FILL (flashing)

Your boiler has lost water pressure and needs to be topped up to function correctly again.

Medium DIY-safe £0-£150

What to check first

  1. Locate the external filling loop, which is a silver braided hose connecting two pipes near your boiler.
  2. Open the valves at both ends of the hose to let water into the system until the pressure gauge reads between 1.0 and 1.5 bar.
  3. Close both valves tightly and remove the hose if it is not a permanent fixture.

FILL

Your boiler has lost enough internal water pressure that it cannot operate at full capacity, so you need to top it up to restore normal heating and hot water.

Medium DIY-safe

What to check first

  1. Locate the filling loop (usually two silver valves connected by a braided metal hose) underneath the boiler.
  2. Open the valves slowly to allow water into the system until the pressure gauge reads between 1.0 and 1.5 bar.
  3. Close both valves tightly to prevent over-pressurisation and check for any minor leaks.

Parts commonly replaced

  • Filling loop
  • Pressure relief valve (if leaking)
HIGH

Your boiler has detected too much water pressure in the system, which can put unnecessary strain on your pipes and internal components.

High DIY-safe

What to check first

  1. Locate a radiator in your home, preferably one upstairs.
  2. Place a small container and cloth underneath the radiator bleed valve.
  3. Use a radiator key to slowly open the valve until water drips out, then close it once the pressure gauge on the boiler drops to between 1.0 and 1.5 bar.

Parts commonly replaced

  • Pressure relief valve
  • Pressure gauge
