Low Warning
56:1 on Viessmann Vitodens 300-W

Your boiler's hot water setting is incorrectly configured or a sensor is reporting a temperature outside of the normal operating range.

Monitor it

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

DHW temperature adjustable from 10 to 95°C (only for gas fired boilers). Observe the max. permissible DHW temperature

What causes this fault?

This fault occurs when the sensor responsible for monitoring your hot water temperature starts sending irregular or 'out of range' signals to the boiler's internal computer. The most common reason is that the sensor has developed an electrical fault or the internal wiring has become slightly corroded, preventing the boiler from knowing exactly how hot your water is. Because the boiler cannot safely verify the temperature, it may restrict hot water production as a precaution.

DIY fix possible

Check your hot water temperature settings on the boiler control panel.Ensure the target hot water temperature is set between 40°C and 60°C.Try resetting the boiler to clear the advisory code.
