Possible Causes

System pressure below minimum, Leak in heating circuit, Faulty pressure sensor, Air in boiler causing false low pressure reading

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Do not overfill the system. Check for leaks before topping up repeatedly.

  • Read pressure: Check the pressure gauge or digital reading on the Hoval boiler. If below the minimum (often 0.8–1.0 bar), top up using the filling loop until within the recommended range.
  • Bleed air: After topping up, bleed radiators and the boiler's automatic air vent (if accessible), then recheck pressure.
  • Check for leaks: Inspect visible pipework, radiator valves, and the boiler underside for signs of water. Persistent pressure loss indicates a leak that must be repaired.
  • Pressure sensor: If pressure is correct but A10 remains, the water pressure sensor may be blocked or faulty. A technician can remove and clean or replace the sensor.
