Assuming combi has the circ pump on the flow and its E.vessel before the pump suction then the pump suction will be at the EV pressure (say 1.0 bar min) and the pump discharge at the EV pressure+the pump head, say (1.0+0.5), 1.5 bar so unlikely to pull in any air. If the EV has been installed on the pump discharge then the pump discharge will be 1.0 bar and the pump suction (1-0.5) 0.5 bar, still "positive" but depending on Hx/pipe (esp. micro bore) losses just may be negative back along the system. Any one who is familiar with combi boilers would know where the pump and EV are generally positioned.
