Intergas Boiler Error Code 14

Call a professionalReviewed November 2026Checked against manufacturer documentation
What this code means
14: Flow sensor S1 reads no temperature change while the boiler is operating

With code 14 the measured flow temperature does not change while the boiler is in operation. The boiler first reduces its output and locks out if the reading stays fixed. An installer must check sensor S1 and replace it if needed.

Applies to: Intergas HRE and Kombi Kompakt

Common causes

  1. Faulty flow sensor S1 that keeps giving a fixed value
  2. Loose or damaged wiring of sensor S1

What to check, in order

Safety first. A boiler works with gas, electricity and hot water under pressure. Never open the casing or touch anything inside it. In the Netherlands, work on a gas boiler may only be done by a certified company (CO-vrij). The checks on this page stay on the outside: water pressure, thermostat, radiators and the reset button. If you smell gas, leave the building and call the national gas emergency number 0800-9009 (Netherlands).
  1. Note the code and reset the boiler once.
  2. If the temperature shown on the display stays unchanged while the boiler runs, report this to the installer.
  3. Have an installer check sensor S1 and replace it if needed.

Clear the code and test

  1. Fix what the checks above found first — pressure topped up, a radiator bled, the thermostat set right. Resetting without fixing the cause only brings the code back.
  2. Make sure the boiler has power and the gas tap at the boiler is open.
  3. If the water pressure is below 1.5 bar, top it up to between 1.5 and 2 bar with the filling loop, as your manual shows.
  4. Press the reset button once and watch a full cycle: the boiler should start, heat the radiators or the tap water, and keep running without the code coming back.

When to call a professional

This code usually points to a faulty part, wiring or the control board on a Intergas boiler. Run the checks above to rule out the simple causes, then book a technician — and book one straight away if any of these apply:

  • The code comes back after you have run the checks and a test cycle.
  • You smell burning, see sparks or scorch marks, or the breaker trips.
  • Water is leaking and you cannot stop it.
  • The fix needs panels opened beyond what your manual describes, or a part tested with a meter, and you are not set up for that.

When you call, give the brand, the code 14, your model number (on a label on the type plate, usually at the bottom or on the side of the boiler) and the checks you already ran. It shortens the visit.

Repair or replace?

This fault is in professional territory: the fix usually means a major part or board-level work, and the labour adds up. If your machine is already well into its service life, get the repair quote first, then compare it with the price of a current equivalent model before you decide. Paying a large share of a new machine's price to repair an old one is rarely the better deal; replacing a machine over one cheap fault is wasteful too.

Parts that may be involved

Flow sensor S1

Parts are model-specific. Find your model number first — usually on a label on the type plate, usually at the bottom or on the side of the boiler — and match the part to that number before ordering.

Can I fix Intergas 14 myself?

Only the preliminary checks. Code 14 usually means a part, wiring or the control board has failed, which is a technician job. Run the checks to rule out simple causes before you book.

How do I clear Intergas 14?

Fix what the checks above found first — pressure topped up, a radiator bled, the thermostat set right. Resetting without fixing the cause only brings the code back. Make sure the boiler has power and the gas tap at the boiler is open. If the water pressure is below 1.5 bar, top it up to between 1.5 and 2 bar with the filling loop, as your manual shows.
