Baxi Combi 80eco - please help

[STREET TRIPLE]

Hi All
Please help - just moved into a new home. Previous owner has had a Baxi Combi 80eco installed.

When we can to check when the heating was going to come on in the morning we noticed that the pressure bar is almost ZERO.

I can't find any way to add water to the system all the taps under the boiler seem to do nothing.

Any advice from anyone please as it is pretty cold at the moment

Thanks

Lee

look for twp valves under tke boiler on the pipework

then look for the silver braided hose that connects them

also might have the loop built in look underneath

Hi Kev
Thanks for the quick reply. Had most of the kitchen out looking for a "tap" to fill the system with.

Underneath the boiler there is (from left to right) a valve with a black tap, valve with "castleated" nut, two valves side by side each with black taps. There is no other pipe work with a valve/tap no flexi hose etc.

I honestly don't know how to fill the thing up.

In the mean while (until the vendor can remember the details of the plumber who installed) what will be the effect of running with really low pressure?

Thanking you in anticipation

Lee

buy a filling loop, connect between the 2, and open them up until it reaches just above 1 bar...
