    The F (22) problem with the boiler in cold freezing February fixed by a generous man who bothered to upload a video about it. Thank you so much, bless you 🙏

    Thank you so much for this video. My boiler acted up and this video solved the issue in just a few minutes. Saved me tons of worry, not to mention a possible (expensive) visit from a plumber.. on a friday afternoon. Much appreciated, Tony.

    Very simply explained and helpful. I literally found this video within 1 minute of facing the f.22 error issue and my boiler was back up and running within the next 3mins. Thanks so much for the knowledge share, this has saved us at least £50 in a plumber call out charge.
    Bless you 🙏 ♥️

    Thank you. I use your video as a reminder when the pressure drops!
    Happened today, and as I live alone, and I'm an 'oldie,' I always worry. I normally remember what I have to do, but it's always good to check.
    However, although I did get my hot water up and running, the valve on the right, which I usually turn on first, hardly moved at all. I am the only person who fixes my boiler, and I don't really have the strength to turn it off that tight! Anyway, I opened the other valve easily, and heard the water gush in, and saw the pressure going up. Turned the tap on, and there was hot water. Miracle! Obviously turned the left hand valve off, but the other valve, there was hardly any movement. I hope you get to see this comment, and will kindly answer. Thanking you.

    Christmas morning in rented holiday accommodation, woke up to no hot water and no heating.
    Googled the fault code, found your video and was able to repressurise the boiler.
    Excellent, very clear and helpful. Thank you

    I have a Vaillant Ecotec Plus 824 and was faced with the F22 error. I was worried because this error prevented the boiler from heating hot taps as well as central heating. I understood the filling loop is just for central heating but I just wanted the hot tap. I didn't understand how the filling loop would let the hot water taps work. Nevertheless, I followed the instructions in this video and the boiler kicked back into action, including the hot taps. I guess it's just how the boiler operates. Thank you so much for this video. I've been at work all day and was desperate for a shower at 1am!

    We had F.22 error going on all day. My wife called the housing association in the morning and the b******s said that from the 30th of March lack of hot water or heating is not considered "an emergency".
    After watching your video I fixed the boiler myself! Now let's hope the boiler won't blow up at night 🤣

    Our boiler looks the same but I don't see any dials underneath it, we also have a immersion heater upstairs and when we had this low pressure problem in the past an engineer from the boiler company installed a similar dials but instead of what you had in this video ours is a screw kind of dials. I have fixed this problem in the past many times but this time it's not doing anything when I allow water into the tank/boiler to get the pressure up. Any ideas why it's not working this time?
