What the manual says
Manufacturer manualCompressor Discharge Temperature High Error
What causes this fault?
This fault occurs when the temperature of the gas leaving the compressor becomes dangerously high, causing the system to shut down to prevent internal damage. It is usually caused by the system struggling to move heat away efficiently, often due to a leak in the refrigerant gas or a mechanical part failing to regulate the flow correctly.
This issue is more frequent during summer heatwaves, as the high outdoor temperature makes it much harder for the unit to keep its internal components cool while operating.
Engineer required
This is a high severity fault. Stop using the boiler and call a Gas Safe registered engineer. Do not attempt gas-related repairs yourself.
Avoid the next call-out bill
A cover plan would handle faults like 9.1.28: no call-out fees, no surprise bills.
