04

Display shows '04' — Flow temperature higher than set

Buderus · Logamax plus GB142 Boiler

What does 04 mean?

This message indicates that the actual flow temperature within the heating system has exceeded the upper limit value you previously set. Although listed as a normal operation message, it may suggest the system is overshooting the target temperature.

Common Causes

  • Space heating water temperature knob set too low or in an unintended range
  • Room controller (e.g. RC35) settings causing a higher demand than desired
  • External factors causing heat input not accounted for by the boiler
