What causes the Ravenheat 02 fault?

This fault occurs when the water inside the heat exchanger reaches an unsafe temperature, triggering a safety shutdown. It is usually caused by a lack of water flow, often due to a seized internal pump or a blockage within the system's pipework. If the pump cannot move the hot water away from the burner quickly enough, the heat builds up rapidly and trips the overheat sensor.

This issue often appears when the heating is first turned on after summer, as the circulation pump can seize up during long periods of inactivity.

Typical repair cost £120-250 (including labour)
