How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power before adjusting any wiring. Hydronic adjustments should be done carefully to avoid comfort issues.

  • Step 1 – Check sensors: Confirm the supply and return NTC sensors on the Triangle Tube boiler are firmly attached and wired correctly. Reseat connectors.
  • Step 2 – Review system valves: Look for bypass valves or mixing valves that may be fully open, causing very high flow and low temperature drop. Adjust according to system design.
  • Step 3 – Pump speed: If the system pump is variable-speed, reduce speed setting slightly to increase delta-T, following manufacturer guidelines.
  • Step 4 – Reset boiler: Restore power and monitor operation.
  • Professional evaluation: If E20 persists, a technician should verify sensor accuracy and system design flow rates.
