One of the best home heating systems is the wall Gas Boiler. Today, various Gas Boilers with many features and functionalities and in a variety of models and brands are available in the market. But regardless of the brand and model of the wall Gas Boiler, when you face common problems and Gas Boiler breakdowns, you will experience great inconvenience and unpleasant discomfort until the Gas Boiler is repaired and the problem is resolved.
Gas Boiler not turned on
One of the common problems that occurs in many wall or floor Gas Boilers, regardless of the model and brand of the Gas Boiler, is that the Gas Boiler does not turn on. The reason why the Gas Boiler is not turned on can be several cases that only after a complete and accurate troubleshooting by a professional wall Gas Boiler repairman, it is possible to solve the problem in a completely principled way and without return.
Cause the wall Gas Boiler does not turn on
Your device may have a problem with the spark plug and you are looking for the reason why the Gas Boiler spark plug does not light up, or other reasons may have caused the problem in the Gas Boiler and led to it not turning on. In any case, the cases that are checked by the wall Gas Boiler repairman for the cause of the Gas Boiler burner not turning on, are stated below. Note that many of these reasons, due to their specialization, can be solved only by an experienced wall Gas Boiler technician, and any manipulation by the resulting people can lead to serious risks and financial losses.
Because wall-mounted Gas Boilers are connected to and used by the home's water, electricity, and gas systems, you need to make sure that the device is completely damaged before attempting to repair your Gas Boiler and troubleshoot it. Of course, the Carabama Gas Boiler specialist will first perform a complete troubleshooting of the device at home.
To make sure there is a problem with the Gas Boiler itself, check the water pressure of the house and faucets, electrical boxes and fuses and valves and gas pipes so that they are not a problem. If something did not go wrong, it can be assumed that the problem is with the Gas Boiler of the pipe and its radiators.
In some Gas Boilers, the digital display shows error codes when a problem occurs on the device. Some also have a red light that lights up if there is a problem with the Gas Boiler turning on. Therefore, first find the relevant error code in the Gas Boiler manual and seek to fix it, or reset the device to see if the red light goes off or not. If the red light is still on after resetting the device, contact a specialist Gas Boiler repairman to find out why the Gas Boiler red light is on.
Circuit tubes are blown
One of the most common reasons for the Gas Boiler not turning on is air clogging of the Gas Boiler circuit pipes and radiators. If the problem persists after starting and resetting the Gas Boiler, there may be a problem with clogged Gas Boiler circuit pipes that need ventilation. Therefore, ventilate all radiators or radiators with the help of a water pan.
Gas Boiler water pressure is not adjusted
In many cases, the reason why the Gas Boiler does not turn on is due to its water pressure, which is not within the operating range of the device or is too high or too low, and the so-called Gas Boiler has a pressure drop. Since all wall Gas Boilers are equipped with a barometer system and turn off the device automatically if the Gas Boiler pressure rises or falls, you should always make sure to adjust the Gas Boiler water pressure and do this on a monthly basis.
The water pressure of the Gas Boiler can be read through the hand indicator. This number is usually between 1 and 2, which is the normal operating pressure of the device. If the pressure hand reaches close to 0.5, the Gas Boiler will turn off automatically and will not turn on until the pressure is reset. In this case, the water pressure can be adjusted and increased or decreased through the water pressure valve, which is usually located under the device.
The exact location of the water pressure valve can be informed with the help of the device manual. Also, if after adjusting the Gas Boiler pressure again, a short pressure drop occurs again, one of the radiators is leaking or there is another problem that you must refer to a specialist Gas Boiler repairman.
The circuit tubes are deposited.
Another reason for the Gas Boiler not turning on is due to clogging of the pipes by sediment. This is due to the hardness of the water available, and if your Gas Boiler does not have water hardeners or scale filters, it is best to equip the Gas Boiler before the problem occurs. However, if the problem of your wall Gas Boiler not turning on is due to clogged pipes and radiators, you may not be able to fix the problem yourself and it is recommended that you contact a Gas Boiler repair specialist.
The Gas Boiler chimney does not work properly or its installation was not correct
Gas Boiler chimney is one of the most important members in removing smoke from combustion. If the Gas Boiler chimney is not at a suitable distance from the ceiling, it will not succeed in expelling the smoke and some of them will accumulate in the same place of the device. This, in addition to the obvious dangers, is due to the Gas Boiler sensors, which are able to detect the accumulation of smoke around the Gas Boiler, causing the device to shut down quickly and spontaneously. Even after re-turning the Gas Boiler, it will turn off immediately. Keep in mind that the minimum standard height from the Gas Boiler to the top of the chimney cap is 4 meters.
The Gas Boiler candle has a problem and does not light up
A fault in the ignition and gas supply system of the Gas Boiler can be the reason why the Gas Boiler spark plug does not light up. But the candle itself may have a problem. To ensure this, you should turn on the hot water tap and try to light the candle manually with the help of a lighter. If the Gas Boiler turns on, the problem is with the Gas Boiler spark plug system itself, which you should ask a Gas Boiler repair specialist to replace.
The spark plug gas is supplied through a thin tube that may cause the Gas Boiler spark plug to shut down due to clogging by dirt and dust and may not be able to light up again.
The Gas Boiler overheats
Another reason that the Gas Boiler shuts down all at once is that it overheats. If the Gas Boiler gets too hot, the device will turn off to avoid hazards and safety. The cause of the Gas Boiler overheating is related to many and complex cases that require the help of an experienced specialist to solve the Gas Boiler problem. If your Gas Boiler has a digital display, the corresponding error code will appear on it or it will beep continuously to alert you to overheating. The Gas Boiler board has a problem
If none of the above were the cause of your Gas Boiler not turning on, this problem may be due to a defect in the Gas Boiler board. In this case, it is necessary to refer to the Gas Boiler repairman and ask him to troubleshoot the device and if the board is found to be defective, replace or repair it.
