Losing pressure

Hoping someone can give some advice. I've recently moved into a flat, and after having electric storage heaters for years I had to get to grips with gas central heating for the first time. The boiler is made by "Celtic" but I don't know any other info about it.

My problem is that the central heating pressure drops quite quickly. This happens especially after I've had the central heating on - less so if it's just the hot water. I can get it up again by turning the tap to put pressure back into the system but I'm guessing this isn't the best solution.

If the pressure is at "1" (the gauge runs up to 6) when heating is on, it will drop right back to zero just a few hours after the heating comes off.

What are the likely causes of this? Is it the boiler or something with the radiators?
