What to check first

  1. Locate the external filling loop, which is a flexible braided hose usually found underneath the boiler.
  2. Open the small valve or tap attached to the hose slowly until you hear water entering the system.
  3. Watch the pressure gauge on the front of the boiler until the needle reaches the green zone, typically between 1.0 and 1.5 bar.
  4. Close the valve or tap tightly and ensure no water is dripping from the hose.

Parts commonly replaced
