Technical description: Neon indicating boiler status: Boiler is operational
What causes this fault?
This indicator is not a fault, but rather a confirmation that the boiler's internal controls have successfully received a demand for heat and the burner is currently firing. It shows that the electrical circuit is complete and the gas valve is open, allowing the unit to heat your water or radiators. You will see this light whenever the system is operating as intended.
