I thought some thermal images would be interesting.
- A small amount of exposed connector leaking heat
- Nice and warm on the right hand side
- Pump is warm, but the really interesting thing is the tape heater at the bottom which is active
From my reading of the service manual this is the water inlet tape heater, E11H, which should NOT be active as the inlet water is >11C (I had the heat pump running…).
It’s like someone missed the AND in the coding / electronics. That’s another 33W I’d like to not use please.
