How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Protect the boiler and piping from freezing to avoid burst pipes.
- 1. Check outdoor sensor: If your Noritz boiler uses an outdoor reset sensor, ensure it is properly mounted and wiring is intact.
- 2. Inspect condensate line: Look for frozen sections or ice buildup at the outlet. Thaw gently with warm towels and insulate exposed sections.
- 3. Maintain room temperature: Ensure the boiler room or mechanical space stays above freezing.
- 4. Professional review: A technician can verify freeze protection settings and recommend additional insulation or heat tracing if needed.
