Resetting itself: no.

Manual reset: no.

What you can check

  • Note the error number shown after pressing the Info (i) key on the Waterstage user interface. Check the heat pump breakers/isolators are on. The user manual RESET key/'Reset HP' is for installers ('do not use during normal operation') - contact your installer if the fault remains.

What the engineer will check

  • Check the wiring between X60 and the interface board.

Who to ask for: Heat pump / refrigeration engineer (manufacturer-trained).

Certification: F-gas certification for refrigerant-circuit work; electrical competence (Part P/18th Edition) for PCB/wiring.
