What to check first

  1. Check your pressure gauge; if it is below 1 bar, top up your boiler using the filling loop until it hits 1.5 bar.
  2. Turn off the power to the boiler for 30 seconds to perform a hard reset.
  3. Check if any radiators are cold at the bottom, which may indicate trapped air needing a bleed.
