Common Glow-worm boiler problems
If the pressure gauge on your Glow-worm boiler is showing anything below 1 bar then you may have an issue which can lead to your central heating system not functioning as well as it should. Over time, boilers will gradually lose pressure but a sudden drop could mean there’s a fault somewhere in the system, commonly a leak.
Increasing low boiler pressure
If you spot a leak around the heating system, turn off the water supply and contact a Gas Safe registered engineer, likewise if there’s been a sudden drop in pressure. For any gradual decreases in boiler pressure, it’s possible to repressurise the system yourself by following the steps in our guide to low boiler pressure . If you don’t feel safe doing this or aren’t overly sure about what today, contact a heating engineer to do it for you.
Once the pressure is back up to around 1.5 bar, your Glow-worm boiler should have sufficient pressure to work again. Increase the pressure too much (above 2 bar) and you’ll then have a problem with high boiler pressure, which could damage the unit.
If F16 displays on your boiler, there's a flame detection fault with your boiler.
Turning the hot water tap calls the printed circuit board (PCB) into action, telling the burner to fire up so that the water can be heated, which involves the gas valve supplying sufficient fuel. When the F16 error code appears, there’s an issue preventing this process form happening – either the flame isn’t present or the PCB is failing to detect the flame.
How to fix the F16 error code
Never attempt to fix the F16 error code on a Glow-worm boiler yourself, always hire a Gas Safe registered engineer. There are many potential issues that they will look into, diagnose and be able to repair:
Flame sensor damage
Faulty PCB
Blockage in the burner jet
Gas valve issues
Blocked flue or condensate pipe
There are many potential reasons why there's no heating or hot water in your home, including broken diaphragms and airlocks, failure of motorised valves, issues with the thermostat or low water levels.
How to get the heating and hot water back on
Start out by checking if the boiler pressure is too low (below 1bar) and that the temperature is set high enough for the heating to come on. In addition to these, if you’re on a prepayment meter then it’s worth making sure that you have enough credit.
Should you go through these and not see any problems, it’s time to contact a Gas Safe registered engineer as there’s likely to be an issue within the unit.
A condensate pipe on condensing boilers transports the acidic water, caused by waste gas, away from the boiler. This usually runs outside into a drain so in the colder months being outside can lead to it freezing over.
Thawing a frozen condensate pipe
Thawing out a frozen condensate pipe is something you can do yourself without the need for a fully-qualified heating engineer, in fact, you can find out how to do it using our guide to thawing a frozen condensate pipe . While this is something you can do yourself, don’t feel like you have to do it, if you feel the slightest bit unsure or unsafe, don’t hesitate to contact a Gas Safe registered engineer.
Any strange noises you're hearing could be caused by a variety of things including air in the system, alternatively the water pressure could be too low or it's kettling. You might be able to determine the type of problem your boiler is having based on the type of noise it is making. Take a look at our guide to central heating noises to help you determine the cause of your noisy boiler.
The printed circuit board (PCB) is effectively the ‘brain’ of modern boilers as it sends and receives signals from all the electrical components within the unit. A faulty, broken or unconfigured PCB will prevent your Glow-worm boiler from working properly.
How to fix a faulty PCB
An issue with the PCB is commonly seen after a new one has been fitted due to the incorrect model being installed or it being unconfigured. In the case that one of these is the problem, a heating engineer will be able to safely replace or configure the PCB.
However, if the PCB is broken then a new one will have to be fitted, which can come at a fairly large expense, so you might want to consider a new boiler. Especially because an issue with the PCB can bring to light issue with other electrical components, such as the pump and fan.

Glow-worm boiler warranty
Glow-worm boilers come with 2-7 years of warranty as standard but some models are eligible for up to 15 years of warranty through Glow-worm's club energy installers. Find out more with our guide to Glow-worm warranties . Keeping the warranty valid means arranging for an annual service of your Glow-worm boiler that will also ensure the safe and efficient running of the unit.
Boiler insurance and ongoing cover
If your boiler warranty has ended or will be coming to an end soon, it might be worth considering boiler insurance.

Super efficient in finding 3 local firms to quote. All 3 got in touch the same day to arrange appointments and all 3 came within the next day. Great to be able to compare products and prices and I signed up with the best for me straight away

Obtained names of 3 installers in my area, all of whom responded and visited very promptly. All 3 very professional, polite and gave estimates at time of visit, followed up by e-mailed quotes. Also answered my questions at time of visit and subsequently via e-mail. Found Boiler Guide very helpful in reducing time that might have been wasted trawling through local lists.

Boiler Guide phoned me as soon as I had entered my details. Within a few minutes, 3 very professional companies called me and arranged to survey the same day. By the evening I had received 3 quotes to replace my boiler. I was very impressed with the service I received from both Boiler guide and their appointed gas specialists.

Having had an issue with my existing 18 year old boiler. I found the Boiler Guide online. Excellent and quick service, plus excellent customer services. They contacted me to find out what I was looking for and then informed me that three quotations would be in touch. They also supplied the details of the companies. They contacted me, next day, to ensure that the selected suppliers had been in touch and either supplied a quotation or were due to visit. Takes all the hassle away!

Excellent. A rep called almost immediately after my enquiry. She was pleasant, helpful and this was a bank holiday. 3 engineers called really quickly so this platform is a superb service that takes the faff out of looking for heating engineers.
