Problems Refilling Ideal Logic 15

dmiraba

Hello, I´ve been having problems with my heating system, I tried to reset it both in the control panel and on the boiler (Ideal Logic 15), but I keep getting the same error code (low water pressure). Right now the pressure gauge is marking 0 psi, I know I need to get the pressure to at least 1 psi, The problem is I can´t find the filling loop, On the bottom of the boiler there is a yellow valve (I think is to cut the gas supply) and on the top I can see three pipes that go into the boiler (including the one with the pressure gauge) but none of them have valves or anything that looks like a flexible pipe. I went into the attic following the pipes (first time because this is a rented house) some of the pipes go to a water tank and then 3 more to a smaller tank on top of the other. Again I couldn't find any valves. Where do you think the filler loop could be located?. As you can tell I don´t know anything about boilers. I

Thanks a lot!!

In your hot press I'd say. Take a few pics. Not all plumbers fit the silver braided hose that should be fitted

Thanks a lot for the answer, I have been trying to post the pictures but the forum won't let me because I'm a new user, is there any other way?

Have a look in your attic. Is there a large and a small tank?

Yes, there is one big tank with a smaller one on top. The small has 2 water exits (one at a certain level and the other one on top) and a source of water on top that works with a float valve. when I checked the water level was just above one of the water exits so i pushed down the floater until the water reached the level of the other exit, I think it didn´t make any difference as the pressure didn´t rise.

I can't use that attachment. You either have an open vented or semi sealed system. Follow the outlet from the bottom of the small tank down to the hot press. Is there a valve anywhere.?
