What to check first
- Locate the external filling loop, which is a silver braided hose connecting your cold mains pipe to your heating pipework.
- Open the valves at both ends of the hose to allow mains water to enter the system until the pressure gauge reads between 1.0 and 1.5 bar.
- Carefully close both valves completely and ensure the hose remains attached but tightly shut.
