Alpha boiler flashing red light

Hello Guys,

My two years old Alpha boiler is flashing red light since last night. Due to this, the boiler has stopped working. What could be a reason behind this red light? Is something serious? Someone, please help.

Thanks for your kind advise

Hi George, the most common issue in the Alpha boiler is the red light flashing on the boiler’s display. In your case, red light means that the boiler’s burner is faulty & failed to light up. You can try to fix it at home, as Alpha suggest rotating a switch which you can see on the front side of your Alpha boiler to the position 3. Approximately, after 20-25 seconds, your boiler will try to restart. In case, burner will not light up after restarting the boiler then, the burner is blocked or chocked with debris. I would advise calling a qualified boiler engineer for detailed examination.
