Verifiedemianplumbing :
Hi, I have been in the Plumbing & Heating trade for approximately 15 years, lets see if I can help. If you look underneath and you will see two grey knobs, open them both to let more water in, do it slowly and when the pressure is on 1.5 bar turn them both off again and all should be well again.
JACUSTOMER-fi5lnei8- :
Hi, thanks for your reply to my query. Sadly I find that my boiler doesn't have two grey knobs or a pressure meter. So I can't try your solution. Have you any further ideas?

VerifiedHi - lets see if we can get you sorted in the shortest possible time. Do you have a silver flexible pipe under the boiler?
