What does the Glow-worm Easicom E150 fault code mean?
The E150 fault code on the Glow-worm Easicom indicates a water flow fault, which typically means that the boiler is not detecting sufficient water flow through the system. This can lead to overheating and potential damage if not addressed promptly.
Common Causes
- Blocked Filter: A blockage in the system filter can restrict water flow, causing the fault code to trigger.
- Faulty Pump: If the circulation pump is malfunctioning or has failed, it may not be able to circulate water effectively, leading to flow issues.
Can I fix it myself? (DIY)
It is advisable to check the system filter for blockages and clean it if necessary. However, if the issue persists or involves the pump, it is crucial to call a Gas Safe Engineer to avoid any safety risks associated with gas or electrical components.
Estimated Repair Cost (2026 UK Prices)
The estimated repair cost for addressing the E150 fault could range from £150 to £300, depending on whether the issue is a simple filter clean or requires pump replacement, which can be more expensive due to parts and labour.
