Hi all,

Please can you advise how I would increase the pressure in my Glow worm Betacom 24c boiler (currently at .5 bar). Please see photo attached.

Many thanks indeed,
Daniel​

The Betacom 24c does not have an integral filling loop.

Have a look under at the pipe work. You will be looking for a braided silver coloured hose
going from one pipe to another with a turn lever on one or both ends.

(This may also be under a work top).

Turn these on to increase the pressure to 1.5 bar. Both taps must be turned off when finished.

And then watch it start leaking from the joints on the recuperator lol............

I have a betacom 24c glow-worm. It won't keep any pressure and when I too it it up all the water flows out of the overflow emptying it again. Any ideas???

Yep. You need to register, and then get a gsr. It's an internal problem.
