Baxi Error Code E119: Low Pressure Explained
Error code E119 on a Baxi gas boiler is a warning that the system’s pressure has dropped below the boiler operating level which is generally around 0.7 bar of pressure. When the pressure drops below 0.7 bar the low pressure sensor will trigger the error E119
Causes of Low Water Pressure in your Baxi Gas Boiler
Low pressure can occur due to several reasons, such as:
Water Leakage: A common cause of low pressure is water leakage within the system. Leaks in the pipes, radiators, or even the boiler itself can result in pressure loss.
Bleeding Radiators: If air accumulates within the radiators, it can displace water and reduce pressure.
System Draining: If the system has been drained for maintenance purposes and not refilled properly.
Expansion Vessel: The expansion vessel is responsible for maintaining stable pressure by allowing the expansion of water when heated. If it’s faulty or not properly charged this can lead tolow pressure.
Troubleshooting Steps
Visually check the central heating system: radiators, and pipes for any visible signs of water leakage. If a leak is detected, it should be repaired immediately.
Bleeding the radiators: If the issue is due to trapped air, bleeding the radiators will reduce system pressure. Start from the lowest point and work your way up and fill your system up.
Expansion Vessel Inspection: If the expansion vessel is causing the low pressure, a Gas Safe Registered will need to carry out thistype of work.
Regular Boiler Servicing: To prevent recurrence, schedule regular maintenance checks to ensure that your boiler is functioning optimally and efficiently.
