Troubleshooting

Boiler not firing up

Check the LPG supply is on. Ensure the thermostat is calling for heat and set to the correct temperature. Check for any error codes on the display and consult the user manual.

No hot water or intermittent hot water

Verify the hot water demand. Check the boiler's hot water settings. Ensure the LPG supply is adequate. If the issue persists, an engineer may need to inspect the heat exchanger or internal components.

Low central heating output

Check the room thermostat settings. Ensure radiators are not airlocked by bleeding them. Verify the system pressure is within the recommended range (usually 1-1.5 bar when cold).

Error code displayed

Note the specific error code displayed on the full-colour screen. Consult the user manual for the meaning of the code and recommended actions. Contact a qualified engineer if the error persists or indicates a serious issue.

Unusual noises (e.g., banging, whistling)

These can indicate air in the system, low pressure, or a component issue. Bleed radiators, check system pressure, and if noises continue, arrange for an engineer to inspect the boiler.
