Learn about Braemar Error Code 06, its meaning, causes, and solutions for flame roll-out detection issues.
Error Code 06 indicates a flame roll-out detection issue, which can be caused by improper venting or a malfunctioning flame sensor.
To troubleshoot, check the venting system for blockages and inspect the flame sensor for proper operation.
Error 06 is triggered when the inverter detects conditions indicative of flame rollout, which can compromise safety. This condition may arise from a failure in the combustion chamber, leading to improper venting of exhaust gases. The inverter relies on sensors to monitor the combustion process; if these sensors detect abnormal temperatures or pressures, the system will automatically shut down to prevent hazardous situations. The logic behind this fault detection is rooted in safety protocols, ensuring that any potential gas leaks or combustion inefficiencies are promptly addressed.
When the Braemar system detects a fault, the LED indicator may flash a specific pattern, typically associated with Error 06. Homeowners may notice a drop in heating efficiency, accompanied by alerts on the monitoring application indicating a flame rollout condition. Additionally, the unit may exhibit unusual noises during operation or fail to ignite altogether, leading to a complete halt in heating functionality.
Always ensure that any troubleshooting or repair work is performed by a licensed electrician or certified solar installer to maintain safety and compliance with local codes.
To avoid future occurrences of Error 06, regular maintenance is crucial. Schedule annual inspections of the flue and combustion system to ensure they are free from obstructions. Additionally, routinely test the limit switch and gas pressure levels to confirm they remain within operational parameters. Keeping the electrical connections secure and free from corrosion will also help prevent intermittent faults.
