Re-pressurise Glowworm Flexicom 18SX

Hi all. The pressure is down at 0.1 bar and flashing and there are no bleed things under the boiler itself so I assume I have to work from the hotpress.

The thing is there are multiple red valve handles in there and I haven't a breeze which one it would be. How would I figure it out?

Pics attached below of the various valves and the last one is under the boiler

Doesn't look like any of them your looking for a fill loop which has a steel braided hose attached
Something like the one below

This is on the bottom. The closest one has one of the above attached to it

You need to do a bit more investigating. Have you had your attic converted? if not, have you got two tanks in the attic, big one for water, and another small one, which would be heating?
If you dont have the small tank, youre on mains fill as the other reply said, so somewhere you will find a mains loop. theyre usually in the hotpress but ive seen them up over boilers as well as in attics.

Thats the one, the valve you need is on the right end of the hose.
Use a flat screwdriver and turn the slot on the valve 90 degrees and close again after 10 seconds.
Check the pressure on the boiler, and repeat if necessary until the pressure is approximately 1.2 - 1.5 bar.

Cheers all. Got sorted. Nice to have heat again!
