Hi have a Glow worm swift flow combi boiler and things have not been running smoothly for some time.

Firstly when the heating is on only the bottom of the radiators worm up. Im thinking air block and they all need bleeding.

But now there does not seem to be any hot water. When the heating is turned on iyou can hear it 'kicking in'. Today sometimes this has not happened so i have turned the boiler off and relit pilot light. Also the pressure gauge is virtually on 0. When heating switched on it rises on as far as 0.3 when the instruction say it should be at 0.7 normally.

What seems to be the problem ? And is it a big job for an expert cost and time wise?

Thanks in advance

find the filling loop under the boiler (silver flexi braided pipe with an isolation valve)
and top the system up till gauge reads about 1.5 bar
