FONDITAL Gas Boiler Trouble shooting

I have a boiler Fondital Victoria Compact ctfs 24 AF. Recently, the following problem has appeared in his work. The pressure drops to zero, and the bottom of the device shows signs of water leakage. We have to carry out a resumption several times a day, and set working pressure. Caused specialists who suggested problems in the air valve, namely that it is contaminated. Tell me, how can I find this valve? It seems to me that I myself can wash it. In search of this valve, I opened the top cover of the unit. Having carefully examined it, I found a place where water drips. This is a faucet with a red valve. I noticed that the pressure was 3.5, and only then did the leak begin. The pressure becomes is zero, which leads to the shutdown of the boiler. Advise how I can solve this problem. And one more question, I found a red button on the side and pressed it. Do I need to squeeze it back?

 

The water you are running from the safety valve, which is likely to be damaged, and its replacement is required. And we recommend that you perform a full maintenance of your device. The safety valve is triggered by an excessively high pressure, which is growing due to the lack of any inspection, cleaning and repair. And you should check the expansion tank. And again, you need to raise the red button.

 

The boiler is equipped with a ctfs 24 AF board. It seems to me that he has a problem in the board. In more detail I tell. I arrive at the call, and the device is stopped by mistake "no flame." I found out that when I asked for heating, the unit turned on the pump and stopped by mistake. And if you need to turn on the NTC circuit, it immediately stops, without even trying to start the pump. But after a while he still starts pumping water, but it lasts a very short period of time. It seems to me that the turbine relay is malfunctioning. But I do not want to go into such details, because under warranty there will still be a replacement of the entire board. The only thing I do not like is the sound coming from the board, when it is powered. And, this happens both on the old board, and on the installed new one. Tell me, is this the norm, or is it some other defect? I also noticed that the intensity of the squeak depends on the LED. However, in the beginning, the sound starts, then the light comes on.

 

On a new device, the turbine relay usually does not break. But squeak - this is completely normal.

 

I have a boiler Fondital Victoria Compact. It has a closed combustion chamber, a room thermostat is installed. In operation it is already 4 years. During normal operation of the heating system, the thermometer on the handle shows 90 degrees. Recently, the device broke down, namely, it does not heat the water supplied for heating to the set temperature. If you believe a non-contact thermometer, the heating pipe heats up no more than 70 degrees. Although, according to the settings, it must be at least 78 degrees. It seems to me that the temperature sensor of the heating system has broken down. In this case, when the unit is operating on the hot water, heating the water and goes as expected. I found in the instructions table, which indicates the resistance of the sensors. Here there are several columns, and I do not understand which one to look at. Tell me please.

 

To test your assumption, try changing the sensors in some places. When measuring the resistance, you should know that it should have a temperature sensor of 3026 Ohm, this is at 60 degrees. If the temperature is 64 degrees, then the resistance is already 2674 ohms. This can all be measured without analyzing the sensor. I do it this way. It is necessary to turn off the boiler so that there is no circulation. And then it is required to measure the temperature in the heat exchanger and the resistance. And you can remove the sensor, or swap it with some other one. At the same time it is desirable to clean it from the scum, it is quite possible that this is the problem. Re-install very carefully, because it is very fragile.


With my gas boiler, the Victoria Compact 24, there were no problems until I decided to clean it. Disconnected from the network, and vacuumed. After that, I could not start it. When I try to turn on the device the green LED goes out and the yellow light starts to glow. And why did I touch him? And I found a fallen off contact. As it seems to me it is a flue gas thermostat. Tried to put it in place, but without success. Could this be the problem?

 

Remove the panel and alternately check all contacts. Perhaps, somewhere the contacts have moved away.

 

When the boiler Fondital Victoria appeared strange claps in the furnace. It seems to me that this is due to the fact that a lubricant from the ball valve has somehow got into the gas distribution system. If I'm wrong, tell me in what direction should I solve the problem?

 

Perform full maintenance of the boiler.

 

The gas boiler Fondital is installed. Recently, when turned on, it began to show the error "faulty hot water temperature sensor". After the error is displayed, the boiler still works for a while, but then it turns off, while the error on the display is that the temperature is too high. How can I repair the device?

 

First check the temperature sensor. If it is functional, then most likely you have problems with the heat exchanger, and you will have to buy and install a new one.

 

The work of my wall-mounted gas boiler Victoria 24 had problems. When he tries to kindle, clicks are heard, and two lamps blink in different colors. After 5 minutes of this work, everything starts working as expected, and this continues indefinitely. After that, the device turns off, and the red lamp starts shining. After restarting, the problem is repeated in the same order. Of the repairs carried out on the boiler were as follows. Replacing the board 4 years ago, replacement of the traction sensor 6 months ago. The unit is connected via a stabilizer, in operation for 7 years. What could it be?

 

You should contact the service organization.


For 3 years I use the gas boiler Fondital Compact. There were no problems with him until recently. And now the red LED, located at the bottom, began to light up. The reboot solves the problem for a while, but then the device goes off again. The apartment is cooling down, there is no heating. He called several different specialists, but no one came up with how to solve the problem. After they leave the device works for a maximum of a couple of hours and switches off again. Tell me, what should I do?

 

Check the gas pressure switch.

 

Tell me, please, how to pump the expansion tank? I can not find the nipple through which this process is carried out.

 

The spool is located on the back of the appliance. In order to be able to work with it, you need to unscrew the three screws. Two of which hold the dashboard, and the third holds the tank itself. Even for work, it is necessary to remove the contact wire from the spark plug. After that, the expansion tank can be safely removed. It is important not to forget to remove the hose of the heating system. I had a similar problem, and I just changed the valve to a new one, as it let in air. But if the problem is in the pear, then it is not repaired. It will be necessary to buy a new tank.
