Glow-worm Energy System fault F.22
Safety shutdown: water deficiency in the boiler
Gas boilerWhat it means
Safety shutdown due to insufficient water detected in the boiler
Likely causes
- Water pressure in heating installation dropped below 0.03 MPa (0.3 bar)
- Insufficient filling or leak in heating system
- No or insufficient water in the product
- Water pressure sensor defective
- Cable to the pump or to the water pressure sensor loose/not connected/defective
Where to start
- Check displayed pressure value
- Confirm pressure has fallen below 0.03 MPa (0.3 bar)
- Check fault list for F22

Safety: Isolate gas and power before you open the case. If you have been into the gas side, do a tightness test, and a combustion and flue check before you hand back. Gas Safe (UK) or RGI (Ireland) work only.
