Can anyone help me identify which tap/connection it is to top up the system as the level has dropped quite a way below the red marker for the cold fill pressure on the gauge? Boiler was installed approx. 2014. I've looked in the manual & online but can't find anything. Many thanks

need more pics can not see any thing there.

Off the balanced cold

Op do you see the red band black body ariston valve there’s a silver flexi pipe off that there will be a valve on that eg behind the pipe in the right photo

Pressure wants to be around 1 bar which by the looks it is (cold)

Sorry! Doesn't help that I have no idea what I'm looking at...

Just taking these photo's now & I've noticed one of the blue taps at the bottom, last photo BoilerH, does actually say 'cold in', but i've just turned this & nothing has happened. The heating is off at the moment, does it need to be on & try that tap?

Thanks again for any replies

Thanks, it is working, but the user manual I have states that system top up is required if the black marker on the gauge falls below the red cold fill pressure marker? Last year the black marker was only just under the red, it's dropped lower now, so i'm asking how to top up?
