there will be a dial on the boiler with numbers, it shows what the pressure is at..

There is a dial with numbers but I thought that was to set how hot the water gets? We currently have it on 4, I think 6 is the highest.

Thanks for all the advice. I'm going to wait until OH can have a look and go through your instructions. I don't want to blow the house up - my buildings and contents insurance have both lapsed!

no its not one you turn up by hand, it is a guage with a needle in it..

No, we don't get instant hot water, we have to put the hot water on for that and we do that twice a day morning and evening.

We do have a water tank and we also have an immersion that we never use so not sure if the water tank is for that when the previous people owned the house. Sorry - even the last plumber was confused. He said it is a combi but I'm not sure.

NM - the make is Potterton (prima f) and I have no idea how old it is but over 7 years cause thats how long we've lived here. Last time we had it serviced the BG man said there wasn't any point replacing it as it still had a few good years left.

it sounds like my boiler and mine is not a combi. I too have to put the water on twice a day..
