Common Questions
24 totalHow do I reset the boiler after a fault has occurred?
Press the up and down arrow keys simultaneously until the fault symbols H and ! are no longer displayed. The appliance will then start up again and the flow temperature will be displayed. If the fault cannot be eliminated after resetting, contact an Installer/Service Engineer or Worcester, Bosch Group on 0330 123 9339. (Page 14)
How do I re-pressurise the heating system using the external filling loop?
Attach the filling hose to the valve, ensure both ends are hand tight, then turn the isolation valve handles 90° to open them and slowly fill the system to between 1 and 1.5 bar. Once the correct pressure is reached, turn the handles back 90° to close the valves, then remove the hose and replace the blanking cap. You must disconnect the external filling loop after re-pressurisation to comply with Water Authority regulations. (Page 8)
What should I do if the condensate pipe freezes during cold weather?
Locate the blockage, which is likely at the most exposed point outside the building, and thaw it using a hot water bottle, microwaveable heating pack, or a cloth soaked in hot water — do not use boiling water as it can damage plastic pipes. After thawing, reset the appliance and wait two or three minutes for it to restart. If the boiler does not restart, contact Worcester, Bosch Group on 0330 123 9339. (Page 14)
What is the difference between comfort mode and ECO mode for hot water?
In comfort mode, the appliance continuously maintains water at the set temperature, resulting in a shorter wait for hot water but higher gas usage. In ECO mode, the appliance only begins heating water once the hot tap is opened, saving gas but with a slightly longer wait. To set ECO mode, press the eco key until 'eco' appears in the display; press it again to return to comfort mode. (Page 11)
How often should the Greenstar 1000 be serviced, and who should carry it out?
The boiler must be thoroughly serviced at least once a year by a competent, qualified person such as a Worcester service engineer, British Gas engineer, or Gas Safe registered engineer. In the Republic of Ireland, servicing must be carried out by a Worcester service engineer or a Registered Gas Installer (RGII). It is important that any required maintenance or repairs are carried out without delay. (Page 5)
What should I do if I see fault code 2980 on the display?
If fault 2980 is visible on the boiler display, contact a qualified heating engineer immediately and do not attempt to remedy the fault yourself. Heating and hot water will not be available until the fault is remedied by a qualified heating engineer. Attempting to fix it yourself could lead to a serious, safety-related fault. (Page 14)

Refer to figure 3. ▶Unscrew the blanking cap [1]. ▶Attach the hose [2] to the valve. – Usually one end of the hose is already connected to one of the system fill isolation valves. ▶Ensure both ends [3] of the hose are screwed on hand tight. – The system fill isolation valves [4] are in a closed position (the handle/screwdriver slot is across the valve). ▶Turn the handle/screwdriver slot through 90° to open valves and slowly fill the system to between 1 and 1.5bar. – The system fill isolation valves [5] are opened (the handle/ screwdriver slot is in-line with the valve). – The needle on the pressure gauge will start to rise. ▶Turn the handles/screwdriver slots back, through 90°, to close the valves. – The system fill isolation valves [6] are in a closed position (the handle/screwdriver slot is across the valve). ▶Top up the system pressure, if as a result of the air bleeding the pressure drops off. ▶Remove the hose [2] and replace the blanking cap [1]. Fig. 3 External filling loop If the pressure gauge reads more than 1.5 bar as a result of over filling: ▶Bleed one radiator until the pressure gauge returns to between 1 and 1.5 bar. ▶It is good practice to bleed any excess air that has entered the heating system due to pressure loss. Locate and open the radiator's bleed/ vent point, closing the valve when water begins to flow. ▶If, through normal boiler operation, the PRV pipe starts to leak, it could be a sign of system pressure being too high. In this instance please bleed a radiator as described above.
Warning
Risk of damage to the system from corrosion! If the pressure in your heating system is repeatedly rising and you are repeatedly venting radiators, this can indicate that there is corrosion occurring within the heating system. To prevent serious damage to the entire system: ▶Contact a heating engineer. Failure to properly maintain the heating system may affect your warranty. System pressure can be checked via the boiler’s pressure gauge/reading when the system is cold, ensuring the reading is in the green zone at all times.Caution
Caution must be exercised when venting radiators or re-pressurising/ topping up the heating system: ▶Do not vent air from radiators whilst the central heating is switched on. ▶Allow 30 minutes after venting the radiators before using central heating or hot water. ▶Whilst venting radiators, do not allow the pressure to drop below the green zone on the boiler’s pressure gauge/reading. If symptoms persist: ▶Do not repeatedly vent your radiators. ▶Contact a heating engineer. 0010015034-001 1 2 3 4 5 6 Min 1 bar 1.5 bar MaxOperation 9 Greenstar 1000 – 6721835944 (2023/08) 4 Operation These operating instructions describe the operation of the gas-fired condensing boiler.

If a fault cannot be eliminated: ▶Contact an Installer/Service Engineer or Worcester, Bosch Group appointments team on 0330 123 9339. ▶You will need to provide them with the displayed fault code and the following appliance data. – Appliance type and serial number. – Commissioning date. 7.2 Extreme cold weather In certain instances where the condensate pipework is run externally or in an unheated area, such as a garage, the condensate pipework can be at risk of freezing, even if well insulated. A frozen/blocked condensate pipe will cause the boiler to shut down. Worcester, Bosch Group have available helpful videos on thawing frozen condensate pipe work on our website in the Customer Service section.
Warning
Falling hazard! Failure to follow this guidance may result in personal injury. ▶Only attempt to thaw a condensate pipe that is at ground level and easily accessible. ▶Never attempt to thaw a condensate pipe that is at height.Caution
Risk of damage to pipe work! Thermal shock from boiling water can damage plastic pipes. ▶DO NOT use boiling water to thaw the condensate pipe!Caution
Slip hazard ▶Ensure that the subsequent freezing of any water does not result in a slip hazard. If the condensate pipe has frozen: ▶Locate the blockage. – It is likely that the pipe is frozen at the most exposed point outside the building or where there is an obstruction to flow. This could be the open end of the pipe, at a bend or elbow, or where there is a sag in the pipe in which condensate can collect. – The location of the blockage should be identified as closely as possible before taking further action. ▶Thaw the frozen pipe. – The pipe can be thawed by applying a hot water bottle, a microwaveable heating pack (the sort used for muscular aches and pains) or a cloth soaked in hot water to the exterior of the pipe, close to the point of blockage. – Hot water, but not boiling, can also be poured onto the pipe from a watering can or similar container. – Care must be taken at pedestrian areas where this water may freeze and create a slip hazard. ▶Worcester, Bosch Group have available on our website helpful videos in the Customer Service section to aid in thawing a frozen pipe. ▶Reset the appliance and wait two or three minutes for the appliance to restart. ▶Contact Worcester, Bosch Group Appointments Team on: 0330 123 9339, if the boiler does not restart. ▶Contact your installer in order to find a permanent solution to the problem. 7.3 Fault 2980Caution
Fault 2980 ▶If fault 2980 is visible on the boiler display then contact a qualified heating engineer immediately. Do not attempt to remedy the fault otherwise there is a chance this could lead to a serious, safety-related fault. Heating and hot water will not be available until remedied by a qualified heating engineer. 0010016301-001Environmental protection and disposal 15 Greenstar 1000 – 6721835944 (2023/08) 8 Environmental protection and disposal Environmental protection is a fundamental corporate strategy of the Bosch Group. The quality of our products, their economy and environmental safety are all of equal importance to us and all environmental protection legislation and regulations are strictly observed. We use the best possible technology and materials for protecting the environment taking account of economic considerations. Packaging Where packaging is concerned, we participate in country-specific recycling processes that ensure optimum recycling. All of our packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled. Compostable packaging Compostable packaging is used wherever possible in an effort to reduce the product’s impact on the environment and the overall demand for plastic packaging. Where the following symbol is shown the material is compostable: Compostable packaging can be disposed of in a number of ways: • Home compost heap • Local Authority garden waste collection • Local Authority food waste collection, ideally as a food waste bin bag • Local Authority household waste Please note that compostable materials cannot be recycled. Used appliances Used appliances contain valuable materials that can be recycled. The various assemblies can be easily dismantled. Synthetic materials are marked accordingly. Assemblies can therefore be sorted by composition and passed on for recycling or disposal. Old electrical and electronic appliances This symbol means that the product must not be disposed of with other waste, and instead must be taken to the waste collection points for treatment, collection, recycling and disposal. The symbol is valid in countries where waste electrical and electronic equipment regulations apply, e.g. "(UK) Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations 2013 (as amended)". These regulations define the framework for the return and recycling of old electronic appliances that apply in each country. As electronic devices may contain hazardous substances, it needs to be recycled responsibly in order to minimize any potential harm to the environment and human health. Furthermore, recycling of electronic scrap helps preserve natural resources. For additional information on the environmentally compatible disposal of old electrical and electronic appliances, please contact the relevant local authorities, your household waste disposal service or the retailer where you purchased the product. You can find more information here: www.bosch-homecomfortgroup.com/en/company/legal-topics/weee/ Batteries Batteries must not be disposed together with your household waste. Used batteries must be disposed of in local collection systems. 9 Tips on energy saving Quick Tap function ▶Fully open your hot water tap for at least 3 seconds. This ignites the boiler. ▶Turn hot water tap to fully closed. ▶Wait up to 30 seconds1) as the boiler continues to prepare hot water. ▶Open your hot water tap; hot water is available2) On average, 3.5 litres of water can be saved when using the Quick Tap function. Water saving varies depending on user behaviour, pipework design and the time of year, for example, if Central Heating is on during the winter, DHW will heat up quicker than in the summer, reducing the potential for water saving. Savings are calculated based on average mains water pressure, a heat-up time of 30 seconds and close proximity of the tap to the boiler. Heating economically The appliance provides a high level of comfort whilst keeping fuel consumption and the environment effects as low as possible. The appliance is controlled in such a way that it delivers heat at the correct rate and only if there is a clear demand from the system. Central heating systems with thermostatic radiator valves With modern heating systems set around a 20 °C heat loss, the optimum setting for a condensing boiler will be approximately 65 °C for the central heating temperature. This is to ensure a return temperature of less than
52 °C.
The system must be balanced correctly and the radiators may need upgrading. This allows the boiler to condense as much as possible for the central heating system. The temperature of each room can be set individually (except primary room with the room thermostat) using the thermostatic radiator valves. Room thermostats Reducing the setting of the room thermostat by 1 °C can reduce fuel consumption by up to 10%. New control systems Upgrade your heating control system if necessary with the latest equipment available. Roof insulation Around 30% of the heat loss from a property is through the roof. Replace any old insulation with new insulation, preferably of around 200mm thickness or more. Window frames Single glazed windows, particularly those with steel frames, can lose a great deal of heat. Consideration should be given to replacement with PVCu or wooden framed double glazed units. 1) If the hot water reaches the set temperature before 30 seconds has elapsed, the boiler will stop firing 2) Hot water is available at the boiler. Delivery time to the tap will vary on the pipework design and tap distance from the boilerYour guarantee Greenstar 1000 – 6721835944 (2023/08) 16 Radiators If a radiator is sited underneath a window, its performance will be affected if the curtains are allowed to drape over the radiator. Shelves fitted above or in front of the radiator should also be avoided. It is advisable to manually adjust all thermostatic radiator valves every 2‒3 months to prevent them sticking. Ensure radiator valves are correctly set and not damaged. Draughts Try to ensure that draughts around doors, windows, letter boxes and keyholes etc. are reduced by using a suitable draught excluder.
Warning
Air vents! ▶Do not block or seal any air vents that are installed to ensure that the appliance operates safely. Curtains Lined curtains, or heavier full length curtains can provide excellent insulation. However, always ensure that the curtains do not drape over radiators. 10 Your guarantee This appliance has a guarantee against faulty materials or workmanship from the date of installation subject to the following terms and conditions: • During the period of this guarantee any components of the appliance that are proven to be faulty or defective in manufacture will be exchanged or repaired free of charge by Bosch Thermotechnology Ltd. • The householder may be asked to prove the date of installation, that the appliance was correctly commissioned and, where appropriate, serviced to the satisfaction of Bosch Thermotechnology Ltd.
