Common NTI Faults We Repair in Bowen Island
NTI reports problems through lockout and hold codes shown on the boiler control display. These are the faults our technicians diagnose most often on Bowen Island service calls:
- Ignition Lockout
The burner fails to light after repeated attempts and the control locks out. Common root causes: a worn igniter or flame-sensing electrode, low gas inlet pressure under load, or a gas valve drifting out of spec. The most frequent NTI no-heat call we attend in Metro Vancouver.
- Low Water Pressure Lockout
NTI controls hold or lock out when system pressure drops below the safe threshold. A slow leak at a fitting, radiator valve, or expansion tank is usually behind gradual pressure loss — repressurizing without finding the leak only masks the fault.
- Blocked Condensate / Drain Faults
Condensing operation produces acidic condensate that must drain freely. Blocked traps and frozen exterior drain lines are common during Lower Mainland cold snaps and shut the boiler down as a safety measure.
- Flame Signal / Sensing Faults
A degraded flame-sensing electrode or poor burner grounding causes the control to lose flame proof mid-cycle, producing short-cycling and intermittent heat. Cleaning or replacing the electrode and verifying combustion restores stable operation.
- Circulator / Flow Faults
Restricted system flow — a seized circulator, air-locked loop, or closed zone valve — causes rapid temperature rise and overtemp protection trips. Requires flow diagnosis rather than repeated resets.
