How do you reset a burner boiler?
The reset button is typically located inside the blower compartment on the side of the blower motor. When should I press the reset button?

Why is my boiler flashing red?
Usually, when modern boilers need resetting they will display a fault code or begin to flash a red or green light. These signals indicate that your boiler senses a problem, which is why it has stopped working and needs to be reset.
Why is my gas boiler not working properly?
There are a variety of reasons why your boiler may not be working; common examples include the boiler pressure being too low or too high, a power cut, gas supply issues, a faulty pilot light, a frozen condensate pipe, faulty internal components or a more complex issue.
When to know if your boiler is losing pressure?
All boilers will very gradually lose boiler pressure over time but a sudden sharp drop could be the sign of a bigger issue. So if you’ve noticed a drop in boiler pressure check for water leaks and cold patches on radiators (as they may need bleeding).
What should I do if I have no power to my boiler?
Most boilers have at least one built in fuse. Others can have 3 or 4. If you have no power to your boiler and have tried the first 2 checks, the next thing to do is to check the boiler’s internal fuses. As a homeowner, this check – and all the other checks except 1 & 2 – are not safe for you to do.

What should the boiler pressure be when the heat is off?
Normally, when the heating is on, the boiler pressure is around 1.5-2 bar and around 1-1.5 when it’s off. Monitor the water pressure meter on the front of the boiler for any changes. If the pressure is higher than 2, your radiators might need bleeding or the pressure valve has come loose.
When to call a plumber for a boiler problem?
If this is the case, you’ll need the help of a professional. Sometimes a boiler will switch in and supply central heating to a home, but will refuse to heat water. There could be a number of reasons for this, and some of them can be rectified without calling for help from a plumber or energy supplier.
When do you turn on the boiler is there no hot water?
You need about 15 minutes to realise that there is no heating or hot water after you have turned on the boiler. If that happens, then it’s more than just bad luck on a chilly Monday morning. Something is not quite right with it.
