Cannot find pressure gauge

[Jim wiseman]

Hi, I cannot find pressure gauge on my oil boiler. Any help please.

 

[securespark]

What boiler is it?
Some detail would help.

It is an old danesmoor 15/19

I'm not an oil man but have you looked in your airing cupboard?

 

[Jim wiseman]

Yes I have, cannot find it anywhere.

Maybe it doesn't have one.

Is it a gravity fed system? If yes, there might not be a pressure gauge on the radiator side.

 

[Jim wiseman]

Thanks, not sure if it's gravity fed. The problem I am having is the upstairs radiators heat up but not the downstairs?.

Turn the ones off upstairs and try again?

I am not a plumber... if you have a water tank in the loft, and a secondary tank for the heating,then, yeah you are probably on a gravity fed system. If so, you won't have a pressure gauge.

Look at the pump, is it pumping water when heating is on?
