Quick answer

Bosch Condens 4300iW code 810 means the hot water stays cold. Check the hot water setting, carry out the reset the user manual allows and wait; if the code persists, have the valves and cylinder connection checked.

Safety first

Stop and check this first

  • If you smell gas while code 810 is showing, do not touch switches or plugs, avoid flames and sparks, close the gas valve, open windows, leave the home and call the gas supplier and service company from outside.
  • Do not dismantle valves or cylinder connections to clear 810; cold hot water points to a circuit that a technician must inspect.

Safe checks you can perform

  • Photograph 810 and the appliance details
  • Check the hot water setting
  • Reset and wait
  • Technical check of the hot water circuit

Leave these tasks to a qualified professional

  • Do not attempt this professional task: Check the 3-way valve
  • Do not attempt this professional task: Check DHW valves and cylinder connection

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. Check the 3-way valve

    What they doAn authorised technician verifies that the 3-way valve switches to the cylinder on a hot water demand and replaces it if it does not respond.

    They must show youthe valve switching during a hot water demand.

    In writingthe 3-way valve condition and whether it was replaced for 810.

  2. Check DHW valves and cylinder connection

    What they doThe technician checks the domestic hot water valves and confirms the cylinder is connected as Bosch specifies.

    They must show youvalve positions and the cylinder connections.

    In writingwhich valve or connection was corrected and the cylinder heat-up result.

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. Photograph 810 and the appliance details

    No special tools

    Who:
    you, from the Condens 4300iW panel.
    How:
    note the 810 shown with the fault symbol and copy the appliance designation and serial number from the panel rating plate, as the user manual asks.
    What matters: the service company receiving 810 together with your Condens 4300iW details.
    If the code persists:
    if 810 is still displayed, move on to checking the hot water setting.
    If it has cleared:
    if 810 has cleared, keep the photo in case the water runs cold again.
    Evidence to keep:
    photo of 810 and the rating plate.

  2. Check the hot water setting

    No special tools

    Who:
    you, using the hot water key.
    How:
    check the set hot water temperature and whether eco mode is active, as described in the hot water section of the Condens 4300iW user manual.
    What matters: ruling out a low setting before blaming a part for 810.
    If the code persists:
    if the setting is correct and 810 continues, go on to the reset the manual allows.
    If it has cleared:
    if the setting was wrong and the water heats without 810, note the change you made.
    Evidence to keep:
    photo of the configured hot water temperature with 810 visible.

  3. Reset and wait

    No special tools

    Who:
    you, following the fault clearing section.
    How:
    switch the boiler off and on again, or press both arrow keys together until the fault symbols disappear; the technical table for 810 then says to wait 24 hours.
    What matters: seeing whether the Condens 4300iW heats the cylinder again after the reset.
    If the code persists:
    if 810 returns or the water is still cold after that period, call the service company with the code.
    If it has cleared:
    if hot water returns without 810, mention the episode at the annual service.
    Evidence to keep:
    time of the reset and hot water condition a day after 810.

  4. Technical check of the hot water circuit

    Tools required

    Who:
    authorised heating and gas technician.
    How:
    checks the DHW valves, 3-way valve operation and the cylinder connection, following the table for 810 in the installation manual.
    What matters: identifying what stops the Condens 4300iW from heating the cylinder.
    If the code persists:
    the technician should replace or correct the affected item and verify a full cylinder heat-up.
    If it has cleared:
    ask for the check to be recorded even if 810 does not recur during the visit.
    Evidence to keep:
    job sheet with the valve or connection checked for 810.

    Removing the 3-way valve or cylinder connections on the Condens 4300iW is technician work.

What it means

In the Condens 4300iW fault table, 810 means the hot water stays cold. Bosch proposes resetting the appliance and waiting 24 hours, checking the DHW valves, checking the 3-way valve and replacing it if necessary, and confirming the cylinder is correctly connected. Unlike 811, it does not concern thermal disinfection: it covers stored water that does not heat up at all.

Symptoms and causes

Probable causes · in order

  • 3-way valve not switchingPossible

    Bosch lists checking the 3-way valve and replacing it if necessary, because it diverts boiler heat to the hot water cylinder.

  • Domestic hot water valvesPossible

    The table for 810 calls for checking the DHW valves in the installation, whose position or condition can stop the water from heating.

  • Cylinder not connected correctlyPossible

    The manufacturer includes confirming that the hot water cylinder is correctly connected to the boiler as part of the remedy for 810.
