How to solve the low temperature problem of wall-hung boiler
As an important piece of heating equipment in modern homes, wall-hung boilers have a direct impact on home comfort. Recently, many users have reported that wall-mounted boilers have experienced low-temperature failures, resulting in poor heating effects. This article will combine the hot topics and hot content on the Internet in the past 10 days to provide you with a detailed analysis of the causes and solutions of low-temperature failures of wall-mounted boilers.
1. Common causes of low temperature failures of wall-hung boilers

According to recent user feedback and maintenance data, the main causes of low-temperature failures of wall-hung boilers are as follows:
| Cause of failure | Proportion | Typical performance |
|---|---|---|
| Water pressure is too low | 35% | The display prompts "E1" or "low voltage" |
| Insufficient gas supply | 25% | Flame is unstable or fails to ignite |
| Heat exchanger clogged | 20% | The outlet water temperature is significantly lower than the set value |
| Temperature sensor failure | 15% | The displayed temperature does not match the actual water temperature |
| other reasons | 5% | Circuit board failure, water pump abnormality, etc. |
2. Solve the low temperature failure of the wall-mounted boiler step by step
Step 1: Check water pressure
The normal water pressure of the wall-mounted boiler should be maintained between 1-1.5Bar. If the pressure is too low:
1. Find the water filling valve at the bottom of the boiler (usually a black knob)
2. Rotate the water injection valve counterclockwise and observe the pressure gauge to 1.5Bar.
3. Close the water filling valve clockwise
Step 2: Confirm gas supply
1. Check whether the gas valve is fully open
2. Confirm that the balance of the gas meter is sufficient (smart meters need to insert a card to check)
3. Observe the flame color: Normally it should be blue, yellow flame indicates insufficient combustion
Step 3: Clean the heat exchanger
Solution to blocked heat exchanger:
| Cleaning method | Operational points |
|---|---|
| chemical cleaning | Use special cleaning agent to rinse for 20 minutes |
| Physical cleaning | Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface carbon |
Step 4: Test the temperature sensor
1. Remove the sensor after powering off
2. Use a multimeter to measure the resistance value: it should be about 10kΩ at 25°C.
3. If the value deviation exceeds 20%, it needs to be replaced.
3. Maintenance suggestions to prevent low temperature failures
According to maintenance big data analysis, regular maintenance can reduce the probability of failure by 80%:
| maintenance items | cycle | Operation content |
|---|---|---|
| System blowdown | monthly | Open the drain valve until the water flows clear |
| Filter cleaning | quarterly | Disassemble the Y-type filter to remove impurities |
| Comprehensive maintenance | every year | Professionals conduct air/water circuit inspection |
4. Answers to users’ high-frequency questions
Q: The wall-mounted boiler displays low temperature but the actual water temperature is normal?
A: This is a typical sensor failure. You need to check whether the sensor wiring is oxidized or has poor contact.
Q: What should I do if low temperature faults occur repeatedly?
A: It is recommended to check the following aspects: 1) whether the gas pressure is stable; 2) whether there is air in the system; 3) whether the water pump is operating normally.
Q: How to release low temperature protection in winter?
A: Some models need to press and hold the "+" and "-" keys simultaneously for 5 seconds to enter the engineering mode, and set the code P01 to 0 (for details, please refer to the manual).
5. Professional maintenance suggestions
When encountering the following situations, it is recommended to contact professional after-sales immediately:
1. The fault code continues to display for more than 24 hours
2. Smell obvious gas odor
3. The wall-hung boiler makes abnormal noises
4. The problem still exists after multiple resets
Through the above systematic analysis and solutions, I believe you can effectively deal with low-temperature failures of wall-mounted boilers. Regular maintenance and correct use are key to ensuring efficient operation of your wall-hung boiler.
