Common faults
Common Baxi fault codes
The codes we see most. Codes vary by model, so check your manual. Never open the boiler’s casing: only a Gas Safe engineer should work inside it.
E119: low water pressure
Pressure is too low for the boiler to run. Usually a leak, relief valve or expansion vessel problem.
Try first: Top up to about 1.5 bar using the filling loop, following the manual.
E125: circulation fault
Water isn’t moving round the system properly: a pump fault, sludge, an airlock or closed valves.
Try first: Check radiator valves are open and bleed any cold radiators.
About Baxi boilers
Baxi boilers we repair
Baxi also made many of the back boilers still in Croydon’s 1930s semis (the Baxi Bermuda). Those are a different story: parts are scarce and replacement is usually the better route. See our page on back boiler conversions.
Boiler still under the manufacturer’s warranty? Contact Baxi first, as warranty repairs are usually done by their own engineers. Out of warranty, or they can’t help? That’s where we come in. If the repair isn’t worth it on an older boiler, we’ll say so and price a replacement instead.

FAQ
Baxi repair questions
Is my Baxi still under warranty?
Baxi warranties depend on the model and need an annual service to stay valid. If it might be covered, contact Baxi first.
Can you repair a Baxi Bermuda back boiler?
Sometimes, if the part is still available. Many aren’t any more, and the boilers are often 30 or more years old. We’ll tell you honestly whether a repair is worth it, or whether a combi conversion makes more sense.
What does the fault code on my boiler mean?
Codes vary between models and even between versions of the same model, so check the manual for yours. Put the code in our quote form and the engineer will know what to bring.
