Alpha he cb25, flashing lights, repressurised

Wonderland · Apr 18, 2016

Yesterday I bled the radiators for the first time in the flat that I bought last year. Today my boiler was displaying red and Amber flashing lights which, when I checked online, meant that the system had depressurised. I have then used the filling loop to re-pressurise the system and have got the needle back to within the green zone on the display (it's at roughly one bar). The flashing lights will not stop though and I am not able to use my boiler. Has anyone got any advice please? I've looked at manuals online but can't find anything helpful

Reset it. Turn it off then on. Put the pressure slightly higher. Then into realms of a gsr engineer.

Think alphas need resetting after a fault. This is done by turning one of the dails on the front all the way to the left.

I'll try the reset. I did it briefly earlier but it didn't seem to affect it. Fingers crossed

Or as simon above says take the pressure higher to the top of the green zone.

It's working! Thanks for your help and suggestions. I think it just needed a little while to sort itself out after adjusting the pressure. I've got hot water and the radiators are on!
