New system do I need to prime?

[robbie77]

Hello,

Having just finished with a new plumbing configuration that involved moving both hot and cold water tanks and adding three zone valves I
am now ready to test the system. The zone valves have been but to manual and are not wired yet.

Is there any particular order I need to do thigs to test the heating and hot water.
I have filled the system with water and the tanks are full. I ran the boiler(Green star utility oil condensing boiler) and pump for 10 mins (now fully pumped) and found the pump got quite warm as did the
pipes near it so I think the valves are open OK but thought I should check what order to do things or shall I just runt he boiler and pump.
I do have a manual air vent on Hot water tank.

Thanks

I am assuming I can just run the system now and pressure test it. Just wanted to make sure I am not going about it the right way?
