The pressure on this had dropped slightly anyway (to just under 1.0 bar), and after the summer we used the system with no problems. However today we bled the radiators and the pressure dropped to < 0.7 bar, red light came on and boiler cut out.
However, it should be as simple as turning the blue knob (instructions stuck to front of boiler!) and this will let water from the mains supply into the CH circuit and bring the pressure up again. Nothing happens. Does this indicate the valve/filling loop is screwed?
Has anyone else had this issue or know of a resolution? The filling loop itself seems to cost only £14 while a call out is looking significantly more expensive - I'll probably call someone tomorrow either way (no hot water ) but it would be great if I was just missing something really obvious
