What it means

The manual says: High Heat transfer fluid delta T8/T9 (GT8/GT9).

Part involved: T8/T9 temperature difference.

When it shows: High Heat transfer fluid delta T8/T9 (GT8/GT9).

Likely causes:

  • Insufficient flow over heat pump (pump jammed, valves closed, pump speed); blocked primary filter.

Is it safe?

Does the heat pump stop?Partly
SeverityWarning
Engineer needed?Yes

The heat pump keeps running with some functions stopped.

Resetting itself: no.

Manual reset: Press Ackn. on the control panel; heat pump restarts within 15 minutes if there is demand. Some causes need a reset button/MCB on the heat pump (engineer).

What you can check

  • Read and note the full alarm text and code in brackets shown on the controller and pass it to your installer.
  • Check the heating system pressure gauge reading (Bosch guidance is typically 1-2 bar when cold); report low pressure to your installer.
  • Press the Ackn. button once as the manual describes (manual: no risk in resetting an alarm); contact technical support if the alarm repeats.

What the engineer will check

  • Check pump, valves, speed; bypass/external main pump per p.13; clean filter.

Who to ask for: heat pump installer / heating engineer.

Certification: None specific for hydraulic checks; MCS-certified installer recommended for system changes.
