What does the 463 error mean on an Immergas heat pump?

The 463 error on an Immergas heat pump indicates OLP overheating. The overload protection system has detected excessive temperature. Allow the unit to cool down completely for at least 30 minutes. Check that the outdoor unit has adequate ventilation and airflow is not restricted. Switch off at the isolator, wait five minutes, then restart. If the error persists, contact a qualified technician for diagnosis of the overheating cause.

What does the 15 error mean on an Immergas boiler?

The 15 error on an Immergas boiler indicates a configuration error. The control board has detected an electrical wiring anomaly or an incompatibility in the system configuration. The boiler will not start until this is resolved. Switch off the boiler at the electrical supply. Do not attempt to reset or reconfigure the boiler yourself. Contact a qualified technician to diagnose the wiring fault and correct the configuration settings.

What does the 231 error mean on an Immergas heat pump?

The 231 error on an Immergas heat pump indicates a condensation temperature sensor malfunction. The sensor monitoring refrigerant condensation temperature has failed or is reporting incorrect values. Switch off the heat pump at the isolator switch. Contact a qualified technician with F-Gas certification for diagnosis. This sensor is critical for efficient heat pump operation and refrigerant circuit protection.

What does the 20 error mean on an Immergas boiler?

The 20 error on an Immergas boiler indicates a parasite flame block. The flame detection system is sensing a flame signal when the boiler should not be firing, which could indicate a leak in the detection circuit or a flame control unit anomaly. If you smell gas, do not operate any switches, ventilate the area if safe to do so, leave the property immediately, and call the gas emergency service from outside. If there is no gas smell, switch off the boiler at the electrical supply and do not attempt to restart. Contact a Gas Safe registered engineer immediately for inspection.

What does the 221 error mean on an Immergas heat pump?

The 221 error on an Immergas heat pump indicates an outdoor unit temperature sensor malfunction. The temperature sensor on the outdoor unit is reporting incorrect readings or has failed. Switch off the heat pump at the isolator switch for five minutes. Switch back on and monitor for the error. If the error persists, contact a qualified technician for sensor testing and replacement.

How can I maximise the efficiency of my Immergas condensing boiler?

To achieve maximum efficiency, lower the flow temperature setting. Condensing boilers operate most efficiently when return water temperatures stay below 55°C, which is the dew point for flue gases. Setting flow temperatures to 60°C or lower typically ensures the boiler operates in full condensing mode, capturing more heat from the flue gases and using less gas. Higher flow temperatures reduce efficiency as the boiler cannot fully condense the water vapour in the exhaust.

What do the symbols on my Immergas boiler display mean?

During normal operation, the display shows a green illumination with symbols indicating boiler status. The display typically shows the current water temperature. A flame symbol indicates the burner is active. A tap symbol relates to domestic hot water functions. A radiator symbol relates to central heating. Error codes appear as numbers or letter-number combinations when faults occur. When on standby, a horizontal segment appears. Consult your specific model manual for detailed symbol meanings as they can vary between models.

How do I repressurise my Immergas boiler?

Locate the filling loop beneath or near your boiler. Open both valves slowly to allow cold mains water into the system while watching the pressure gauge. When it reaches between 1.0 and 1.2 bar, close both valves securely.

How does the defrost function work on my Immergas heat pump?

The heat pump automatically enters defrost mode when ice builds up on the outdoor unit's evaporator coil. During defrosting, the system reverses briefly to melt the ice, then returns to normal operation.

What COP (efficiency) can I expect from my Immergas heat pump?

The Coefficient of Performance varies by model and operating conditions. For example, the Audax Top 6 ErP achieves approximately 4.28 COP when producing water at 35°C, meaning it delivers about 4.28 kW of heat for every 1 kW of electricity consumed.
