Common Burnham Faults We Repair in Richmond
Burnham reports problems through control lockout codes on Alpine/K2; no codes on older cast-iron units. These are the faults our technicians diagnose most often on Richmond service calls:
- Pilot / Thermocouple Failure (cast iron)
The classic old-iron no-heat — among the fastest and cheapest emergency fixes in the trade.
- Ignition Lockout (Alpine/K2)
Electrode wear, gas-supply or valve faults preventing light-off on the condensing lines, logged by the control.
- Low-Water Cutoff Trips
LWCO trips on real low water or sensor fouling — diagnosed before any reset.
- Condensate Faults (Alpine/K2)
Blocked or frozen condensate shutting down condensing operation in cold weather.
- Circulator & Zone Failures
Seized pumps and stuck zone valves leaving rooms cold while the boiler fires normally.
