What should I do if the wall-hung boiler no longer produces hot water? Summary of popular solutions across the network
Recently, many users have reported on social platforms and home forums that wall-mounted boilers suddenly fail to produce hot water, especially when the temperature drops sharply. This article will combine hot discussions and expert advice from the entire network in the past 10 days to provide you with structured solutions to help quickly troubleshoot and fix problems.
1. Common causes and corresponding solutions

| Cause of problem | solution | Operation difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Water pressure is too low | Check the wall-mounted boiler pressure gauge. If it is lower than 1Bar, add water to about 1.5Bar. | ★☆☆☆☆ (simple) |
| Gas supply interruption | Confirm whether the gas valve is open and whether the gas meter balance is sufficient | ★☆☆☆☆ (simple) |
| Ignition electrode failure | Clean the electrode or contact a professional to replace it | ★★★☆☆ (requires professional tools) |
| Heat exchanger clogged | Use professional cleaning agents to rinse or disassemble the machine for cleaning | ★★★★☆ (Professional repair recommended) |
| Temperature sensor failure | Use a multimeter to check the resistance value and replace the sensor if abnormal. | ★★★☆☆ (requires basic skills) |
2. Top 5 recent frequently asked questions among netizens
| Problem description | frequency of occurrence | typical brand |
|---|---|---|
| Hot and cold water | 38% | Weineng, Bosch |
| Display error E1/E5 | 25% | Linnei, Macro |
| Water pump is not running | 18% | Viessmann, Ariston |
| Automatic flameout after burning | 12% | Little squirrel, Haier |
| Abnormal noise from the fan | 7% | Wanhe and Midea |
3. Step-by-step self-check guide
1.basic check: Confirm that the power indicator light of the wall-hung boiler is on, the gas valve is open, and the water pressure gauge displays between 1-2Bar.
2.Restart testing: Turn off the power, wait for 5 minutes, then restart, and observe whether it returns to normal (recently, 30% of users use this method to solve temporary faults).
3.Distinguish location by listening to sounds: Pay attention to the ignition sound when starting (there should be a "click" sound). If there is no sound, it may be an igniter failure; if there is a burning sound but no hot water, it may be a waterway problem.
4.Observe error reports: Record the error code on the display screen (such as E1 indicating ignition failure), and refer to the manual or the brand customer service hotline to check.
4. Maintenance cost reference
| Maintenance items | Material fee (yuan) | Labor cost (yuan) |
|---|---|---|
| Replace temperature sensor | 80-150 | 100-200 |
| Clean heat exchanger | 50-100 (cleaning agent) | 200-300 |
| Replace water pump | 400-800 | 150-250 |
| Motherboard repair | 300-600 | 200-400 |
5. Suggestions on preventive measures
• Check the water pressure gauge every month to keep the pressure around 1.5Bar
• Ask professionals to perform comprehensive maintenance every 2 years (can reduce sudden failures by 60%)
• Keep the power on when not in use for a long time in winter to prevent frost cracking
• Install a water filter (especially suitable for areas with hard water)
If the above methods still cannot solve the problem, it is recommended to contact the brand’s after-sales or professional maintenance personnel. According to feedback from netizens, brands such as Vaillant and Bosch provide 24-hour emergency service hotlines with faster response times.
