Chriswills Posted January 8, 2024 Share Posted January 8, 2024 I'm having an error on my heatpump which indicates that the particle filter needs cleaning. I cant for the life of me find out where it is, does anyone have some ideas please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chriswills Posted January 8, 2024 Author Share Posted January 8, 2024 Thanks Ian, I’ve taken the covers off as pic, there is nothing there to remove and clean?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanR Posted January 8, 2024 Share Posted January 8, 2024 The Manual suggests it's this: And on Page 39 does say: But from the image there's not an obvious way how that is done. Time to get a professional in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markocosic Posted January 8, 2024 Share Posted January 8, 2024 That's on the refrigerant circuit. Warranty item / something that you can't touch as a consumer. Perhaps it's a mis-translation and there is also a strainer on the water circuit that you can clean. Doubtful but we can be hopeful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriswills Posted January 8, 2024 Author Share Posted January 8, 2024 Must be something that can be cleaned easy as it mentions cleaning it every 3 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanR Posted January 8, 2024 Share Posted January 8, 2024 (edited) Perhaps it's measuring a high pressure, or low flow rate and is suggesting your central heating circuit Particle Filter needs cleaning, not the ASHP Particle Filter.

Chriswills Posted January 8, 2024 Author Share Posted January 8, 2024 It’s just that the manual uses the term particle filter and mentions it in the diagram too. I wouldn’t have thought that NIBE care about any circuits after that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t have thought that NIBE care about any circuits after that? Since Nibe try to limit their hardware to Approved Installers that have to Install in the Nibe prescribed way, I wouldn't be surprised if they do care about the primary heating circuit. Not sure about the S2125, but the F2040 has an external circ. pump and they do stipulate the Particle Filter that must be used. Edited to add: From the manual: This does sound like the primary heating circuit Particle Filter Edited January 8, 2024 by IanR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
