E119 FAULT CODE
Baxi

Low Water Pressure

Low Severity DIY Check Possible

The most common Baxi fault code. System water pressure has dropped below 0.5 bar — the minimum required for safe operation. Note: the display shows E1 then 19 sequentially.

Step-by-Step Fix Guide

  1. Step 1

    Note: E119 cannot be cleared by pressing reset — you must first increase the pressure

  2. Step 2

    Locate the pressure gauge (usually on the front of the boiler)

  3. Step 3

    Find the filling loop and slowly open both valves until pressure reaches 1.0–1.5 bar

  4. Step 4

    Close the filling loop valves

  5. Step 5

    The boiler should automatically restart, or press reset

  6. Step 6

    If pressure drops repeatedly, check for visible leaks and call a Gas Safe engineer

Gas Safe Reminder

Work on gas appliances must be carried out by a Gas Safe registered engineer. The steps above cover safe checks a homeowner can perform - any internal component replacement requires a qualified professional. If in doubt, always call an engineer.
