combi boiler

Hi I recently drained my combi boiler to fit a new radiator. After the refill everything is working fine and I can find no leaks, but the pressure has been dropping 0.1 bar overnight when it's cold. Is this normal for the first day or two? I read that these boilers have an air vent, so perhaps...

We got no water at the moment as there is a leak on the mains in the street and our internal pipework ran at least partially empty. Our (rather new) Baxi 860 Combi is upstairs, probably amongst the highest points in the pipework. Is there anything I need to watch out for when restarting the...
