Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power before accessing the control board.

  • Step 1 – Confirm post-purge: After a heating cycle, the Triangle Tube boiler may run the fan for a short post-purge. This is normal for a few minutes.
  • Step 2 – Check thermostat and demand: Ensure there is truly no call for heat or DHW. Turn thermostats down and close hot water taps.
  • Step 3 – Power cycle: Turn off power for 30 seconds, then restore. If the fan starts immediately and runs continuously, a relay may be stuck.
  • Professional service: A technician should test the control board and fan wiring and replace the main control if the fan output is stuck on.
