What you can check

  • Note the fault number and text shown after tapping the fault symbol on the Navigator display. Check the heating-system pressure gauge is in the range given in the user guide - do not top up yourself unless you have been shown how; check radiator/underfloor valves and room thermostats are open. If the fault recurs several times, contact iDM customer service/your installer.

What the engineer will check

  • Diagnose per iDM service documentation for the unit (not obtained): check the monitored circuit/component named in the fault.

Who to ask for: heat pump engineer.
