3. SySTEM WATER PRESSURE
The system pressure gauge (G - see page 4) indicates the central heating system pressure.
If the pressure is seen to fall below the original installation pressure of 1-2 bar over a period
of time and continue to fall then a water leak may be indicated. In this event re-pressurise the
system as shown below. If unable to do so or if the pressure continues to drop a Gas Safe
Registered Engineer or in IE a Registered Gas Installer (RGII) should be consulted.
THE BOILER WILL NOT OPERATE If THE PREssuRE HAs REduCEd TO LEss THAN 0.3 BAR uNdER THIs CONdITION.
