Hi

Just bought my first house 8 days ago. It has a Ferroli 77 FF Combi
Boiler which worked fine for 7 days. Then the hot water tap gave only
cold water, followed by the pilot going out. I followed the
instructions to relight the pilot but it does nothing not even a
spark. The system pressure looks to be below 1.0 bar and a call to a
plumber suggested I top up the system water but he could give me no
details as he was not aware of Ferroli boilers.

Anybody out there know what to do to top up the system. There are 3
pipes entering from underneath to the left; gas, hot water out, cold
water in. and 2 entering to the right CH in, CH out and also a much
thinner copper pipe. I can find no tap on the thin pipe and don't
think it has anything to do with the other 5 pipes.

Any ideas? Thanks for any help
