Air in supply after running out of lpg

NathanSav · 4 Dec 2013

Hi,

I have recently ran out of LPG before the delivery came, now I cant light the boiler or the fire. I have read that it is due to air in the supply, can anyone advise how to remove this.

Thanks

Nathan.

Hi,

Thanks, but I don't know what that is.

Under pressure shut off valve, check your user handbook to see how to do it or see below for an idea.

I don't have the instructions, we have recently moved in.

I can look around see if they are in a cupboard somewhere.

Is it on the boiler or the gas tank as the fire wont light either.

I don't have anything resembling that, I have a see through tube with an orange button inside it, could that be it?

You're going to have to re-light the pilot light..

Nozzle : I keep clicking the switch in, it clicks a few times then the switch pops back out again.

You have to hold it for a few minutes for a thermocouple to heat up, it works as a fail-safe.
