Problem 

– Action / Remedy 

 
Action / Remedy

: Make sure the water reaches the pool heat pump and the 

pool pump is completely filled to the rim. Otherwise: 
 

-

 

Fill the pool pump with  water and check to see if the pipes between the 
pool pump and the pool are watertight (there should be no air intake); 

-

 

Check the swimming pool and pool skimmer baskets and the drain at the 
bottom of the pool for obstructions; 

-

 

Check  the  filter  cartridges  for  obstructions  (wash  or  change  the 
cartridges, as the case may be); 

-

 

Insure  that  the  bypass  valves  are  in  the  correct  positions  so  that  the 
water flows adequately; 

-

 

Backwash sand filter (insure that there is a sufficient amount of sand and 
verify  that  it  does  not  have  to  be  changed.  Consult  a  swimming  pool 
specialist if necessary); 

-

 

Make sure the vacuum robot is disconnected so the water flows freely; 

-

 

If  you  have  a  two  speeds  pool  pump,  make  sure  that  it  is  set  at  the 
highest speed. 

 

Problem

:  Tthe  electronic  control  with  diagnostics  or  reversible  (XLR) 

electronic control with diagnostics is

 OFF

 or could be defective. 

 

Action / Press on the ON/OFF key 
 
 
  

 

 

 

 
Problem

: The water temperature probe has a loose connection or is faulty. 

The probe will need to be checked and replaced, if required. 

 
Action / Remedy

: Contact customer service. 

 
Problem

:  Water  temperature  is  higher  than  45  °C  (113  °F)  within  the  unit 

(this  code  is  only  displayed  on  the  electronic  control  with  diagnostics  and 
reversible (XLR) electronic control with diagnostics). 

 

 

Action / Remedy

-

 

Make sure the bypass valves are in the correct positions; 

-

 

Proceed  to  the  calibration  of  the  electronic  control  with  diagnostics  and 
reversible (XLR) electronic control with diagnostics. 

 

 

 

 

 

Problem - Action / Remedy 

 
Problem

:  Low  refrigerant  level  in  the  pool  heat  pump  or  the  low-pressure 

safety control is defective. 
 
Atmospheric conditions as well as the pool water temperature should not be 
below  the  minimum  operating  temperatures,  as  stated  below,  in  order  to 
obtain  efficiency  and  avoid codes from  appearing  on the electronic control 
temperature display.  These codes are not generally a problem with the pool 
heat pump at these conditions and are not covered under warranty. 
 
If  temperatures  are  below  the  minimum  temperatures  the  pool  heat  pump 
should not be operated and must be switched off.

Action / Remedy

:

 

-

 

If the LP code is shown permanently, press 

ON/OFF

 before getting to the 

next step; 

 

-

 

Ensure  the  evaporator  is  clean. 

If  not,  switch  the  unit  OFF  from  the 

circuit  breaker 

(fuse)  and  use  a  garden  hose  to  lightly  clean  the 

evaporator.  Allow it to dry before re-starting the pool heat pump to avoid 
premature ice build up on the evaporator. 

 

-

 

Ensure installation instructions have been followed.  Improper installation, 
e.g. no air circulation, could lead to the pool heat pump continually going 
into LP mode and the installation will need to be corrected by the owner.  
This situation is not covered by the warranty. 

 

Problem

:  Low  water  circulation  in  the  unit  or  the  high-pressure  control  is 

defective.   
 
Note: The pool pump will stop functioning only if the internal time delay of the 
pool heat pump is being used. 
 

IMPORTANT

:  When  the  code  HP  is  permanently  displayed,  before 

performing the  steps  below  please press 

ON/OFF

  for the  electronic control 

with diagnostics and the reversible (XLR) electronic control with diagnostics.
