About Thermann Heat Pumps
Thermann is an Australian brand sold through Reece Plumbing and backed by multiple OEM suppliers (including Reclaim, Midea, and Stiebel Eltron).
Refrigerant & Performance
The popular Thermann 280 and 300L integrated units use R134a refrigerant, while the CO₂ split system (Reclaim variant) uses R744 (CO₂) for high efficiency.
Extreme Conditions
Operating range from –5 °C to +43 °C, with auto-defrost and an in-tank backup element for reliable hot water even in extreme cold.
Comprehensive Thermann Servicing
We service compressor and refrigerant circuits, fan motors, evaporator coils, thermistors, sensors, PTR/expansion valves, anodes, PCBs, capacitors, wiring, and supply.
Common Thermann Heat Pump Problems We Fix
Here are the most common faults we diagnose and repair on Thermann heat pumps.
No hot water / lukewarm
Sensor or PCB fault, compressor not engaging, refrigerant loss, blocked airflow, tariff or timer issue.
PTR valve dripping
Excess pressure or temperature, worn valve, blocked drain. We test and replace PTR, confirming pressures and drainage.
Runs constantly / short cycles
Cold ambient, dirty/iced coil, faulty sensor, incorrect timer. We clean the coil, test defrost mode, and reconfigure control settings.
Noise / vibration
Fan bearing wear, debris, loose mounts, compressor strain. We inspect the fan and casing, clear debris, and secure components.
Error codes (E1–E7, P1, P4, P6)
Temperature or pressure sensor faults, defrost issues, PCB or compressor fault. We follow the Thermann service chart, test components, and replace faulty parts.
Reduced efficiency / high bills
Dirty coil, scale build-up, booster element overuse. We flush and clean the coil, descale the tank, and optimise cycle and timers.
