Hi,
We had a leak in our heating system and we drained the system to repair pipe. We turned the mains back on but the Boilermate 2000 would not refill from the F&E tank, we even thought putting mains up a radiator. Any ideas?

Ta in advance

Blocked cold feed into unit.

Seconded. Blocked cold fill pipe inside the Boilermate.

Fill it from the drain cock or through the open vent to get it going again in a hurry. As a permanent fix, fit a new, external cold fill pipe from the header tank to the drain cock tapping.

Cheers, Mike
