The 6 most common faults
01
08 High DIY-safe
Your boiler has stopped working because the water pressure inside the system is too low to operate safely.
What to try first
Locate the filling loop (usually a flexible silver hose) underneath the boiler.Open the valves to allow mains cold water into the system until the pressure gauge reads between 1.0 and 1.5 bar.Close both valves tightly to stop the inflow of water.
02
01 High Engineer
Your boiler has detected an ignition failure, meaning it is failing to light the flame required to provide heating and hot water.

Call a Gas Safe engineer if…
- You can smell gas or see signs of a leak
- The Chaffoteaux shows an Emergency or High severity code
- The boiler keeps locking out after repeated resets
- You've tried the DIY checks and the fault hasn't cleared
- There's visible water leaking from the boiler
- The flame is yellow or orange instead of blue
