7.3

Symptom: You are feeling too cold
(hot) in your living room

Possible cause

too low (high).

Increase (decrease) the desired
room temperature.

If the problem recurs daily, do
one of the following:

▪ Increase  (decrease)  the  room

temperature preset value.

schedule.

The desired room temperature
cannot be reached.

Increase the desired leaving
water temperature in accordance
with the heat emitter type.

7.4

Symptom: The water at the tap is
too cold

Possible cause

Corrective action

You ran out of domestic hot
water because of unusual high
consumption.

If you immediately need domestic
hot water, activate the DHW tank
Powerful operation. However,
this consumes extra energy.

If you can wait, overrule
(increase) the active or next
scheduled desired temperature
so that more hot water will be
produced exceptionally.

If the problems recurs daily, do
one of the following:

▪ Increase 

the 

DHW 

tank

temperature preset value.

▪ Adjust 

the 

DHW 

tank

temperature 

schedule.

Example: 

Program 

to

additionally 

heat 

up 

the

DHW  tank  to  a  preset  value
(Eco  setpoint  =  lower  tank
temperature) during the day.

The desired DHW tank
temperature is too low.

7.5

Symptom: Heat pump failure

When  the  heat  pump  fails  to  operate,  the  backup  heater  and/or
booster  heater  can  serve  as  an  emergency  heater  and  either
automatically or non-automatically take over the heat load.

▪ When auto emergency is set to Automatic and a heat pump failure

occurs:

▪ For EHVH/X: The backup heater will automatically take over the

heat load and domestic hot water production

▪ For EHBH/X: The backup heater will automatically take over the

heat  load,  and  the  booster  heater  in  the  optional  tank  will
automatically take over the domestic hot water production.

▪ When  auto  emergency  is  set  to  Manual  and  a  heat  pump  failure

occurs,  the  domestic  hot  water  and  space  heating  operation  will
stop and need to be recovered manually via the user interface. To
recover  operation  manually,  go  to  the  Malfunctioning  main  menu
screen,  where  the  user  interface  will  then  ask  you  to  confirm
whether  the  backup  heater  and/or  booster  heater  can  take  over
the heat load or not.

When  the  heat  pump  fails, 

  or 

  will  appear  on  the  user

interface.
