Possible Causes

Full internal condensate tank, Blocked drain hose, Faulty float switch or water level sensor, Unit not leveled correctly

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before draining water or moving it.

  • Empty the tank: Remove the condensate tank or open the drain plug as per the user manual. Drain water into a suitable container.
  • Check float switch: Ensure the float moves freely and is not stuck by dirt or scale. Clean gently if needed.
  • Inspect drain hose: If a continuous drain hose is used, ensure it is not kinked or blocked and that it slopes downward.
  • Level the unit: Use a spirit level to ensure the unit is roughly level so water flows correctly to the tank or drain.
  • Sensor replacement: If P2 persists with an empty tank and free float, the water level sensor or float switch may be faulty and should be replaced.
