How do I increase the pressure on my combi boiler?
Open both valves to allow cold water to enter the system, keeping an eye on the pressure gauge. Close both valves when the pressure gauge reaches 1.5 bar. Remove the filling loop if it isn’t a built-in one. Turn the boiler back on and recheck the pressure.
How does the Alpha Intec 30c boiler work?
The burner is lit electronically and the heat output is controlled by a modulating fan and gas valve. These are combination boilers providing both central heating and domestic hot water at mains pressure. The boilers are supplied with a pump, pressure relief valve, expansion vessel and pressure gauge fully assembled and tested.
How does the INTEC² 25X and 28X boiler work?
The InTec² 25X and 28X are combination boilers providing both central heating and domestic hot water at mains pressure. The boiler is supplied with a pump, pressure relief valve, expansion vessel and pressure gauge fully assembled and tested. It is designed for use with a fully pumped, sealed and pressurised central heating system. IMPORTANT
Are there any problems with the Alpha Innovation boilers?
Although we try to find fixes for all Alpha Innovation boilers those raising the most questions are the CB24, CD28X, Intec 28X and CD28C. So, where possible, we included problems that are common on these boilers specifically. If you’re sick of sinking cash into an unreliable boiler, you can investigate the cost of a new one.
What happens when the pressure on an alpha boiler drops?
When the boiler pressure drops to around 0.6bar on the pressure gauge, your Alpha boiler will fail to operate. A sudden drop in pressure is a strong indication that there’s a link somewhere around the heating system. Radiators, various pumps and expansion vessels can all be prone to leaking.
