VerifiedHi I am Rick, UK Plumber, and I specialize on Boiler problems, if you have no pressure you need to top it up if you have a filling loop connect it and turn both taps on, I guess you have a Worcester boiler it may have a fitted filling point with a key this key will be clipped to the bottom tray of the boiler, Rick
