Renting? Report it to your landlord or housing provider first. They are responsible for gas safety and boiler repairs, and the repair should not cost you.
What 229 means
Flame failed during burner operation.
Safe check
Use the user-guide reset instruction once. If the fault persists, contact the contractor or Worcester customer service.
When to contact an engineer
Arrange a Gas Safe registered engineer if the fault remains or returns; the detailed fault checks in the installation manual are for a qualified engineer.
Safety notice
A boiler fault code alone is not a gas or carbon-monoxide emergency. If you smell gas, a CO alarm sounds, anyone feels unwell, or there is an unsafe flame, leave and call 0800 111 999 from outside.
