Hello

I need to re pressurize my boiler (Ideal Isar 30) I think I need to turn two
screws, however one of the screws that I thought I needed to turn won't budge, so now I am worried
that it isn't this one at all! I have connected the filling loop and have attached a pic if anyone
could help me with which bits to turn, it would be very much appreciated.

thanks, Fiona

open the left hand side one, then the right hand side one until pressure gauge reads 1-1.2 bar. then turn off both. if you are constantly topping up, you probably have a small leak somewhere
 
Hi

thanks very much, is it the two main screws on the picture that I have to turn?
 
Thank you very much for helping so quickly, should one of them be really hard to move?
 
They can be. Try turning the other way. Don't force it though, nothing good happens from that.
