Trouble shooting guide  

If you face a problem while using  our Heat Pump water heater system, please check the 
following table prior to calling for support. 

 
For those problems not listed above, an inspection provided by a skilled engineer is 
required. Please contact the distributor. 
 

Caution: 

Do not shut the electricity supplied to the Heat Pump system off even if you go away from 
home and do not use hot water for a long while. 
If the system is equipped with freeze protect heaters, also do not shut the power supply to 
the heaters. 
Failure to do so may cause a crack on the pipes due to the pipes getting frozen. 
 

Status 

Considerable Causes 

Action to Take 

No hot water 
comes out of 
water tap 
 
Temperature 
of hot water is 
too low 

Small or no hot water is left in 
the storage tank. 

- Stop using hot water and wait for about 1 
hour 
- Consider a change of the electricity 
supply off-peak mode (Length of power-
supply hours may be too short for the 
water heating cycle to cover the hot water 
consumption) 

Air removing procedure from the 
heat pump system may be 
insufficient. 

- Open the water drain plugs on the Heat 
Pump Unit to remove air from water circuit.
(Be careful for burning) 

Filter on cold inlet connector may 
be blocked. 

- Check the filter and remove if there is any 
blockage 

Water flow speed may be 
dropped due to the heat pump 
piping bend, blockage or crush. 

- Check for any piping bend or crush and 
remove if any 

Pipes may be frozen. 

- If frozen area is found on the piping, melt 
the ice on the pipe and provide a heat 
insulation 

Stop valve is closed. 

- Open the valve 

Air absorption is not sufficient 
due to a blockage on the 
evaporator. 

-Remove the object blocking the air flow 
through the evaporator  
(e.g. fallen leaves, grass, snow, etc.)
