Possible Causes

Closed radiator valves, failed circulation pump, stuck 3‑way valve, incorrect control settings causing too high flow temperature

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Risk of scalding from hot water. Allow system to cool before bleeding or opening components.

  • Open valves: Ensure that enough radiators or underfloor loops are open to dissipate heat. Do not run the furnace against a closed system.
  • Check circulation pump: Confirm that the heating pump is running and not air‑locked (see B1 guidance).
  • Inspect 3‑way valve: If your Nibe unit uses a 3‑way valve to switch between heating and hot water, verify that it moves correctly and is not stuck in one position.
  • Review settings: In the Nibe menu, check the maximum flow temperature setting and adjust to recommended values for your system.

After corrections, reset the D2 alarm. If overheating continues, a technician should check sensors and safety thermostats.
