Boiler pressure low

[ShadyBrady]

When i went to turn on boiler this morning it had a low pressure light flashing. I turned off the power and turned it on again and it worked. Same happened this evening

Is it Ok to have it running if the pressure is low? Is there any danger.?

There is a tube and i think i should connect it for a minute and disconnect when the pressure goes up half a bar. That right? Thanks

If its gas I think 1.5 bar is normal but so long as its not getting near zero you should be ok. You should find out why it keep dropping as your loosing water and that cause hard wear on the unit.

Note: I'm not a plummer alas

is it dangerous if it gets near zero or will it just go out? Thanks

Well I'll put it to you this way I once had a gas boiler that kept having to be topped up and yes it went quite low indeed (when my back was turned)
but I then made sure to keep it topped up until I finally had to get it seen too. There are inbuilt safety cut outs but personally I don't like relying on these when I know there is a problem that needs fixing.
