Discuss Isolate water to heating interface unit (HIU) in the Plumbing Jobs | The Job-board area at PlumbersForums.net

Hi there. I'm trying to work out how to isolate the water in my flat, so I can fix a leaking shower tap. My flat has a heating interface unit (HIU), which is being fed by various pipes - see photo. I'm not sure though what pipes I should / can isolate to stop the flow, can anyone provide any advice? Cold water is simple, there is a lever labelled for 'cold water isolation valve', which works fine. However, there's no equivalent for hot water, and I'm a bit worried about just turning them all off as there's quite a bit of pressure in the system. I can't find any valves on the pipes leading to the shower to isolate, so I need to do this centrally. Thanks for any advice.
