PCB shows hESt its in heating standby waiting for a run signal.

Now turn up your heating thermostats the unit will operate. The display will 
show hE0f. Note on the remote controller the pumps 1 (in the unit) and 3 after 
the header are running and the off signal goes, When the compressor starts 
the display will show hEon

If alarm A.70 shows 

If the flow rate is too low, you need to fix this before moving on. Remove 
any air, clean the filter in the unit and if it’s still not enough you need bigger 
pumps. To clear the fault code, switch off both heating and hot water then 
switch them on again.

To test flow rates and temperatures

 

1. 

Hold back / return and OK together for 3 seconds. 

2.

temp unit. 

The PCB will show hSoF, it will change to hSon when it opens the 3 port to the 
cylinder and starts pump 1 

When its running check the flow rate again.

1. 

Press Menu

2. 

Operational Information – Ok

3. 

Scroll down to Heat Pump Details – OK

4. 

Water Flow Level – will show current water flow rate (m

3

/hr)

Run test in hot water mode

Once the unit has got going you can view the temperatures and record them 
on the warranty card at the front of the book.

To test cylinder and flow temp: 

1. 

Press menu, 

2. 

Operational information ok, 

3. 

Select DHW ok 

4. 

All temperatures are listed.

On LT units the water storage temperature is lower (50°C) than a normal 
cylinder. It’s important to check that any shower or bath mixers do not further 
reduce the water temperature. Using your thermometer check that the hot 
water comes out the tap at the same temperature it leaves the cylinder. If it 
doesn’t you might need to make adjustments to taps mixers etc. DON’T raise 
the cylinder temperature to compensate.

Remote controller set up first time

Remote controller set up first time

Now handover the system to the end user and fill in the warranty card at the front of the book. Your system is now fully 
commissioned, congratulations.
