Hi
I've just moved into a rented house and my swish looking combi boiler doesnt seem to want to heat my house.
Hot water isnt an issue but I cant seem to get the radiators working.
I had a similar issue with an old combi in another house I rented, and to solve it I needed to open a valve somewhere which raised the pressure.
So I checked the pressure read out on the Performa and low and behold its down on zero.
Theres a sticker near it that states optimum operation between 1 and 3 and if its under .5 and over 3.5 to call an engineer.
I'm presuming all i need to do is raise the pressure bar but after searching on the net I've not found any instructions that show me how to do this.
As I said on my other boiler it was a matter of simply turning a handle (I presume to let some water in or something) and the pressure bar rose.
Thanks for any help you can offer, I really am rubbish with these kinds of things.

EDIT:
I have had a look through the stickies and cant seem anything that leaps out to me for my problem.
It all seems to be about proper boilers and sealed systems and radiator flushing things that seem a little different to what I'm expecting to be told.
Thanks again for any help
