What you can check
- Note the code shown on the controller and the unit model numbers (on the rating plate label) before contacting your installer.
- Check the heat pump's breaker/isolator at the consumer unit is on; do not open any casing.
- Check the heating system pressure gauge shows the pressure your installer set (typically about 1-2 bar); if it is low, report it rather than refilling unless you have been shown how. Check any filling loop is closed.
- Check radiator valves / underfloor zones are open and thermostats are calling for heat.
- In freezing weather keep the heat pump powered on (its frost protection relies on power) and check the outdoor unit is clear of snow/ice.
What the engineer will check
- Follow the manufacturer's troubleshooting flowchart for this code.
- Check water pressure, strainer/filter and air in the system.
- Check circulation pump operation and flow sensor/switch.
- Check heater safety thermostats and wiring.
Who to ask for: Heat pump engineer.
Certification: Heat pump installer competence; F-gas / flammable-refrigerant (R290/R32) handling competence for any refrigerant-circuit work.
