Heating but no hot water - help

[coldwaterhelp]

Hello

I am hoping someone can give me some advice. I have a linea vodkera boiler and this morning I had low water pressure in the shower and it wasn't heating up. I checked my hot water taps and there was nothing coming out of them. I then checked my boiler and I noticed that the flame wasn't on. I tried to reset it it, but to no avail. The heating is still working though.

Last night the pressure was right down so I "filled" the system using the tap underneath - now I know it should be between 1 bar and 1.5 but it stuck and I couldn't close it off quickly enough and it went up to 2. Do you think this could be my problem? It is dropping back down now.

I have tried turning it to water only, and I don't even hear a firing up.

Please help.

Thank you

vodkera boiler

is that a polish model

seriously though, doesn't sound like the pressure is your issue here. If its over 1 and not firing then something else is a miss. We need boiler model to help more though, Vokera made alot of boilers! Btw if the pressure is constantly dropping then there may be a further issue, but as i said it won't stop the hot water working unless it drops below around 0.5

EDIT: just noticed you said "no water", not "no hot water" Kevs spot on. ignore me!

Thank you

I'll check I have put the filling tap back up correctly. I should be in the closed position?

Failing that, I will post my model number later. I had to rush out the door this morning to work so can't check at the mo.

Having to take a freezing shower is not good and I am hoping its something and nothing as I can't afford to fork out for a new boiler.

My colleague at works seems to think there might be an ignition switch I can press in to light the flame? I couldn't see on on the front Panel and am wondering whether it is underneath
