What to check first
- Locate a radiator in your home, preferably one upstairs or near the boiler.
- Using a radiator bleed key, slightly open the bleed valve to release a small amount of water into a container.
- Monitor the pressure gauge on the front of the boiler until the needle drops back into the green zone, usually between 1.0 and 1.5 bar.
