Pump Stuck or Running Dry

High Severity Engineer Required

The circulation pump is not running correctly — either it is seized, running without water, or its wiring has a fault.

Step-by-Step Fix Guide

  1. Step 1

    Check system pressure is correct

  2. Step 2

    Do not attempt to open the boiler casing

  3. Step 3 Engineer only

    A Gas Safe engineer will need to test the pump — if seized, it can sometimes be freed, but often needs replacing

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.
