What does the Baxi 600 Series E560 fault code mean?
The E560 fault code on the Baxi 600 Series indicates that there is low water pressure in the domestic hot water (DHW) system. This can lead to inadequate hot water supply and may require immediate attention to restore proper function.
Common Causes
- Low System Pressure: The pressure in the heating system may have dropped below the minimum required level, often due to leaks or insufficient water supply.
- Faulty Pressure Relief Valve: A malfunctioning pressure relief valve can cause water to escape, leading to a drop in pressure.
Can I fix it myself? (DIY)
You can attempt to fix the low water pressure by checking the pressure gauge on the boiler and re-pressurising the system using the filling loop if necessary. However, if you are unsure or if the issue persists, it is crucial to call a Gas Safe Engineer to avoid any safety risks.
Estimated Repair Cost (2026 UK Prices)
The estimated repair cost for addressing the E560 fault code is around £150 to £200, primarily for re-pressurising the system and checking for leaks. If a component like the pressure relief valve needs replacement, costs could rise to approximately £300.
