Possible Causes

Blocked condensate trap on Attack condensing boiler, Frozen condensate discharge pipe, Incorrectly installed condensate pipework, Faulty condensate level sensor (if fitted)

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Condensate is mildly acidic. Wear gloves and eye protection when handling.

Steps:

  • Inspect condensate trap: Remove the condensate trap from the bottom of the Attack boiler. Empty and flush with clean water to remove sludge.
  • Check condensate pipe: Follow the plastic pipe to its discharge point. Ensure it is not frozen, kinked, or blocked. Thaw gently with warm (not boiling) water if frozen.
  • Reassemble and test: Refit the trap securely, ensuring seals are in place. Restore power and reset the boiler.

Technician: If E13 persists, a service engineer should check for internal condensate leaks or sensor faults.
