puma problems

[bm1980]

hi i've got a potterton puma 80E which isnt very well. When the central heating has been on for a few hours then turns off, when i come to use hot water in the morning there is no hot water and the low system pressure led is lit. I have to use the fill loop to refil the sytem. This happens every morning any ideas would help thanks .

hi i had a go a t represurising the pv with a foot pump didnt seem to build up pressure could the diaphram have failed? if i have another go and try for longer could i cause any damage if air is passing into the water side of the vessel?

Follow the FAQ on this site and repressurise it exactly as stated.

There are a number of possibilities. A blocked communication pipe is one of them!
