    4 years on and this video is still useful. I called my landlord but they said it’s not an emergency so I took things in my hands. How can someone say, that in the middle of winter, no hot water and heating is not an emergency???
    Thank you so much!! Best thing ever 🤗

    I have no idea what a "Pouse" is, but many thanks for your video. After a bit of googling and viewing your video, I was able to re-pressurise my Baxi combi boiler. It was as you show, very easy, helped by the fact that my pipework was identical to the one you show. That saved me the cost of an expensive call-out, and a cold evening and night. Thanks once again.

      Hi, glad the video helped. For your information, POUSE is my nickname and has stuck with me since childhood. Enjoy your heating and thanks for watching! p.s - Just send the call out fee in the post ;-)

    Saved my day as my heating didn’t come on due to low pressure & I wasn’t sure how to re-pressurise. Followed the video and my heating is back on. It’s Easter weekend so it’d be at least a couple of days before I’d be able to get someone in so I’m very grateful. Thanks so much!

    It’s a cold night and I have two little ones in the house and the error code came up and we were literally freezing, saw your video here gave it a go, took me 30 seconds and now it’s up and running again. Kids think I am Mcgyver...😆. Thank you so much for saving us from the cold and also a heavy weekend call out charge. You certainly know your trade and you have earned my full respect. 👍

    Thank you thank you thank you! Dad said it would be easy to bleed the radiator, I did it after he went home, he didn't say anything about the pressure going down & the boiler instructions give no clues on how to refill the boiler! You've save me from a few cold weeks until a adultier adult is here next! :D

    Thanks mate, I was struggling as one of my valves wasn't moving and I thought I was using the wrong valve. I started looking for other ones including the black ones. Could've had a big problem if it wasn't for your video. The valve was stuck that was all ha ha, Put extra force into it and it worked. Would never have done that if it wasn't for your video. Well done mate.

    Thanks bud, bought a new house and they didn't go through filling in too much detail on the home demo and didn't think to ask - then last night I vent my en suite towel rail (first world problems) before I go to bed and the pressure drops like a stone and I realise I don't know how or where the refilling loop is - so I turned everything off and left it whilst I went to sleep. Mine isn't exactly the same as this; but there was more than enough information here (after taking off and reattaching one of the knobs because it couldn't be turned because it hit the knob further back) to sort mine out. Now both my towel rails are air-free (the master bathroom one was also shockingly devoid of water).
