Viessmann 200 and 222 fault fault E3
Heat transfer too low during calibration
Gas boilerWhat it means
Burner in fault mode due to detailed code 204: heat transfer too low during calibration; temperature limiter caused shutdown
Likely causes
- No boiler water circulation
- Heat transfer too low during calibration
- Temperature limiter caused shutdown
Where to start
- Check boiler water flow
- Ensure adequate heat transfer
- Press reset button R

Safety: Isolate gas and power before you open the case. If you have been into the gas side, do a tightness test, and a combustion and flue check before you hand back. Gas Safe (UK) or RGI (Ireland) work only.
