Your heating system and boiler are at the correct pressure level, you do not have to repressurise your boiler. You may want to bleed your radiators, if this causes the pressure on the front of the boiler to drop, then you should repressurise to 1.5bar. For instructions for how to do this, you can watch the videos on our dedicated webpage www.idealsupport.co.uk or call us free of charge on 0808 175 9173.

There is an additional component that will need to be added to your boiler. This component may take up to 4 to 16 weeks to manufacture. An engineer will install this and is an additional safety device that is above and beyond the safety measures already within the boiler. It will not affect the performance or efficiency of your boiler.

The solution to this issue will require a heating engineer to visit your home, the visit will take 30-60 minutes. To register for the upgrade, we need you to confirm your contact details at www.idealsupport.co.uk or contact us on 0808 175 9173.

In the meantime, you can continue to use your boiler, however, we advise you to repressurise your boiler. For instructions on how to do this, you can watch the videos on our dedicated webpage www.idealsupport.co.uk or call us free of charge on 0808 175 9173.
