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.
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.

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.
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.
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. Summary generated by the language model.
