F.22Low water pressure in the system

This code applies to Energy, Energy7, Ultimate3, Sustain, Betacom4. Fault codes narrow down the likely problem, but they do not replace a model-specific diagnosis.

What you can safely check

  1. Check the pressure gauge with the system cold.
  2. If it is below the range stated in the boiler manual, repressurise only by following that model's user instructions.
  3. Stop and book an engineer if pressure drops again, rises excessively, or there is a visible leak.

How an engineer may fix it

Check for leaks, trapped air, the pressure sensor, pump and expansion vessel; repair the underlying fault before recommissioning.

Glow-worm presents these as a general current-code guide; verify applicability in the exact appliance manual.
