If you are experiencing high run costs check the following: 

It’s always assumed that the whole electricity bill is the heat pump, but this is not the case, 
what is the background usage (lights TV, internet hot tub etc.?) this could be anywhere from 0 
to 100% of this bill.  
We need this figure to tell us what’s going on and so we can deduct this from the bill to work 
out the heat pump run cost.  It’s always a good idea when doing this work to take an energy 
meter with you, kill the power to the heat pump and measure the background use when you 
are there it really helps. You need to bear in mind you should expect heating bills of over 
£100 a month in winter and nothing in summer but if you run the unit or any heating system in 
the summer expect super high bills 
 

Heating 

It’s probable that the heat pumps are not set up right causing hi run costs, problems include 
The stats are calling for heating all year long. (surprisingly common) 
The stats are not connected to the heat pump, either wiring errors field setting 2091 not set 
to1, etc.  
There are towel rads keeping the unit running all year long. 

Does the unit stop when you turn all your thermostats off? 

With AU on the screen the unit should only heat is a run signal is sent into terminals B22 or 
B24 on the unit. Switch off the thermostats and carry out the tests on page 2 

Hot water 

The tank stat is too low in the cylinder so the immersion is on all the time 
The tank stat is not fully in the cylinder, if its pulled out it can’t see the tank temperature. 
There is a recirc pump dragging the tank down all the time bringing in the immersion. 
 

Is the tank temperature measured by the unit accurate, test this by measuring the 
temperature of the water coming out of the cylinder and compare it with the measured 
temperature using the view button on the controller? If the tank temperature sensor is reading 
low the immersion will run constantly.  

See video here 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbwDZ5vU4GM

 

Check that field setting 3032 is set correctly. This is the delay before the immersion comes in. 
We usually set 20 min delay in 3032 for a 200L cylinder or 60 mins for a 300L cylinder. 

Check the hot water set temperature is NOT above 48C, press the 

oval Set

 button and adjust 

with 

+ or - 

button
