Possible Causes
Stuck DHW flow sensor or turbine, Blocked DHW inlet filter, Faulty DHW flow switch, Limescale in DHW flow path
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power and close the cold water isolation valve to the boiler before removing any DHW components.
- Check DHW flow: Open a hot tap fully. If the boiler does not recognise flow (no flame symbol, no start), the DHW flow sensor may be stuck.
- Clean inlet filter (engineer): Many Remeha combis have a cold inlet filter that can block. A competent engineer should isolate, remove, and clean this filter.
- Engineer tasks: Inspect and clean or replace the DHW flow sensor/turbine, descale the DHW side if heavily scaled, and verify correct wiring to the PCB.
