Hi Guys,

I have a Intergas Combi boiler, model Compact HRE 18. It is an old boiler, almost 7 years old, but was always doing fine. At last till today, when we realized that it is making some strange noises (other then normal) when we open the taps. Noise is really loud. Boiler is displaying error message 8, and when I restart it, it works for a half an hour or so, but then again noise starts and the error message appear. Anyone knows what that error message mean and how to fix it?

Hi Joe,

Error 8 means “incorrect fan speed” and in case of 7 year old boiler I would say that it needs replacement. With younger boiler I would suggest checking fan wiring between fan and casing- especially if boiler was serviced in last 2 weeks. Good luck!
