know that it is getting that far. The HW issues are hot/cold/hot/cold and F24 faults.

I got the link, thanks.

Oh, I wasn't expecting that. Some posts suggested that it was relatively easy.

Hi The pressure on my 828E is showing zero. I've opened the cold water mains and the CH return valves but no water flows in. I know water is reaching the end of the fill loop (braided hose). What could be preventing the system from taking in water? Can low pressure in the CH system...

I should have read the manual first :) Having done that, I'm wondering if removing the diverter valve and pump is really necessary. Is that just to allow better access? Also, I'm seeing conflicting posts about whether the washer and o rings are standard or special. Where can I get them...

Hi After reading various forum posts, it seems likely that my plate heat exchanger is blocked and needs cleaning. I couldn't find any instructions to remove it, is it just a case of pulling the 3 wire clips and undoing the (awkward) nut? Also, is this legal for a DIYer? Thanks in advance...
