    Hi,

    I have a Potterton Performa 30 boiler, 4 years old, the pressure has gradually dropping over the last 2 years (Since last service) and now its basically at zero and the boiler is making some strange noises when switched on - Sounds like air mixed with water running through the pipes.

    To re-pressure it looks straight forward but I don't have the filling loop or correct size spanners to remove the caps!

    Is there another way to re-pressure these units?
    If not is there any plumbers in Dublin north can could do a visit tomorrow?

    Thanks
