Possible Causes
Low system water pressure, Faulty low water cutoff, Air trapped in system, Circulator pump failure
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power and allow system to cool before opening any valves. Hot water under pressure can cause burns.
Steps:
- Check pressure gauge: Verify system pressure is within the recommended range. Add water via the fill valve if low, following manufacturer instructions.
- Bleed air: Bleed radiators or air vents to remove trapped air that can stop flow.
- Test circulator: Ensure the circulator pump runs when there is a call for heat. Replace if seized or noisy.
- Check low water cutoff: Test and, if necessary, replace the low water cutoff device.
Hydronic safety faults should be handled by a qualified heating technician.
