Quick fault lookup

Most common Vaillant fault codes

These are the codes Wokingham homeowners report most often on ecoTEC Plus, Pro and Exclusive models. See the full fault code guide for the complete index.

F.22

Low water pressure

Repressurise to 1.5 bar using the filling loop. If pressure keeps dropping, hidden leak or failing expansion vessel — engineer required.

F.75

Pump / pressure sensor fault

Pump not detected on startup or pressure sensor blocked with magnetite sludge. Common in Wokingham’s hard water area. Engineer needed.

F.28

Ignition failure

Gas supply issue, frozen condensate pipe in winter, or faulty spark electrode. Check gas supply and condensate pipe before calling.

F.29

Flame loss lockout

Flame established then lost. Gas valve or ionisation sensor fault. Press Reset once — if it returns immediately, engineer required.

F.27

Flame without demand

Gas valve fault. Turn off at wall immediately. Do not restart. Safety-critical — Gas Safe engineer required before use.

F.32

Fan fault

Fan not operating correctly — prevents safe venting. Do not reset repeatedly. Gas Safe engineer required immediately.

Common questions

Vaillant boiler FAQ

What does the F.22 fault code mean on my Vaillant?

F.22 indicates low water pressure. This is one of the most common Vaillant faults — often caused by a leak, or by recently bleeding radiators. You can usually resolve it by topping up the system pressure to 1.5 bar using the filling loop (usually a small lever handle under the boiler). If the pressure drops repeatedly, you likely have a failing expansion vessel or a hidden leak — book a diagnostic to find the cause.

Why is my Vaillant showing F.75?

F.75 means the boiler is trying to start the pump but isn’t detecting a pressure rise — either the pump has seized or the pressure sensor is blocked with magnetite sludge. It’s very common in Wokingham’s hard water area. Resetting may work temporarily but the underlying cause needs addressing. We carry genuine Vaillant pressure sensors on the van. A powerflush and a magnetic filter prevent recurrence.

What should I do if I see F.28 or F.29?

Both are ignition faults. F.28 means the boiler failed to ignite; F.29 means the flame was lost during operation. In winter, a frozen condensate pipe is the most common cause — locate the white plastic pipe exiting the wall, pour warm (not boiling) water over it, then press Reset for 3–5 seconds. If the fault isn’t caused by the condensate pipe, a Gas Safe engineer needs to check the gas valve and spark electrode.

How do I reset my Vaillant ecoTEC boiler?

Look for the button with a flame symbol with a cross through it, or a button labelled ‘Reset.’ Press and hold for 3–5 seconds. If the fault code returns immediately after a reset, stop — do not keep pressing. This indicates a persistent safety issue requiring a professional diagnostic. See our full fault code guide for model-specific reset instructions.

My Vaillant boiler is kettling — is this dangerous?

Not immediately dangerous, but it’s a serious warning sign. Kettling is caused by limescale or sludge on the heat exchanger restricting water flow, making water boil locally. Left untreated it causes the heat exchanger to crack — an expensive repair. A professional powerflush clears the debris. Adding a magnetic filter prevents it recurring. Common in Wokingham’s hard water area.

How often should I service my Vaillant boiler?

Annually. Vaillant warranties require an annual Gas Safe service to remain valid. As a Vaillant Advance Partner, Thermotec issues the digital Benchmark record Vaillant requires as proof. See our Vaillant boiler service page and our annual boiler servicing page for full detail.
