### Is it safe to reset my Vaillant boiler myself?
Yes, resetting a Vaillant boiler is generally safe for homeowners to do themselves. The reset function is designed to be user-accessible. However, if you’re uncomfortable with the process or if your boiler repeatedly requires resetting, it’s best to contact a Gas Safe registered engineer.
### How often should I need to reset my Vaillant boiler?
A properly functioning Vaillant boiler should rarely need resetting. If you find yourself needing to reset your boiler more than once or twice a month, this indicates an underlying issue that requires professional attention.
### Will resetting my boiler clear all error codes?
Resetting will clear many common error codes and allow the boiler to attempt normal operation again. However, if the underlying issue hasn’t been resolved, the error code may reappear shortly after resetting.
### Can I reset my Vaillant boiler if it’s under warranty?
Yes, resetting your boiler will not void the warranty. However, if you suspect a serious fault, it’s advisable to contact Vaillant or your installer before attempting multiple resets, as continued operation with a fault could potentially cause damage.
