Your boiler is currently in summer mode, meaning it is only prioritising hot water and will not turn on the radiators.

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

Summer/Winter function

What causes this fault?

This status occurs because the heating function has been manually deactivated or the outside temperature is high enough that the boiler's weather sensors have told it to stop warming the radiators. While the boiler will still provide hot water, it ignores any requests for central heating to save energy during warmer periods. It is an intentional setting rather than a mechanical failure or broken part.

This status is most common during the spring and summer months when homeowners turn down their thermostats or the boiler’s outdoor sensors detect warmer weather.

DIY fix possible

Locate the radiator symbol button on the control panel.Check if the heating temperature is set to 'Off' or a very low temperature.Increase the heating temperature setting to re-activate the central heating mode.
