Condensate Siphon Blocked

Medium Severity Engineer Required

The internal condensate siphon is blocked with scale, debris, or ice.

Cold Weather Note

Check external condensate pipe for freezing before assuming the internal siphon is blocked.

Step-by-Step Fix Guide

  1. Step 1

    In cold weather, first check if the external condensate pipe is frozen and thaw if so

  2. Step 2 Engineer only

    If not frozen, a Gas Safe engineer should clean the condensate siphon inside the boiler

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.
