Energy and Money Saving Tips
To save energy and money, consider the following tips:

• Only heat the rooms you are using. Turn thermostatic radiator valves right down in rooms you don’t use.
• Insulate your cylinder with a well-fitted tank jacket to keep the water hotter for longer and save energy.
• Use thermal curtains and close curtains at dusk to prevent heat from escaping through the windows.
• Fitting a magnetic filter can help avoid expensive maintenance and repairs by attracting magnetic debris before it enters the boiler, making your heating system more energy efficient.

Why Having Your Boiler Serviced Is Important
It is important to have an annual service conducted in line with the instructions within the boiler installation and service manual. Here are four reasons to get your Baxi boiler serviced:

1. Warranty: Failure to have your boiler serviced every year will invalidate your warranty.

Energy and money saving tips

• Set your room thermostat between 18 and 21 degrees. Try turning it down by just one degree – you may still be warm enough and you will save energy and money.
• Only heat the rooms you are using. Turn thermostatic radiator valves right down in rooms you don’t use.
• If you have a hot water storage cylinder, turn the temperature down to 60°C/140°F. To prevent the growth of harmful bacteria it should not be lower than this temperature.
• Make sure the cylinder is well insulated. A well-fitted tank jacket will keep your water hotter for longer and save you money.
• Covering radiators with clothes or putting furniture in front means your boiler has to work harder for your room to get to the set temperature – costing you money and wasting energy.
• Thermal curtains, closed curtains at dusk, will help to stop heat escaping through the windows.
• Fitting a magnetic filter will attract magnetic debris before it enters your boiler, helping to avoid expensive maintenance and repairs, and making your heating system more energy efficient.

Your warranty

IMPORTANT! Please read the following information Your boiler comes with a free of charge parts and labour warranty of up to 10 years, depending on the model. To benefit from the full warranty for this product, you must:

• Ensure the warranty is registered within 30 days of installation. Please check to see if your installer has registered it on your behalf. If not please follow the instructions in this guide.
• Ensure your installer has completed the Benchmark checklist. We recommend this is done digitally using the Benchmark app. Find out more in this guide.
• Ensure your boiler and filter are serviced annually, within 60 days of the anniversary of the installation, by a Gas Safe engineer in accordance with the procedure in the installation and maintenance manual.
• Ensure your installer has cleaned any sludge out of the system, fitted a magnetic filter and treated the system water before fitting your new boiler. Your warranty does not cover a failure of the boiler caused by sludge.
• Keep the installation and maintenance manual safe for when your installer or engineer visits, as this includes the service record.
• If you have a Baxi 800 boiler installed, the Adey filter that is supplied with it must be also be fitted and registered to qualify for a 10-year warranty. If the correct filter is not fitted, or if it is removed within 10 years, the warranty will revert to two years only.

Why having your boiler serviced is important

Annual Service
It is important that an annual service is conducted in line with the instructions within the boiler installation and service manual.

Four good reasons to get your Baxi boiler serviced

1. Warranty
   Failure to have your boiler serviced every year will invalidate your warranty

2. Safety
   Your Gas Safe registered installer will check it is working safely, for your peace of mind

3. Efficiency
   An annual service helps your boiler to work more efficiently and keep your heating bills down

4. Reliability
   Reduces the risk of breakdowns and increases reliability

Getting the most from your boiler

Keep it clean!

• Whether you are replacing your boiler or having a complete new central heating system, your heating engineer must clean and treat your system with chemicals and fit a magnetic filter.
• At each annual service they will check the water in the system, to make sure there is no build-up of sludge and debris.

Protect your central heating system

• Power flushing – a power flush is a cleaning process that removes sludge, rust and debris from the pipes and radiators in your heating system so it can’t block the narrow tubes inside your new boiler.
• Inhibitor – once the heating system has been cleaned, it should be treated with an inhibitor to protect it and prevent further corrosion.
• Magnetic filter – will collect magnetic debris in the system water, before it enters the boiler.
• Limescale prevention – in hard water areas, a scale prevention device on the mains water will ensure limescale does not build up and block the heat exchanger in the boiler.

What is sludge?
Corrosion occurs naturally when metal and water meet. If left untreated in your heating system, corrosion can form into black iron-oxide sludge (‘Magnetite’) and other debris. This can build up in your heating system causing:

• Damage to the boiler and boiler pump.
• Damage to radiators that could cause leaks.
• Damage to radiator valves.
• Blocked pipework in the boiler or central heating system.

Why you need a magnetic filter
A magnetic filter will attract the magnetic debris in the system water before it enters your boiler, helping to protect it from sludge.
Note: Your boiler warranty does not cover damage to the boiler caused by sludge.

Troubleshooting

• From time to time, your boiler may display an error code and require attention. There are several error codes that you can solve yourself, without needing to wait or pay for an engineer to visit.
• If a small spanner appears , please contact your
• Gas Safe registered engineer or Baxi Customer Support on 0330 678 0917. Make a note of any error codes you have seen on the boiler, which can help them to identify the fault.

Hints and tips that may get your boiler working without an engineer visit

• Check there is power to boiler (is the boiler display on?)
• Check fuses and switches are ‘ON’.
• If you have a prepayment meter, is there enough credit?
• Check that Domestic Hot Water and/or Central Heating knobs in the front of the boiler are set to the correct temperature.
• Are your timer and room thermostats set correctly?
• If radiators are cold, are all the radiator and thermostatic valves ‘Open’?
• Noisy pipes? Remove air from the heating system by bleeding the radiators.
• Boiler running even though the heating is turned off? In cold weather, your boiler has ‘frost protection’ so it may run for a short time even with the heating turned off, to protect the boiler.

Error codes that you can put right yourself

• A.02.06 or H.02.07 Boiler needs repressurising

  • All boilers need repressurising occasionally. It’s a simple job you can do yourself. Watch our helpful video here:

• E.04.10 Frozen condensate pipe

  • Sometimes when it’s very cold, the white plastic condensate pipe outside freezes, and your boiler will shut down to protect itself. It’s an easy problem to solve. Watch our video.

Resetting your boiler

• If you ever need to reset your boiler, find out how on the Baxi website: https://www.baxi.co.uk/faqs/how-to-reset-a-baxi-boiler
• A full list of all the error codes can be found in the installation and servicing instructions that your installer should have left with you.
