    Hello
    I recently purchased a Vitodens 111 boiler and the pressure dropped below 1 bar.
    The question is which valve can let water in, because I can`t find information on this anywhere.

    Not really, I remember that the installer said that you can top up the water using one of these valves, but I don`t remember which one.

    And don`t I write anything on page 8 of this manual? I don`t know if you have the same layout as in the picture.

    You see, I missed it, so it turns out that the right knob is for admission.

    Check if this manual of mine is really for your boiler. You only provided the initial boiler designation.

    Yes, the same, the installer also added that you need to unscrew one valve slightly and the other one can be turned up to the maximum and reach 1.2 bar, but it is best if the furnace does not run. I found this information somewhere else, so I guess it`s correct.
    Quote:
    There should be 2 black knobs under the boiler (from the bottom). First open one, then the other - about 4-5 turns. Any order. After topping up to 1.5 bar - close.

    So try it and see what happens.

    I added water and it`s OK for now. You need to turn both valves to the left (from the bottom, looking counterclockwise) several times, in my case 3 times, and place a bucket under it because something may drip, and wait, in my case it filled very slowly, but it can probably be done faster. The installer recommended 1.2 bar and that`s what I got.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around refilling the pressure in a Viessmann Vitodens 111 boiler, which had dropped below 1 bar. Users sought clarification on which valve to use for adding water. It was noted that the manual may not provide clear instructions, but one user identified that the right knob is for water admission. Another user confirmed that both valves need to be turned counterclockwise to refill, with a recommendation to achieve a pressure of 1.2 bar while ensuring the boiler is not running. Users shared their experiences, indicating that the process may be slow and suggested placing a bucket underneath to catch any drips during refilling.
