sounds like a plumber problem

Depends on what type of system you have. Sounds likely to be a leak somewhere!! How long has the system been in?

 

[stuart.ogden]

its been in for years i cant find a leaking pipe anywhere

Have you bled all the radiators?

Is it a combi boiler?

 

[stuart.ogden]

yes ita a combi boiler and does bleeding the radiators mean letting the air out???

diverter valve diahpragm

Was the expansion vessel on ours and water was being sent out of the outlet that goes outside.

Footpump with a long hose on it is what we used to re pressurise it.

I would second Amp David, but check your manual before just pumping it up.

I would be careful just repressurising an expansion vessel in the last 12 months I have seen two combis with faulty expansion vessels water had passed to the air side of the diaphram and the only solution was replacement as I assume the diaphram had failed
