Filling the heating system and
checking for leaks
Before commissioning the heating system, check for
leaks to prevent problems during operation. Pressurise
the heating system to 1.3x bar permissible operating
pressure (observe the safety pressure of the safety
valve).
On sealed systems the pressure gauge needle (Fig. 6,
item 2
) must be within the green range (Fig. 6,
item 3
).
Set the red needle (Fig. 6,
item 1
) on the pressure
gauge to the required system pressure.

Shut off the pressure expansion vessel from the
system by closing the cap valve.
z
Check the connections and pipework for leaks.
z
Open the mixing and shut-off valves on the hot water
(primary) side.
z
Fill the system via an approved filling link.
Filling the heating system
Filling and refilling of the heating circuit must been
carried out by a method that has been approved by the
Water Regulation Advisory Scheme (WRAS), for the
type of heating appliances, i.e. Domestic (in-house)
Fluid Category 3. Non-Domestic (other than in-house)
Fluid Category 4. Depending on the Fluid Category the
approved method should comprise of the following:

Control valve (stop valve) including a double check
valve on the mains cold water supply pipe
z
Temporary connection to e removed after filling
(filling loop)

CAUTION!
SYSTEM DAMAGE
through over pressure during leak testing.
Pressure, control and safety equipment
may be damaged through excessive
pressure.
z
When you carry out a leak test, make
sure that no pressure, control or safety
equipment is fitted which cannot be
isolated from the boiler water chamber.
