FAQs

How often should I have my boiler serviced?

Vaillant recommends an annual service by a Gas Safe registered engineer.

What is the correct water pressure for my boiler?

The ideal water pressure is between 1 and 2 bar. Check the pressure gauge on the boiler.

Where can I find the boiler's serial number?

The serial number is located on the data plate, usually found inside the boiler's front panel.

What should I do if my boiler displays an error code?

Consult the user manual for the specific error code and follow the troubleshooting steps. If the issue persists, contact a Gas Safe engineer.

Can I install the boiler myself?

No, the Vaillant ecoTEC Plus 840 must be installed by a Gas Safe registered engineer to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.

How do I adjust the heating temperature?

Use the controls on the front panel or the compatible thermostat to adjust the heating temperature.

How do I convert the boiler to LPG?

Automatic LPG conversion on most outputs (excluding ecoTEC plus 840, 940 and 635), completed in minutes using the new intuitive interface, with no additional parts required. Follow the instructions in the user manual.

Troubleshooting

Boiler not starting.

Check the gas supply, power supply, and water pressure. If the issue persists, consult a Gas Safe engineer.

No hot water.

Check the boiler's settings, gas supply, and water pressure. If the pilot light is out, relight it following the manufacturer's instructions. If the problem continues, contact a qualified engineer.

Low water pressure.

Top up the system pressure using the filling loop until the pressure gauge reads between 1 and 2 bar. If the pressure drops frequently, consult a qualified engineer.
