NIBE F750 Heat Pump

18 fault codes documented

Additional heat blocked symbol

Additional heat blocked symbol displayed — Additional heat is not available

The display shows a symbol indicating that the supplementary or 'additional' heat function is currently blocked. This means the electric immersion heater or other auxiliary heat source is not active, potentially due to system settings, a schedule, or an alarm.

Alarm persists after reset

Red status lamp and 'alarm' menu remain after reset — Problem not resolved

After attempting to reset an alarm, if the status lamp continues to show a red light and an 'alarm' menu is still visible on the display, it signifies that the underlying problem causing the alarm has not been resolved. The malfunction is still present.

Boiler Dry Start Damage

Damaged Components — Temperature limiter, thermostat, or immersion heater damaged

Starting the heat pump (moving switch SF1 to " " or " ") when the boiler has not been filled with water can cause permanent damage to critical components like the temperature limiter, thermostat, or immersion heater.

Cable Interference

Communication or Sensor Errors — Caused by incorrect cable routing

External communication and sensor cables may experience interference or provide incorrect readings if they are routed too close to high current cables within the installation, affecting the heat pump's operation.

Compressor blocked symbol

Compressor blocked symbol displayed — Compressor is not running

This symbol appearing on the display indicates that the heat pump's compressor is currently blocked from operating. This can be an intentional state based on settings or a protective measure due to an active alarm.

External Input Not Active

External Switch or Sensor Not Working — External accessory function not enabled

An external switch function or sensor connected to the F750 (e.g., to AUX1-AUX5 or AA3:X7) is not functioning as expected. This usually means the input or output function for that connection has not been correctly selected in the heat pump's software.

FA1 Tripped

Miniature Circuit-breaker (FA1) Tripped — Internal electrical components are protected

The internal miniature circuit-breaker (FA1) has tripped, which protects components like the fan and circulation pumps. This can happen due to an electrical overload or a fault within the heat pump. It may also have tripped during transportation.

FD1 Tripped

Temperature Limiter (FD1) Tripped — Overheating detected, power cut to electrical addition

The heat pump's temperature limiter (FD1) has activated, cutting power to the electrical heating element. This happens if the internal temperature rises between 90°C and 100°C, indicating an overheating condition. It requires a manual reset.

GP1 Not Starting

Circulation Pump (GP1) Not Starting — System water not circulating

The circulation pump, which moves water through the system, is not working. This might prevent proper heating or cooling. The pump may need manual assistance to start.

Low room temperature

Low room temperature

The indoor temperature is lower than desired, indicating that the heat pump is not effectively heating the living spaces. This problem typically does not trigger a display alarm.

Low/No hot water

Low hot water temperature or no hot water

The NIBE F750 is not producing hot water at the desired temperature, or there is a complete lack of hot water. This can be due to valve positions, system settings, or usage patterns.

Main Fuse Tripping

Main Fuse Tripping — Electrical overload in the property

The property's main fuse may trip if the heat pump's electrical addition operates simultaneously with many other high-power consumers. The F750 has integrated load monitors, but an overload can still occur.

No display alarm, general fault

Heat pump not operating or unexpected behavior (no display alarm)

The heat pump is experiencing an operational issue or is not functioning as expected, but no specific alarm message or symbol is shown on the display. This typically points to external power issues or tripped safety devices within the unit.

Red status lamp and alarm bell

Red status lamp and alarm bell — Malfunction detected

When an alarm occurs, the status lamp on the heat pump changes from a continuous green to a continuous red. Additionally, an alarm bell symbol appears in the information window on the display. This indicates a malfunction that the heat pump cannot automatically resolve.

Reduced Ventilation

Reduced Ventilation Capacity — Inefficient operation or potential moisture damage

The heat pump's ventilation system is not moving enough air, which can lead to inefficient heating/cooling and might cause moisture problems in the house.

Room Sensor Issue

Inaccurate Room Temperature — Temperature display or control problems

The F750 display shows an incorrect room temperature, or the system isn't controlling the room temperature as expected. This can happen if the room sensor is not installed, not activated, or poorly placed.

Software update interrupted

Software update interrupted — Resetting to previous version

If a software update is interrupted, for example by a power cut, the heat pump's software can be reset to its previous stable version. This helps restore functionality if the unit becomes unresponsive after an incomplete update.

USB Data Loss Risk

Risk of Data Loss — USB memory removed while active

Removing the USB memory from the heat pump while data logging is 'activated' can lead to data loss or corruption of the log files.
