The original problem we had was a massive leak from an under floor pipe to our kitchen radiator. (the boiler is in the kitchen). This was fixed and we had heat and hot water for a day then nothing. We had a phoenix engineer out who replaced an air pressure switch? round white thing! this was...

tried hot water and no joy. same as before.

ok all the water is out and have pumped up the other bit. How do i bleed the HE?

yeah i did.

do you keep draining until the water stops or just until it reaches 0?

yes thats it do I just pull off white cap or do i need to attach a hose or something?

thanks for reply. I take it gas should be turned off? Where is the draining point under pump is it the large brass screw where the isolating valve is?

I "accidently" let all the air out of the expansion vessel through the valve at top of boiler.(long story) The problem was the Air pressure switch which has now been replaced C/H worked for about half an hour then cut out cause no air in expansion vessel? Now nothing working.

Thanks for reply Will that drain the water out? It says in the FAQs section to NEVER use PRV to drain water out says to use drain cock that I cannot locate.

Hi I need to repressurise my boiler but I cant find drain cock to drain the system first. I have seen the method in FAQ but the location of drain cock cannot be found. Is there another way of draining system through a radiator for example?? Thanks
