Heat Pump Low Pressure Fault in Mondeor Ext
The unit trips on low pressure, typically in cold weather or early morning. This page covers how we diagnose and repair it on heat pumps in Mondeor 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.
Mondeor Ext is an extension of Alberton 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.
