Possible Causes

Faulty or mislocated Nibe indoor sensor, Incorrect outdoor sensor readings, Control parameters set too conservatively, Drafts affecting sensors

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Frost protection is a safety feature; do not disable it entirely.

  • Check sensor locations: Ensure indoor and outdoor sensors are not exposed to drafts, direct sunlight, or other heat/cold sources.
  • Review settings: In the Nibe control menu, check frost protection thresholds and adjust within recommended limits if you are competent.
  • Seal drafts: Reduce cold drafts around sensors and pipework that may trigger unnecessary frost cycles.
  • Technician calibration: A Nibe technician can verify sensor readings and replace faulty Nibe indoor or outdoor sensors.
