The black pressure water value will not move.So cannot reset the water pressure bar.
Anonymous user 28/02/2024 - 4.01 PM
I have a Vizo24 combi boiler but it is only used for hot water. The pressure bar has dropped to under 1 bar.So I turned off at the socket.Then when I tried to turn the black water pressure tap/value it would not move.Can anyone please help on what to do next.Thank you

Hi,
It sounds like the ball valve has seized on the filling loop.
Contact a local plumber and ask for a new filling loop/valve to be installed. If it is attached directly to the boiler however you will need to contact a Gas engineer to replace the part on the boiler.
Regards,
John

i agree with the previous post if it is the filling loop valve on the boiler that has seized then only a gas safe guy is allowed to change it. The other question to ask yourself is why it has lost pressure and is the pressurised side for the rads not the hot water??? sounds like you should book yourself in for a boiler service with a gas safe plumber (should be done every year). badly serviced or unserviced gas appliances can kill people so I would call the person that has the qualifications to sort it and not take the risk.
