yes but will take ages..

have a look outside at ground level for a drain cock...

there are other ways of doing it but involves removing casing from boiler etc.

what has more than likely happend is that the red vessel(expansion) has lost its charge.(normal over time)

this controls the water pressure as it heats up.

the vessels can burst mate which means your "proper fooked"
