- Inspection annuelle: Have the boiler inspected and serviced annually by a qualified technician. This includes checking combustion efficiency, gas tightness, water pressure, and cleaning components.
- Casing Removal: The boiler's casing is designed to be easily removed in three parts, facilitating quick access for maintenance and cleaning.
- Water Pressure Check: Periodically check the system water pressure on the boiler's display. If it falls below the recommended level, repressurize the system according to the instructions.
- Protection antigel : If the boiler is installed in an area prone to freezing temperatures, ensure the optional anti-freeze resistance kit is installed and functioning, or take other appropriate measures to prevent freezing.
7. Dépannage
If you encounter issues with your boiler, refer to the following common troubleshooting points. For complex problems, contact a qualified service technician.
- No Heating/Hot Water:
- Vérifiez si la chaudière est sous tension.
- Verify the system water pressure.
- Vérifiez que le thermostat est correctement réglé et qu'il demande du chauffage.
- Vérifiez les codes d'erreur à l'écran.
- Codes d'erreur : If an error code appears on the display, consult the full user manual for its meaning and recommended action. Some errors may require a technician.
- Digital Flame Control: The boiler features digital flame control with three re-ignition attempts. If the flame fails to establish after these attempts, the boiler will lock out. This often indicates a gas supply issue or a fault with the ignition system.
