How to re-pressurise my Vailand ThermoCompact boiler

[Petebart]

I've got the above mentioned boiler, inherited in the flat I bought. The manual says that it's either a TurboMax Plus 824.2E, 828/2E or a Thermo Compact 615/2E, 620E, 624/2E, 628/2E.

I believe it's the Thermo Compact because I've looked at Youtube vids for pressurising TurboMax's and it doesn't look the same. However, I can't find any vids for the Thermo Compact but I'll assume it's that one.

The pressure has gone down to a quarter to a half a bar and the hot water isn't heating properly anymore. I've bled the radiators but does anyone know how to get pressure into the boiler please? I can see various srews underneath but unsure which ones do the job!

Driving me a bit nuts so help will be really appreciated!

usually its under the boiler but could be any where.

Thanks for the reply.

There's no pipe like that anywhere near the boiler itself. Anywhere else it might be?

Thanks
