The following symptoms do not indicate malfunction.
Symptom Cause
Water flowing sound during operation. • Refrigerant flow inside the unit.
Operation is delayed a few minutes
after restarting.
• The delay is a protection for the compressor.
Mono bloc unit emits water/steam. • Condensation or evaporation occurring in the pipes.
Steam comes out of the mono bloc
unit in the heating mode.
• It is caused by defrost operation in the heat exchanger.
Mono bloc unit does not operate. • It is caused by the protection control of the system when outdoor temperature is
out of the operating range.
System operation switches off. • It is caused by the protection control of the system. When the water inlet
temperature is lower than 10 °C, the compressor stops and the backup heater
power turns on.
System is hard to heat up. • When the panel and the floor are heated simultaneously, warm water temperature
may decrease, which may reduce the heating ability of the system.
• When the outdoor air temperature is low, the system may need longer time to heat
up.
• Discharge outlet or intake inlet in the mono bloc unit is blocked by some obstacle,
such as a pile of snow.
• When the preset water outlet temperature is low, the system may need longer time
to heat up.
System does not heat up instantly. • System will take some time to heat up the water if it starts to operate at cold water
temperature.
Backup heater is automatically turned
ON when it is disabled.

Loud refrigerant noise continue for a
few minutes.
