Elco fault code 24
Fault code 24 on an Elco boiler (including Rendamax) means: Incorrect minimum fan speed. Reset the appliance once. If the code comes back, a part is usually faulty. You can check the water pressure and settings yourself; leave work on gas-carrying parts to a certified gas engineer.

Fixing fault code 24: step by step
- Check outside that the air intake and flue are clear (leaves, a nest, ice or snow).
- Reset the appliance once. If the code comes straight back, do not keep resetting it.
- If the fan does not start, or makes a loud or grinding noise, it is usually faulty. Replacing it means working on the sealed section: leave that to a qualified heating engineer.
