Boiler has been drained? HELP!

Hi I got the keys to my new house today and there is a sign on the taps and boiler saying that the system has been drained.

Do I really need to get a plumber or is it something I can do myself?

Thanks all x

    You can do it yourself if you know what you are doing otherwise get a plumber in.

    If the central heating has been drained it will need corrosion inhibitor adding and the radiators bleeding to ensure there is no air in the system.
