Possible Causes

Failed heating elements, Flow below activation threshold, Defective flow sensor in Kospel hydraulic block, Faulty power relay/triac on main PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power and close water supply before opening the unit.

  • 1. Confirm demand: Open a hot tap fully. Check if the heater indicates flow (flow icon or LED). If not, suspect flow sensor or low flow.
  • 2. Clean inlet filter: Remove and clean the inlet strainer to ensure adequate flow.
  • 3. Check flow sensor: Inspect and, if necessary, replace the flow sensor in the hydraulic block.
  • 4. Test elements: With power off, measure resistance of each heating element. Replace any open or grounded elements.
  • 5. Control outputs: If elements are good but never receive power, the main PCB’s power relays/triacs may be defective and the board should be replaced.
