    The pressure is too low, but adding water can be a half-measure. You should find a place where it is depleting (maybe no one ever let water in and it slowly flowed out somewhere, then it makes sense to top up with water) pos artur

    Turn the blue knob anti-clockwise until you hear water flowing in. The pressure on the manometer should be about 1.5 bar, tighten the choke. Continue looking for moisture in the installation. Check the screw connections and the breather. Below 1 bar, do not use a junker because you will stop the pump and it costs about PLN 1000. The boiler is not protected against water loss, so you need to take care not to damage the device.

    Topping up water and increasing the pressure.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around addressing low pressure issues in a Junkers boiler, which results in a lack of hot water. Users suggest adding water through a blue knob to increase pressure, ideally to around 1.5 bar. It is advised to check for leaks or moisture in the system, as continuous water loss can lead to further problems. Turning off installations before adding water is not necessary, but caution is recommended to avoid damaging the boiler. The author confirms successful recovery of the boiler pressure after following the advice.
