What does the Ideal Logic Plus F29 fault code mean?
The F29 fault code on the Ideal Logic Plus indicates a flame detection fault, meaning that the boiler is unable to detect a flame during operation. This can prevent the boiler from functioning properly and may require immediate attention.
Common Causes
- Faulty Flame Sensor: The flame sensor may be dirty or malfunctioning, preventing it from detecting the flame accurately.
- Gas Supply Issues: Insufficient gas supply or pressure can lead to the flame not being established, triggering the fault code.
Can I fix it myself? (DIY)
It is recommended to call a Gas Safe Engineer for any gas or electrical issues, as working on these systems can be dangerous. However, you can check the boiler pressure and reset the boiler if necessary.
Estimated Repair Cost (2026 UK Prices)
The estimated repair cost for resolving an F29 fault could be around £150 to £250, primarily due to the potential need for replacing the flame sensor or addressing gas supply issues.
