HA on a Baxi heat pump: Plate heat exchanger water outlet temperature sensor (TW_out) error
Short answer
On a Baxi heat pump, HA means: Plate heat exchanger water outlet temperature sensor (TW_out) 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 water outlet temperature sensor (TW_out) error.
Part involved: temperature sensor.
Likely causes:
- TW_out connector loose or wet; sensor failing - replace.
On the HP40 / Baxi Assure HP50 Monobloc ASHP
The manual says: Outlet water temp. sensor (Tw_out) fault.
Part involved: temperature sensor.
Likely causes:
- Tw_out connector loose or wet; Tw_out sensor failed - replace.
On the HP60 / Baxi Assure HP55 High Temperature Monobloc ASHP (R290)
The manual says: Tw_out plate heat exchanger outlet water temperature sensor error.
Part involved: temperature sensor.
