Sorry folks but that should read Vaillant turbomax 828



It also has a built-in filling loop, have you checked this one isn't
"open" ?

The boiler itself is about 5 yrs old. I'm pretty sure it has
electronic ingition but how do you tell ? If this system has a
built-in filling loop, where is it located ? as the only I know and
use is external and connected between the mains and one of the ch
system pipes. Also, regarding the pressure vessel, I know that they
are usually red in colour and round but looking inside the Vaillant I
don't see one ? any pointers ?

Unless yours is a different model from our 828 Turbomax, then it's an
8mm or so braided hose that is joined to the incoming mains water block.
There is a screwdriver slot in the water block to operate the filling loop.

Again, on ours the pressure vessel is red and sits at the very back of
the boiler, against the wall. You can't miss it...
It has a car-type valve on the top, so you can check the pressure.

Just looking at the servicing manual, I can confirm that the boiler is
a turbomax VUW 282/1E
