filling loop

In Riemannian geometry, the filling radius of a Riemannian manifold X is a metric invariant of X. It was originally introduced in 1983 by Mikhail Gromov, who used it to prove his systolic inequality for essential manifolds, vastly generalizing Loewner's torus inequality and Pu's inequality for the real projective plane, and creating systolic geometry in its modern form.
The filling radius of a simple loop C in the plane is defined as the largest radius, R > 0, of a circle that fits inside C:

    Filling loop on Greenstar Heatslave ii 18/25

    Hi I’m trying to put more pressure into my external oil combo boiler (heatslave ii 1825) but can’t ring the filling loop The only thing I can see which looks like a braided pipe with 2 black valves is right at the back of the boiler so is pretty much unreachable. So I’m assuming that can’t be...

    Have to keep using filling loop to put pressure into system!

    Hi My parents late 80's and early 90's live in a 3 bedroom semi. Ideal logic 30 combi boiler fitted in the bathroom provides heat and hot water. Radiators and original pipe work were put in by Dad 40 - 50 years ago, when it started life as a solid fuel driven system. By the end of the winter...

    Boiler filling loop not working

    Hi all, I have an Electromax boiler (Heatrae Sadia), and I'm having a pressure issue. The pressure is near to 0.8, I know that it should be about 1.5. The filling loop was already connected, so my understanding is that opening both the black valves at the end of the filling loop the pressure...

    Filling loop key stuck

    Hi I have a greenstar 37cdi boiler and the key for the filling loop is stuck. I can turn it to the Lock / unlock positions OK and fill te system by the the needle valve but cannot fully remove the key. Is it OK the leave the key in place as any extra force will break the plastic filling loop.

    F22 and filling loop only one handle..

    Hi, stupid question but can anyone help...? I had an F22 message on my ecotec pro 24. From what I've seen online I understood I had to use a screwdriver on the valve at the top of the filling loop (my filling loop only has one handle) but there isn't anywhere to use a screwdriver.... Just...

    Hi All, Today was sat at home and heard a pop from the kitchen, went in there and had water gushing everywhere from a burst on the flexible hose thing that connects the water supply to the boiler via the filling loop. Managed to turn off the water at the mains after a couple of minutes as...

    Boulter Camray 5 leaking filling loop and pressure rise

    Hi guys, I have a Boulter Camray 5 combination oil boiler (quite old I think). Recently I bled the radiators and then the next day was woken by a horrible noise from the boiler. I think the pressure drop caused it(?). Anyway, I rectified the issue by using the filling loop to restore...

    Vaillant Ecotec Plus 637 - help required no filling loop

    Hi there, I have an F22 fault on my boiler, we only moved in recently and had a radiator removed for some work to take place on the wall behind. I am presuming this has reduced the water pressure in the boiler which is why we are without central heating. The help guides and videos I have...

    Will this have an external filling loop somewhere?

    Customer hadn't seen one and proved tricky to locate. I know some are topped up from underneath with a couple of switches or whatever which I've managed to suss out before but couldnt spot anything for this one so I'm thinking it must have a loop somewhere else? If so I'll tell him to get...

    Biasi Boiler Low Pressure

    Hi All, Hope you can help as we have just moved into a new house that has a Biasi boiler in and is low on pressure. My knowledge is very low but I must be missing something obvious as I cannot work out how to fill the boiler? Pictures attached.

    WHY are some combis fitted with an integral or fixed filling loop?

    I have a main Eco 30 that i am working on and the Filling loop needs replacing. OE is £60. There are a few online around £30 (4 day wait) or I can use a flexi. Just wondering which way to go here. Also it is always advised that flexi's be removed - WHY since the fixed one obv isn't.

Other valve isn't leaking externally but must have a slight problem in the valve it's self as the pressure is constantly rising.. Is there any way I...

    Locating filling loop

    Hi, Would the loop in the picture (silver flexi pipe) be identified as the filling loop? My Potterton promax boiler has dropped to 1bar so just want to find out how to repressurise the system. One side of the pipework goes up to the boiler the other side to an expansion vessel. It is hot to...

    Filling Loop Leaking/Not Working

    Noticed my boiler pressure was low (zero) yesterday. New house and it was ok when moved in, so presume there's a leak somewhere... Anyway I've previously had no trouble on other boilers just turning the black taps to fill the system via the filling loop. However, yesterday when I tried this...

    Drip from Filling Loop

    Hi folks, Just bought a new house and for the first time, have my very own boiler! However......the filling loop has a drip coming from the "in" pipe by the looks of things. From what I have read so far, it seems to be a relatively easy fix, and with my boiler service not for another 6 weeks...
