I moved into a house with an already installed boiler. I am trying to re- pressurise it and have followed Worcester instructions, however I have no idea how the boiler has been plumbed.
There seems to be a pump/ filter coming off the main cold water pipe. So when I turn the silver pipe valves to on, I can see water dripping from the valve( so pipe seems to be filling with water) but can't seem to get the water pressure of the boiler to increase.

Unsure where it's just a matter of patience and waiting for the boiler pressure to rise or if I am genuinely not turning the correct valve.

Not sure what to do, any advice is much appreciated.

The vertical valve is an isolation + double check valve, both the slot and handle need to be opened and turned to the vertical.
