Heat Pump High Pressure Fault in Robin Hills Ext
The unit locks out on a high pressure error, often after running for a while. This page covers how we diagnose and repair it on heat pumps in Robin Hills Ext.
This fault is normally treated as priority work because the plant is still running but is damaging itself or wasting energy while it does.
Robin Hills Ext is an extension of Randburg with a mix of original and renovated housing, so geyser positions, pressure control and pipework standards vary stand to stand. Where a site runs on borehole water, hardness and iron content shorten service intervals considerably and are worth testing before setting a maintenance plan.

Can I keep using the system in the meantime?
Usually yes, for a short period, but efficiency and component life are both being lost while the fault persists.
Do you attend this fault in Robin Hills Ext?
