Heat Link not working

Mocurtis1 — Mon, 07 Feb 2022 22:03:21 GMT

I have a Nest learning thermostat. The Heat Link has just stopped working. I have tried holding in the button for a period of time to see if it would restart. It doesn’t. It is only 18 months old, and I still have the receipt from where it was bought. At this moment in time, we have no heating in the house from the Vailant combi boiler.

I can’t find a way to get any heating without the Heat Link working.

Is it possible to get a new replacement Heat Link under the two year guarantee please ASAP ?

I look forward to hearing back.

Maurice Curtis

Thanks

Hi there @Mocurtis1

Thanks for letting us know.

Could you tell me please when did the situation start occurring first and when was the thermostat installed?

Also, please answer to the following questions:

Are there any lights on the Heat Link? Does the boiler activate when calling for heat by pressing the Heat Link's button to activate Manual Mode?
Are you seeing any wiring report or error on the thermostat and/or the app?
Have you had any recent power cuts in your area? If yes, has the power been restored?
Have you recently had service or maintenance on your electrical, plumbing, or heating system?
If yes, how long was the power off for? (Be specific.)
Could you tell us please if you've checked on the breaker switch and fuse box?
Any blown fuse in there? Have you tried to turn the breaker switch off and on again? Any difference?
