@Terry247 at the risk of throwing in a red herring (as it refers to Samsungs rather than Daikins, which are somewhat different in design) you may find some helpful background in [Samsung ASHPs: Anatomy of a Defrost](https://community.openenergymonitor.org/t/samsung-ashps-anatomy-of-a-defrost/27767). It’s a long read, but perhaps something to pass the time until you can fire up your HP again…
