Hi everyone, a quick "am I missing something" question.
I have a Betacom 3 30c combi boiler. I recently bled my radiators to get them back to full heat for the winter, but when I went to top up the boiler pressure, one of the two taps for the filling loop won't turn. (It's the rightmost of the two, which is the return I think.) It feels more than "a bit stuck", like something is blocking it.
I've used these taps to fill the boiler before. I had it professionally serviced this year since the last time I did, though. I'm wondering if there is some kind of locking pin or something that intentionally prevents it from opening? Or is it just "very stuck" and I need more force? I've searched but I can't find any instructions beyond "turn the taps to repressurise".
I still have 1.3 bar so it's not an urgent issue, but I'd like to know that I can do it if I need to.
Thank you!
