High Lockout
POINT H on Worcester Bosch Highflow 440 CDi

Your boiler is failing to circulate water when you turn on a hot tap, meaning you will likely have no hot water.

Call an engineer soon

Book a Gas Safe engineer within 24 to 48 hours. Your boiler may be unsafe or could break down completely if left.

Technical description

Pump does not run when domestic hot water demand is active

What causes this fault?

This fault occurs when the boiler detects that water isn't moving through the internal tank even though you have turned on a hot tap. The most common reason is a seized or failing internal pump, but it can also be caused by a faulty flow sensor that fails to tell the boiler to start the heating process.

Engineer required

This is a high severity fault. Stop using the boiler and call a Gas Safe registered engineer. Do not attempt gas-related repairs yourself.
