I have a Combination Boiler (Worcester Bosch 280)
I woke up this morning to it screaming and grinding. I also found a big puddle had leaked from the radiator. I noticed the blank end key was loose which i have now tightened. However I dont know how to get in to the boiler and refill it. The pressure guage is showing 0 bar. How can i refill the boiler?
*PLEASE HELP ASAP AS WE ARE FREEZING AND HAVE NO HOT WATER*
Thank you

Shut boiler down and let it cool.Somewhere(follow the piping) there should be a valve to open.This will allow boiler feed water to enter the boiler.It is possible that the automatic feed is plugged.Trace water piping.If you do not have an automatic feed one should be installed once you are back on line.PDF
