EPH Services has completed a full service on a Daikin 5kW air source heat pump and hot water cylinder in Hingham, Norfolk – including diagnosing and fixing a fault that was stopping the system’s Legionnaires’ protection cycle from completing.
As part of the service, our engineers:
During our checks we identified fault code AH-00 – “Tank disinfection function not completed correctly.” After further investigation, we discovered the immersion heater switch had burnt out, which was preventing the Legionnaires’ cycle from completing as intended. We replaced the faulty switch, and the system is now back up and running efficiently, ready for another year of reliable service.
This is a great example of why regular servicing is so important. The heat pump was still heating the home, but a hidden fault meant a key safety cycle wasn’t completing. Routine servicing maintains performance, improves efficiency and catches issues like this before they become costly breakdowns – keeping your heat pump operating safely all year round.
What is the Legionnaires’ cycle?
A periodic high-temperature cycle that keeps stored hot water safe; it needs the immersion and controls working correctly.
Do you service all makes of heat pump?
Yes – we service all makes and models across Norfolk.
What areas do you cover?
Hingham, Wymondham, Dereham, Attleborough and the surrounding villages.
