ECA Boiler Error Codes: E/F Codes Meaning and Fixes
Independent guide — no official affiliation with the platforms mentioned.
Réponse courte
On ECA boilers, E1/E2 indicate flame loss and overheat, E3 flue/smoke issues, E5-E7 NTC sensor faults; on some models F codes carry similar meanings. The common E1 (no flame) appears with a closed gas valve or ignition fault; the valve check + 1.5 bar pressure + reset trio fixes most cases. Repeated codes point to pump, sensor or gas valve faults and require authorized service.

Solution étape par étape
STEP 01
Identify the code and model
Note the code (E1, E3 etc.) and the boiler model (ECA Confeo Premix, Felis etc.). Search the official ECA support page for a model-specific table; the same code can mean different things across models.
STEP 02
E1/E2 — flame and overheat checks
Is the gas valve open? Is pressure 1-2 bar? Are radiator valves closed? Check all three: open valves, fill low pressure to 1.5 bar via the loop, reset. For E2 opening all valves matters especially; overheat usually comes from a closed circuit.
STEP 03
E3 — flue/smoke error
With E3, inspect the flue first: blockage, icing or strong wind backpressure. On condensing models the condensate drain may be frozen or blocked. If nothing is visible, call service for a pressure switch/hose fault.
STEP 04
E5-E7 — NTC sensor faults
These are not user-fixable; sensors must be replaced. Power-cycling does not help — sensor resistance must be measured and the part replaced. Open an authorized service ticket.
Do not open the boiler casing; due to gas and electrical safety, internal work must be done by authorized service only.
STEP 05
Use reset correctly
Hold reset for 3-5 seconds at once; rapid repeated presses can lock the board. After reset the boiler enters the ignition cycle within 3-7 seconds; if no flame forms the code returns — do not exceed three consecutive resets.
Conseils
- Annual pre-winter maintenance prevents most E codes and keeps warranties valid.
- After a power cut, unplugging the boiler for 1-2 minutes resets some board errors.
- The condensate hose under the boiler can freeze; raising the heat setting does not mask an unprotected outdoor line.

Questions fréquentes
My ECA boiler shows a pressure-drop issue with an E code — what now?
Continuously dropping pressure means the filling loop is not fully closed, the expansion vessel is faulty, or there is a leak. Close the loop fully and monitor; more than one drop in 24 hours warrants service — the E code is secondary here.
Are ECA Premix codes different?
Yes. Confeo Premix and Felis Premix series use a different, more detailed code set; modulation/sensor faults get dedicated codes. The model-specific official table is more accurate than general interpretations.
The boiler gave an E code on first startup — summer mode?
In summer mode only hot water runs; with radiator valves closed and the system long off, a transient code at first ignition is possible. Open valves, check pressure and one reset usually suffices.
