BoilerFaultCodesTechnical description
The boiler is on standby
What causes this fault?
This status occurs when the boiler has successfully heated your radiators or water cylinder to the required temperature and no longer needs to fire the burner. It acts as a pause state, where the system monitors for a drop in temperature or a new signal from your thermostat before restarting. There is physically nothing wrong with the appliance; it is simply waiting for the next instruction to provide heat.
DIY fix possible
Check if your room thermostat or programmer is set to a temperature higher than the current room temperature.Ensure the heating and hot water schedules are set to 'On' or 'Auto'.Wait a few minutes to see if the boiler fires up once the system temperature drops slightly.
