pressure gauge

Hi, I have a Worcester 532/i, and for a while, some of the upstairs radiators aren't getting hot all the way to the top. But when I try to bleed them, not much air comes out and no sign of water at all. So, I figured that maybe it needed repressurising. I'd never really looked at the gauge...

So I have been at my elderly grandparents over Christmas and noticed that the analogue pressure gauge under the boiler was noticeably swinging around a bit in the 1.5-2.0 Bar region whilst was the boiler was on. Is this normal or does it indicate a underlying issue? I read somewhere online...

Combi Boiler is Worcester Bosch Green star 30i about 5 years old, serviced 12 months ago. I noticed the pressure gauge on boiler was almost completely obscured with condensation. Only noticed yesterday (yesterday) I have been putting the heating constantly through the day on this past week as...

Hi I have a Vaillant Ecotec combi boiler. My magnetic filter is leaking and I’m waiting on a new seal to arrive in next few days. I’ve removed the filter and switched off valves at the filter pipework and beneath the boiler on the flow and return pipes. I’m hoping to continue using HW as...

Hi, I am renting an apartment and the boiler has been sat on 0 for some time. We have had no issues with water pressure or hot water. For some reason the shower does not seem as hot as it used to be and its no where near as hot as sink tap etc BUT I think this might be another issue. I have...

So I just had the heating system drained by a plumber to replace a UFH mixer valve, he filled it back up and left in a hurry. I ran the heating to see if it worked OK and noticed all the radiators upstairs were only half full. I turned the heating off and bled them. I tried running the heating...

Hi all My tenant has a Worcester Greenstar 15ri pressure gauge that isn't heating well (was serviced not long ago) and the symptoms sounded a little like low pressure. However, there's no pressure gauge on the unit itself nor an obvious water pressure valve / key. I found some online manuals...

Hi my boiler lost pressure due to a leaking radiator. Does anyone know how I can repressurise please ? I don't have the manual from when I moved in. I have identified the loop but there is only 1 valve that I can turn. Any guidance would be appreciated it. Complete novice here !

Hi, I have recently moved into a new build apartment block (the building was completed in 2018). I live on a fifth floor and the water pressure here is pretty bad. The block has a communal central boiler and all apartments have water pressure valves/gauges on the main cold water pipe marked as...

Hi, I'm looking for help advice please. The boiler pressure gauge was at zero, I tried re-filling/pressuring the system using the filling loop, but water started coming out the expansion vessel straight away. The vessel inner bag had burst! Replaced expansion vessel which was already set to 1...

Hello my heating isn’t working having spent many hours searching online I think I may have a problem with the pressure. I know it should be between 1 & 1.5 but I can’t see the gauge. I’ve read my manual but I can’t see one can’t anyone help I have an ideal classic slimline

Hi all, First time post so sorry for any issues. Just moved into a new flat in London, top floor Victorian conversion. Two bed. Came with a Ariston Microgenus 23 MFFI Combi boiler. Couple of issues we’re having & unfortunately it’s the version without fault lights. Just so you know Hot Water &...

I have a boiler (Worchester Greenstar Danesmoor System Utility 18/25) which is plumbed to a large Akvaterm cyclinder. When the system is cold, the pressure gauge on the expansion vessel reads 0.75 bar. When the system has been running for a while the vessel gauge reads anywhere between 1.5 bar...

Hi, We moved into our house a year ago, and have noticed the pressure gauge isn't working on our Sime 100c Format boiler. Is this a job I could do myself (not much experience) or would it need a plumber? Or could it just be a loose wire? Thanks for any help.

Hi everyone, I need some advice on my boiler (Baxi Main Eco Elite) When the boiler is running the central heating, the boiler pressure gauge slowly drops about 0.5 bar of pressure. When the central heating turns off using the timer, it bounces back up 0.5 bar...Is this normal? There are no...

Hi all, my wife and I just moved into a house with an alpha cds20s boiler. Pressure is low so I want to top it up. As I understand I need the use of a filling loop which should be connected, however I cannot work out where it is. I believe I don't have one but any advice is most appreciated...

Thermostatic bath mixer has started throwing out luke warm water on the hottest setting, I've been told its a pressure issue so I'm going to try and install a PRV on the cold water feed. Can anyone advise me on a suitable location to install the PRV? Next to the boiler where the cold feed...

Hi All, I just moved in to a new house and have a question. Heating and DHW are fed by Worcester bosch CDI30 setup within S-plan (2 motorised valves, indirect cylinder etc) and also expansion tank + feeding tank. Question is - as this is a non pressurised system - should I be concerned with...

Hello, When we turned the heating on for the cold season, the pressure gauge on the boiler has started to fluctuate wildly. The pressure when the boiler is idle seems to be falling rather quickly. Sometimes it has been down to 0.1 bar, but when the room heating starts it goes up significantly...
