Itho Daalderop Heat Pump Error Code A1 34

DIY checks firstReviewed November 2026Checked against manufacturer documentation
What this code means
A1 34: The heating flow temperature (sensor T10) is too high

If the heat pump cannot pass its heat to the heating system, the flow temperature rises too high and it switches off. Closed valves and air in the pipes are the most common causes and ones you can fix yourself; if the flow stays poor, the heating pump needs investigation.

Applies to: Itho Daalderop WPU 5G (including WPU-I, WPU-C, WPU-E, WPU-GE, WPU-KC and WPU-COE 5G)

Common causes

  1. Too little flow in the heating system, for example due to closed radiator valves or underfloor-heating groups
  2. Air in the heating system, so the water does not circulate properly
  3. The heating pump delivers too little flow or is faulty

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 fully, so the heating water can circulate freely.
  2. Bleed the heating system and check the water pressure; top up to between 1.5 and 2 bar if needed.
  3. If the code keeps returning while everything is open and there is no more air in the system, call your installer and quote the code; the heating pump must then 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

Most cases are solved by the checks above. Book a technician 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 34, 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.

Questions people ask about A1 34

What does A1 34 mean on a Itho Daalderop heat pump?

A1 34 means: The heating flow temperature (sensor T10) is too high. If the heat pump cannot pass its heat to the heating system, the flow temperature rises too high and it switches off. Closed valves and air in the pipes are the most common causes and ones you can fix yourself; if the flow stays poor, the heating pump needs investigation.

Can I fix Itho Daalderop A1 34 myself?

Start yourself: the checks on this page cover the causes you can reach without opening the machine up. If they point to a faulty part, testing or replacing it is usually a technician job.
