Sorry if this sounds really stupid and written in plain stupid language but i hope to get some help here. Also im pretty new when it comes to boiler/heating.
Im lookin for probably a simple advice but i cant seem to get it anywhere. Tried googling for a manual but that seemed impossible.
Boiler is Ariston mircrogenus 23 MFFI
The pressure is low (as i can see that on the bar meter)
Its nearly dropped onto the red part (< 0.5 bar). Now a plumber once showed me how to up the pressure but that was 4 years ago and i honestly forgot.
I opened up the controls beneath the boiler. There are 3 valves at the upper part (with golden/metal knobs) and 6 smaller valves (screws?) at the bottom. If i remembered correct it was something with the upper right valve but i turned it a quater (max) to the right but boiler stays at 0.5 bar.
Am i overlooking something? Any other valves i need to open? Any help would be greatly apperciated!
edit i just read the faq/tips and i found the filling loop (silver flexible cable). It connects to the upper valves. Looks like this:
1---2 3
? ?
1 2 and 3 are the valves with copper/metal screws in front
--- is the filling loop (connecting valve 1 and 2)
? are blue switches below the valves; which i can turn to open or close. I tried opening both blue switches but still nothing happend.
Im feeling its something really simple but i just cant find it.
