Found the “linking tube” one black knob, nothing on the other end!! Aarghhh how do I twist and fill it with water then?!

Or can somebody come to Streatham and sort me out!!!

There’s usually two knobs on the fill loop so make sure you got both.

Depending where your boiler is the loop may not be by it but in another cupboard or somewhere else. (Ours is in the attic and the fill loop is in one of the ensuites)

Good luck, nothing worse than a cold shower!

Found the loop but only one black knob, the other end of the loop doesn’t having anything I can turn!

Is there anyway to upload pics on this forum?

There's only one knob on most new filling points.

One end is the valve the other end is a non return valve.

If it's not filling I suggest your non return valve could be stuck

Spanner the nut off and run it into a bowl to see if your getting water out
