Quick answer

Domusa E06 means a burner lockout on the Avanttia NG: ignition failed because of a fault in the burner or the gas installation. Check that the gas valve is open and press RESET once. If it happens again, switch the boiler off and call the service technician.

Safety first

Stop and check this first

  • If you smell gas: Domusa says do not smoke, light flames or cause sparks, do not operate switches or electrical appliances, open doors and windows, close the main gas valve, switch the heating off, keep people out of the area and tell your gas company, following the instructions next to the meter. Call from outside the home.
  • If you smell combustion fumes: Domusa says switch the heating off, ventilate the room, close doors so the gas does not spread to other rooms and do not operate switches or electrical appliances. Carbon monoxide has no smell: if you feel headache, dizziness or nausea, get out and call for help. A CO alarm helps.

Safe checks you can perform

  • Gas or flue gas smell near the boiler
  • Gas shut-off valve open
  • One RESET
  • Propane tank recently filled
  • Gas, burner and combustion by the service technician

Leave these tasks to a qualified professional

  • Do not attempt this professional task: Gas pressure and flow
  • Do not attempt this professional task: Burner cleaning and check
  • Do not attempt this professional task: Ignition cycles and tightness

What a technician must be able to justify

Technician visit

These are the steps they must carry out and show you. Tick them as they work: if steps are skipped, do not accept a part swap.

These are not instructions for opening or handling the equipment yourself. They are the checks that should support a technical conclusion.

  1. Gas pressure and flow

    What they doMeasures the gas supply pressure and flow and compares them with the data sheet (20 mbar on G20, 37 mbar on G31).

    They must show youthe pressure measured against the data sheet.

    In writingthe value and what was corrected.

  2. Burner cleaning and check

    What they doChecks and cleans the burner and combustion chamber with a soft brush or compressed air, without chemicals, as the maintenance section says.

    They must show youthe burner's condition.

    In writingwhat was cleaned or replaced.

  3. Ignition cycles and tightness

    What they doAfter the work, runs several ignition cycles checking every component and checks the gas and water circuits for leaks.

    They must show youseveral correct ignitions.

    In writingthe test done and the tightness check.

Before accepting a part or repair

Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.

Follow these steps

Note: Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.

  1. Gas or flue gas smell near the boiler

    No special tools

    Who:
    you.
    How:
    walk up without pressing switches or turning lights on and notice whether there is a smell of gas or combustion fumes.
    Result that matters:
    whether there is a smell or not.
    If there is a smell:
    do not touch the boiler and follow the gas warning on this page.
    If there is no smell:
    go on to check the gas valve.
    Evidence to keep:
    the time and what you noticed.

  2. Gas shut-off valve open

    No special tools

    Who:
    you.
    How:
    check that the gas shut-off valve before the boiler is open and, if you have another gas appliance, whether it works.
    Result that matters:
    whether gas is reaching the home.
    If the valve was closed:
    open it and go to the reset.
    If the other appliance does not work either:
    the problem is the supply; tell your gas company.
    Evidence to keep:
    a photo of the valve and of the display showing E06.

  3. One RESET

    No special tools

    Who:
    you.
    How:
    press the RESET button once, as the manual says, and watch whether the boiler lights.
    Result that matters:
    whether it starts or E06 returns.
    If it returns:
    Domusa says that if the lockout repeats, switch the boiler off and call the official service.
    If it starts:
    note the time in case it returns.
    Evidence to keep:
    the reset time and what happened next.

    Evidence: Domusa Teknik Avanttia NG, guía rápida de funcionamiento para el usuario (CDOC001923)

  4. Propane tank recently filled

    No special tools

    Who:
    you, if the boiler runs on propane.
    How:
    think whether the tank was filled or installed recently.
    Result that matters:
    whether the fault started after a fill or a new installation.
    If it matches:
    Domusa says to contact the person responsible for filling the tank first so they purge it.
    If the boiler runs on natural gas:
    skip this step.
    Evidence to keep:
    the date of the last tank fill.

  5. Gas, burner and combustion by the service technician

    Tools required

    Who:
    Domusa official service technician.
    How:
    measures the gas supply pressure, checks and cleans the burner, checks the gas valve and runs several ignition cycles.
    Result that matters:
    whether the gas, the burner or the control is failing.
    If the gas pressure is low:
    corrects the installation or contacts the gas distributor.
    If the gas arrives correctly:
    the burner and ignition become the suspects.
    Evidence to keep:
    a report with the measured pressure and what was adjusted.

    Domusa reserves boiler servicing for staff authorised by the manufacturer. Inside are the burner, the gas valve and mains voltage parts.

What it means

On the Domusa Avanttia NG, E06 is an ignition failure. The boiler stops the burner and no longer heats the system. Domusa puts it down to any fault in the burner or in the fuel installation, and it is unlocked by pressing RESET. If the lockout repeats, the manufacturer says to switch the boiler off and call the official service. With propane, Domusa warns that ignition problems can occur if the tank has not been properly purged. The same table has related codes: E41 flame fault after 6 ignitions, E81 first ignition attempt failed and E84 gas inlet pressure.

Warnings and stop conditions

  • Criticaleditorial warning

    If you smell gas: Domusa says do not smoke, light flames or cause sparks, do not operate switches or electrical appliances, open doors and windows, close the main gas valve, switch the heating off, keep people out of the area and tell your gas company, following the instructions next to the meter. Call from outside the home.

  • Higheditorial warning

    If you smell combustion fumes: Domusa says switch the heating off, ventilate the room, close doors so the gas does not spread to other rooms and do not operate switches or electrical appliances. Carbon monoxide has no smell: if you feel headache, dizziness or nausea, get out and call for help. A CO alarm helps.

Symptoms and causes

Probable causes · in order

  • Gas not reaching the boiler properlyCommon

    Domusa names faults in the fuel installation. A closed shut-off valve, a supply cut or low inlet pressure stop the flame from forming.

    Evidence: Domusa Teknik Avanttia NG, instrucciones de instalación y funcionamiento (CDOC001924) · Domusa Teknik Avanttia NG, guía rápida de funcionamiento para el usuario (CDOC001923)

  • Propane tank not purgedPossible

    With propane, Domusa warns of ignition problems if the tank has not been purged of air and says to contact the person who fills it first.

    Evidence: Domusa Teknik Avanttia NG, guía rápida de funcionamiento para el usuario (CDOC001923)

  • Burner faultPossible

    The other branch Domusa gives is the burner itself. Its cleaning, the gas valve and combustion are checked only by the service technician, with the boiler open.
