Ideal Logic F2 Fault - Things to check

At Your Boiler Experts, we frequently address calls concerning Ideal Logic Boilers displaying an F2 fault. While many solutions to this issue necessitate a qualified, Gas Safe registered engineer, there are essential checks you can perform yourself. Let's explore what the F2 fault indicates and what you can inspect.

Understanding the F2 Fault: The F2 code, sometimes appearing as FN or LN, signals that your boiler has unexpectedly lost its flame. This can happen for several reasons:

  1. Gas Supply Check: Ensure your gas supply is active. Verify other gas appliances in your home to confirm the supply. For those using a token/prepayment meter, ensure it has credit and is turned on.
  2. Flue Inspection: A blocked or damaged flue can cause this issue. Examine your flue for any blockages or signs of damage.
  3. Condensate Pipe Blockage: The white condensate pipe running from your boiler may be obstructed. If it exits outdoors, ensure it's free from blockages and, in cold weather, confirm it's not frozen. In new build homes, this pipe often connects to the sink waste, where silt and food debris can cause blockages.

For Residents of Leeds and Wakefield: If these checks don’t resolve the issue, or if you're unsure about undertaking them yourself, our Leeds-based team at Your Boiler Experts is here to help. Specializing in boiler installation, repair, we’re just a call away.
