H2 on a Baxi heat pump: Plate heat exchanger refrigerant inlet (liquid pipe) temperature sensor (T2) error
Short answer
On a Baxi heat pump, H2 means: Plate heat exchanger refrigerant inlet (liquid pipe) temperature sensor (T2) error. The manual does not say whether the heat pump stops. An engineer is needed to fix the cause. The wording differs by model range — each is shown below.

What it means
On the Assure Monobloc ASHP (Assure Mono 5/7/9/12/16)
The manual says: Plate heat exchanger refrigerant inlet (liquid pipe) temperature sensor (T2) error.
Part involved: temperature sensor.
Likely causes:
- T2 connector loose or wet; T2 sensor failing - replace.
On the HP40 / Baxi Assure HP50 Monobloc ASHP
The manual says: Refrigerant liquid temp. sensor (T2) fault.
Part involved: temperature sensor.
Likely causes:
- Check sensor resistance; T2 connector loose or wet; T2 sensor failed - replace.
On the HP60 / Baxi Assure HP55 High Temperature Monobloc ASHP (R290)
The manual says: T2 plate heat exchanger outlet refrigerant temperature sensor error.
Part involved: temperature sensor.
