Why is my Alpha boiler not working?
Rachel Hickman Why is my Alpha boiler not working?
For a simple reset, Alpha recommend rotating the switch on the front of the boiler to position 3 (reset sequence). After 25-30 seconds the boiler will attempt to restart. If the burner still won’t light, there’s a good chance it’s blocked with debris. Get a Gas Safe engineer to inspect and clean the burner.
How do you reset the pressure on a Alpha boiler?
You just need to reset your boiler by rotating the front selector switch to the reset position. Leave it for 25 to 30 seconds, and your boiler will restart the flame.
Are Alpha Boilers reliable?
Alpha boilers are a fantastic budget-friendly option offering reliability and an impressive 10-year warranty. Overall, Alpha boilers are one of the best boiler brands and a wise choice for anyone looking for a reliable and affordable heating solution for their home and especially for those on a budget.
What pressure should my Alpha boiler be at?
When the boiler pressure drops to around 0.6bar on the pressure gauge, your Alpha boiler will fail to operate.
How does the Alpha Intec 30c boiler work?
The burner is lit electronically and the heat output is controlled by a modulating fan and gas valve.

What happens when the diverter valve on an alpha boiler gets stuck?
The diverter valve directs hot water to either the central heating or hot water taps, depending on which you want at the time. From time to time, especially when it comes to older boilers, the diverter valve can get stuck, meaning that all the hot water is sent to the central heating rather than the taps.
