    How to troubleshoot Fault Code E03 System Sensor Failure on my HTP EL-220?
    • H
      heather07Sep 9, 2025
      If your HTP Boiler displays Fault Code E03, it means there's a system sensor failure, possibly due to an open or shorted circuit. Here’s how to troubleshoot: Disconnect the system sensor from the wiring and measure its resistance. Compare the measured resistance to the table to see if it corresponds to the sensor's temperature. If the resistance doesn't match, replace the sensor. If the sensor is OK, disconnect the sensor wiring from both the boiler and the sensor, then check continuity using an ohmmeter. Repair or replace the wiring as necessary.

    What to do if my HTP EL-220 Boiler shows Fault Code F10?
    • B
      bcoxAug 23, 2025
      If your HTP Boiler displays fault code F10, it indicates the flame was lost three times during one demand call. To address this: 1. Monitor the gas pressure to the boiler during operation. 2. Make sure the flame remains stable once lit. 3. Confirm the display changes from “GAS VALVE ON” to “RUN” shortly after ignition. 4. Check the FLAME signal on the status display; it should exceed 1.0 when firing. 5. If the signal is below 1 microampere, clean the flame rectifier and spark probe. 6. If the issue continues and the ‘FLAME’ signal remains below 1.0, replace the flame probe and spark igniter probe. 7. A stable flame signal should read 5.0 to 9.0 after a minute of firing. If unsteady, inspect the burner and its sealing gaskets.

    What does Fault Code F01 mean on my HTP EL-220 and how do I fix it?
    • J
      Justin GrantAug 26, 2025
      If your HTP Boiler displays fault code F01, it means a safety interlock switch has tripped. Here's how to troubleshoot: 1. Check if an optional UL 353 LWCO is installed. 2. If so, see if the indicator light shows the LWCO has tripped. 3. If tripped, restore the water level and manually reset the switch and boiler. 4. If there are no optional switches, use an ohmmeter to test each standard switch after turning off the boiler and disconnecting the switch to be tested. Find the tripped switch and investigate the cause, considering that temperature switches often trip due to low water flow or poor heat transfer. 5. If no switches are tripped, push RESET on the boiler. If the F01 code returns after a short run, check the flue for blockage.

    How to fix Fault Code FLU on my HTP EL-220?
    • P
      Phillip EvansAug 27, 2025
      If your HTP Boiler is showing Fault Code FLU, it means there's excessive flue pressure. Here's how to address it: 1. Make sure that the flue is not blocked. 2. Check the switch wiring by applying a jumper in place of the switch. If the code clears with the jumper in place, replace the flue switch and connect the wires to the new switch before running the boiler.

    What does Fault Code F00 mean on my HTP EL-220?
    • J
      Joseph RogersAug 27, 2025
      If your HTP Boiler is displaying fault code F00, it indicates the water in the boiler has overheated. Here’s how to address the issue: 1. Verify the circulator pump is functioning correctly. 2. If the pump is running, ensure there is water in the system and it's circulating properly. Check that all ball valves and zone valves are correctly opened or closed. 3. Observe the temperature/pressure gauge. If the water isn't excessively hot but the message appears, inspect the wiring to the water ECO sensor and repair if needed. If the wiring is fine and the code persists without overheating, replace the ECO sensor.

    What does Fault Code F11 on my HTP Boiler mean?
    • T
      tyler74Dec 1, 2025
      If your HTP Boiler displays fault code F11, it indicates there's flame present when the control isn't calling for the boiler to run. Here's what to do: 1. Check for a flame through the window. If a flame is present, turn off the gas supply to the boiler at the service valve and replace the gas valve. 2. If the flame signal on the status menu is greater than 1.0 when the burner is off, replace the spark igniter and the flame rectification probe. 3. If the flame return sensor is not present after turning off the gas supply, check the gas valve electrical connection. 4. Repair the condensate system as needed. If condensate has backed up and partially filled the combustion chamber, the refractory wall may be damaged and should be replaced. 5. After taking corrective action, turn the gas ...

    • C
      Charlene KingSep 18, 2025
      If your HTP Boiler displays fault code F31, it indicates there was an error while programming the control, and the memory is corrupt. The control must be re-programmed. If programming does not solve the problem, the control must be replaced.

    • L
      Lauren BrownSep 23, 2025
      If your HTP Boiler displays Blocking Code E19, it means the line voltage frequency is out of range. Inspect the power wiring to the boiler and repair as necessary. If connected to line voltage, notify the power company. If connected to an alternate power source such as a generator or inverter, make sure the line voltage frequency supplied by the device is 60 Hz.

    What does Fault Code F13 mean on my HTP Boiler?
    • K
      kimrobinsonSep 4, 2025
      If your HTP Boiler displays fault code F13, it indicates the fan isn't running at the commanded speed. Here's how to troubleshoot: 1. Check the combustion air fan wiring. 2. Measure the DC voltage from the red fan wire to ground while connected to the fan; it should be between 24 to 40 volts. If lower than 24 volts, check for excessive external loads on the boiler sensor terminals. Disconnect the 5-pin plug from the fan and check the voltage on the red wire again. If it's now between 24-40 volts, replace the fan. If it remains below 24 volts, replace the boiler control board.
