Itho Daalderop Heat Pump Error Code A1 30

Call a professionalReviewed November 2026Checked against manufacturer documentation
What this code means
A1 30: The liquid temperature (sensor T7) is too high

The liquid temperature in the refrigerant circuit rises too high, usually because the heat is not being carried away on the water side: too little flow across the condenser. Bleeding the system and opening everything can help; if the code keeps coming, investigating the circuit is work for an F-gas certified installer.

Also shown as: A01 30

Applies to: Itho Daalderop WPU 5G and older WPU types with an MFT thermostat (shown there as A01)

Common causes

  1. Too little flow on the water side of the condenser, for example due to air in the heating or hot-water system or a weak heating or vessel pump
  2. Sensor T7 reads incorrectly due to a fault and passes on a temperature that is too high

What to check, in order

Safety first. Switch the heat pump off at the breaker before checking anything. Never open the refrigerant circuit or the electrical boxes — refrigerant work requires F-gas certification. The checks on this page stay on the outside: power, settings, filters and pressure where your manual allows it.
  1. Open all radiator valves and underfloor-heating groups, bleed the heating system and check the water pressure (1.5 to 2 bar).
  2. Reset the unit once and see whether the code stays away.
  3. If the code returns, call an installer with F-gas certification and quote the code; the temperature belongs to the refrigerant circuit, and the flow and the sensor must be checked.

Clear the code and test

  1. Fix what the checks above found first — a filter cleaned, a setting corrected, power restored. Clearing the code without fixing the cause only brings it back.
  2. Make sure the heat pump has power and the controller is set to heating or hot water, as you need it.
  3. Restart the unit as your manual describes and give it time: a heat pump can take ten to twenty minutes to start a full cycle.
  4. If the unit runs a full cycle with no code, the fault is cleared. If the code returns, write down the code and what the unit was doing (heating, hot water or defrosting) before calling a technician — it speeds up the diagnosis.

When to call a professional

This code usually points to a faulty part, wiring or the control board on a Itho Daalderop heat pump. Run the checks above to rule out the simple causes, then book a technician — and book one straight away if any of these apply:

  • The code comes back after you have run the checks and a test cycle.
  • You smell burning, see sparks or scorch marks, or the breaker trips.
  • Water is leaking and you cannot stop it.
  • The fix needs panels opened beyond what your manual describes, or a part tested with a meter, and you are not set up for that.

When you call, give the brand, the code A1 30, your model number (on a label on the type plate, usually on the side of the unit) and the checks you already ran. It shortens the visit.

Repair or replace?

This fault is in professional territory: the fix usually means a major part or board-level work, and the labour adds up. If your machine is already well into its service life, get the repair quote first, then compare it with the price of a current equivalent model before you decide. Paying a large share of a new machine's price to repair an old one is rarely the better deal; replacing a machine over one cheap fault is wasteful too.

Parts are model-specific. Find your model number first — usually on a label on the type plate, usually on the side of the unit — and match the part to that number before ordering.

Questions people ask about A1 30

What does A1 30 mean on a Itho Daalderop heat pump?

A1 30 means: The liquid temperature (sensor T7) is too high. The liquid temperature in the refrigerant circuit rises too high, usually because the heat is not being carried away on the water side: too little flow across the condenser. Bleeding the system and opening everything can help; if the code keeps coming, investigating the circuit is work for an F-gas certified installer.

Can I fix Itho Daalderop A1 30 myself?

Only the preliminary checks. Code A1 30 usually means a part, wiring or the control board has failed, which is a technician job. Run the checks to rule out simple causes before you book.

How do I clear Itho Daalderop A1 30?

Fix what the checks above found first — a filter cleaned, a setting corrected, power restored. Clearing the code without fixing the cause only brings it back. Make sure the heat pump has power and the controller is set to heating or hot water, as you need it. Restart the unit as your manual describes and give it time: a heat pump can take ten to twenty minutes to start a full cycle.
