    Thank you. I thought I was doing the right thing following the instructions that came with the boiler but it was only following your instructions that showed me I wasn’t opening the valves far enough. You have saved me a call out.

    Hi Allen great videos and very informative. I have a worcester combi installed about 7 years ago. My preasure is fully down. The installer put a penny valve flex pipe in my attic which I have no idea why. my question is do I need to turn off the boiler before adding preasure or is it ok staying on cheers doney from Dublin

    Hi Allan, great video and great advice. I've recently had an Alpha E-Tec 28 installed and the filling loop (like the one you show at 01:49) has stopped filling the boiler when the black screws are both loosened. I'm going to get the installer round to have a look at it, but they've been pretty shoddy so far t.b.h, so I'm not that confident in them.
    I was wondering if you had any ideas about what the possible causes might be ? Also, would the E-Tec 28 be compatible with the type of remote filling loop you show at 03:38 ?. I'm thinking that if the screws on the fixed loops are fragile whether I'd be better just using a remote loop. Thanks for any help you could give ! Cheers...

My question is I’ve moved into a rented accommodation with an alpha E tec 28 but it’s not the same pipes/ valves your showing , I think , please advice I’ve put a picture so you can see , also if you have other videos on how to work this / understand this boiler that would be great , the thermostat/ controller on the wall is called central where guy can set programmes I will just put on manual to take chill off but again if any advice or videos on this one would be realty helpful and I will obviously donate what I can

    Hi Allan, happy new year and thanks for another great video. I have a question on the subject of pressure in the boiler. I fitted a worcester system boiler about a month back and shaped it from a baxi system boiler. It was a straightforward swap and I filled the system with the existing top up cistern, I think this is known as semi sealed? But pressure only reached .5 bar at most. All was working fine so I didn't think it was a problem but not sure what you think , is it OK just to be filled from the gravity cistern in roof space ? The feed also has a check Vale to prevent water going back up into cistern? What do you think ? Thanks

    But another engineer said if would be ok???
