Repressurising Baxi 35/60 Boiler

[JJSearson]

Sorry if this has been covered, but...

Our Baxi 35/60 boiler shows a pressure of 0. Is it possible to repressurise this without calling out a plumber? We can't get one for a few days and the heat is off. I'd be grateful for any advice/directions

Thanks

quite possible. identify the filling loop, turn on the small tap to allow water into the system, slowly, until the pressure rises to about 1 bar. close the tap. job done

thanks, but that doesn't work, it looks as though i need an external connector to pressurise but the blank cap on second inlet is set so i'm unsure where to connect the external loop. Thanks all the same

is there a cap on that you can take off ? and then connect the filling loop

 

[JJSearson]

there is, but i amn't 100% sure that it is the right one. There are two valves to open, one is bnaked so an external loop cannot be added. In between the two valves is another gold cap, but ic annot see the pipe work that leads to it so not 100% sure if it is the right one and i am sared of just making the situation worse. I tried looking for the service and installation guide for Baxi 35/60 but no luck

if there a filling loop somewhere else on the system.

we had the valves on earlier, that's what we're not sure of, if there's another filling loop somewhere else, thanks a million for all your help

them valves are the flow and return LOL

 

[JJSearson]

i know, they were on. So i don't know what to do now, or am i missing somethign ridiculously obvious

thanks for your help, much appreciated,

in the picture the flow and return are turned off.
there should be a filling point somewhere else.

lol that is what is confusing me, where the filling point is? The valves are off in the picture, but they weren't before, which is how they should be right? So when i have both valves on the pressure is still zero, and thats what i'm trying to find out, how to repressurise the system, but i can't find the filling point, or would even know what to do then to be honest
