Viessmann FAQ

What does Viessmann Fault Code F4 mean?

F4 indicates ‘No Flame Signal’. The burner has locked out because it didn’t establish a flame. This can be caused by a faulty ignition electrode, a bad ionization electrode, or gas supply issues. A reset might clear it temporarily, but the electrodes likely need inspection or replacement.

What is Viessmann Fault Code F5?

F5 is an air pressure switch or fan fault on older models, or a gas valve issue on newer ones. It means the boiler isn’t getting the correct air/gas mix to fire safely. The fan assembly or air pressure switch usually needs checking by a technician.

Why is my Viessmann boiler making a whistling noise?

Whistling or ‘kettling’ often means the heat exchanger has mineral deposits restricting water flow, or the gas-to-air mixture is out of calibration. It requires a combustion analysis and possibly a heat exchanger flush. Don’t ignore it — scale buildup leads to premature failure.

How do I top up the pressure on my Viessmann Vitodens?

Locate the filling loop — usually two valves with a braided silver hose underneath. Open both valves slowly until the pressure gauge reads 1.0–1.5 bar. Close both valves tightly. Do not exceed 2.0 bar. If you find yourself doing this frequently, there may be a leak or a failing expansion vessel.
