chaffoteaux and potterton celtic rsc - pressure?

The pressure on the above has fallen to almost zero - how do I repressurize?

Thanks

Find your leak !

It could be the pressure relief valve not sseated correctly or a leak anywhere else

Every time you refill with water, you are diluting the inhibitor in the system and increasing the amount of lime scale

You don't remove excess through radiators, you use the pressure relief valve, although you will prolly have to bleed the radiators to get rid of any air which has got into them

That's great, sorted now. Many thanks.

You need to find the 'filling loop' - thats the flexible pipe on the side or the back that connects your boiler to the mains water. There will be some sort of tap in this pipe, and you open it slightly until your boiler registers the same pressure as before. If you overdo it don't worry - you can remove any excess through the radiator bleed valves.
