No (or insufficient) hot water, radiators, convectors, etc. may be heated without current heat requirement.
step 1
Set the operating switch on the boiler DBA control panel to position “0“ (OFF), see box 43, and set the other
DBA control panel operating switch to position “1“ (ON), see box 55.
step 2
Open a hot water tap.
step 3
Check that the hot water pipe directly beneath the (external) storage-type water heater warms up.
step 4
Does the pipe warm up (to approx. 60 °C)?
Yes:
→
step
5
No:
→
step

step 5
The cause of this fault does not lie with the boiler, but with the mains water supply. Check to see if the

Yes:
→
step
13
No:
→
step 13
Place the affected components out of service.
→
step 14
Check
to ensure that the pre-adjusted setting corresponds to the hot water
[60)
to ensure that the DHW temperature is adjusted to a high enough setting, see box 61.
to see if the hot water supply has been shut off by the control system (ModuLink 250 RF).
step 15
