What does error E67 mean on a Keston Qudos boiler?

Error E67 on a Keston Qudos boiler indicates low water pressure below 0.4 bar. Use the filling loop to repressurise the system to approximately 1.2 bar. If pressure drops repeatedly, check for leaks and contact an engineer.

What does error E24 mean on a Keston C36 boiler?

Error E24 on a Keston C36 boiler indicates water pressure has been lost four times in 24 hours, suggesting a possible leak. Check around radiators and pipework for signs of water and contact a heating engineer to locate and repair any leaks.

What is checked during a Keston boiler service?

A Gas Safe engineer will inspect for corrosion and leaks, check the flame burns blue, examine flue terminals and seals, test gas pressure and flow settings, check the expansion vessel pressure, clean the burners, and inspect all key components for wear. The boiler is also tested operationally.

Where do I find the serial number on my Keston boiler?

The serial number on a Keston boiler is typically found on the rating plate, which is usually located inside the front panel or underneath the boiler. The serial number is needed for warranty registration and when ordering spare parts. If you have the original service book, the serial number should also be recorded there.

What is twin flue technology on Keston boilers?

Twin flue technology uses two separate pipes for air intake and exhaust gases, rather than a single concentric flue. This allows the flue to extend up to 27 metres from the boiler, compared to around 10 metres for standard concentric systems. Twin flue is ideal for installations where the boiler cannot be positioned near an external wall, such as basements or internal plant rooms.

What should I do if my Keston boiler does not work after a power cut?

After a power cut, first check that the electrical supply has been restored. Check the system pressure is between 1.0 and 1.5 bar. Press the Restart button on the boiler fascia. You may also need to reset the programmer clock to the correct time. If an error code is displayed or the boiler fails to restart, contact a Gas Safe registered engineer.

How do I adjust the hot water temperature on my Keston combi boiler?

On Keston combi boilers, the domestic hot water temperature is adjusted using the hot water temperature knob on the control panel. The temperature can be set between approximately 40 and 65 degrees Celsius. A setting of 50 to 55 degrees is recommended for safety, as this prevents scalding while being hot enough to prevent bacterial growth.
