BoilerFaultCodesYour boiler has reached the required temperature and is currently pausing its firing cycle because your home is already warm enough.
This is a minor fault. Keep an eye on it and mention it at your next annual boiler service. Reset the boiler and see if it clears.
Technical description: Boiler operating but up to temperature.
What causes this fault?
This code appears when the water inside the boiler has reached the maximum temperature set by your thermostat or the control knob. The boiler temporarily stops burning gas to prevent overheating and to save energy because your home has already reached the desired warmth. It is a normal part of the heating cycle and the boiler will restart automatically once the water temperature drops slightly.
This status is frequently seen during spring and autumn when the weather is milder and your home requires less intense heating to stay comfortable.
DIY fix possible
Check your room thermostat is set to the temperature you desireWait for the house temperature to drop slightly for the boiler to restartEnsure radiator valves are open to allow heat to move away from the boiler
