What does the 02 error mean on an Immergas boiler?

The 02 error on an Immergas boiler indicates the safety thermostat has activated due to overheating. The boiler has detected excessive internal temperature exceeding 100 degrees Celsius. Switch off the boiler at the electrical supply. Allow the boiler to cool down completely for a minimum of 60 minutes before attempting any reset. Check that all radiator valves are open to ensure adequate water circulation. If the error returns after cooling and reset, contact a qualified technician immediately as repeated overheating can indicate serious internal faults.

What does the 320 error mean on an Immergas heat pump?

The 320 error on an Immergas heat pump indicates an OLP sensor error. The overload protection sensor on the compressor has detected a fault. Switch off the heat pump at the isolator switch. Do not attempt to reset repeatedly. Contact a qualified technician with F-Gas certification for compressor and sensor inspection. This protection system prevents compressor damage from electrical overload.

What does the 01 error mean on an Immergas boiler?

The 01 error on an Immergas boiler indicates an ignition failure block. The boiler has attempted to ignite but failed within the preset time. If you smell gas, do not operate any switches, ventilate the area if safe to do so, leave the property immediately, and call the gas emergency service from outside. If there is no gas smell, check that the gas supply is turned on and other gas appliances are working. Press the reset button once only. If the error recurs after reset, do not attempt further resets. Contact a Gas Safe registered engineer for professional diagnosis.

What does the 202 error mean on an Immergas heat pump?

The 202 error on an Immergas heat pump indicates a sustained communication error between the control kit and outdoor unit lasting more than three minutes. Switch off the heat pump at the isolator switch for five minutes. Switch back on and monitor for the error. If communication is not restored, contact a qualified technician. Do not repeatedly reset the unit as this will not resolve a wiring or component fault.

What does the 27 error mean on an Immergas boiler?

The 27 error on an Immergas boiler indicates insufficient water circulation in the heating circuit. The boiler has detected inadequate water flow, which may cause overheating. Switch off the boiler at the electrical supply. Check that all radiator valves are fully open. Verify the system pressure is between 1.0 and 1.5 bar on the gauge. Listen for the circulation pump operating when you switch the boiler back on. If the pump is silent or making unusual noises, or if the error persists, contact a qualified technician to inspect the pump and system for blockages.

How can I maximise the efficiency of my Immergas condensing boiler?

To achieve maximum efficiency, lower the flow temperature setting. Condensing boilers operate most efficiently when return water temperatures stay below 55°C, which is the dew point for flue gases. Setting flow temperatures to 60°C or lower typically ensures the boiler operates in full condensing mode, capturing more heat from the flue gases and using less gas. Higher flow temperatures reduce efficiency as the boiler cannot fully condense the water vapour in the exhaust.

How do I repressurise my Immergas boiler?

Locate the filling loop beneath or near your boiler. Open both valves slowly to allow cold mains water into the system while watching the pressure gauge. When it reaches between 1.0 and 1.2 bar, close both valves securely.

Why does my Immergas boiler keep losing pressure?

Frequent pressure loss typically indicates a problem that requires professional diagnosis. Common causes include small leaks in the heating system pipework or radiator valves, a faulty pressure relief valve, or a problem with the expansion vessel. If you need to repressurise more than once every few months, contact a qualified technician to identify and repair the underlying cause. Do not ignore persistent pressure loss as it can lead to boiler damage or system failure.

What pressure should my Immergas boiler system maintain?

The boiler pressure gauge should read a value between 1.0 and 1.2 bar when the system is cold. This is the optimal operating range for most Immergas boilers.

Why are some radiators not heating up when my Immergas boiler is running?

If some radiators remain cold while the boiler is running, trapped air may be the cause. Bleed each cold radiator using a radiator key by opening the bleed valve until water flows steadily, then close it. Ensure all radiator valves are open. Check that the system pressure is between 1.0 and 1.5 bar after bleeding. If radiators remain cold after bleeding, or if multiple radiators are affected, contact a qualified technician as there may be a circulation pump fault or system blockage.
