Nobody likes technical faults, especially when it’s a matter of comfort and convenience but unfortunately, it is something that can’t always be avoided. Today, homes and businesses rely on a rising amount of technology to support day-to-day activities, increasing the chance of technical issues. Luckily, many of these can be fixed by simply restarting the product without disrupting our experience or enjoyment for too long.

 

Turning our attention to air conditioning, these are also built so that basic maintenance can be conducted by the operator:

 

● Changing a filter to improve airflow

 

● Inspecting ducts and general cleaning

 

● Removing causes of clogging from around outdoor units

 

While these quick-fix solutions are to let the end-user improve comfort by themselves but there are issues that only a professional can identify and solve.

 

The use of climate control goes beyond our comfort and it is used by a multitude of services and trades where malfunctions implicate health risks or damage to business: healthcare facilities, laboratories, pharmacies, food processing and storage companies, enclosed commercial spaces… the list goes on. In order to facilitate the speed at which issues are identified and resolved, error codes are key.

 

But what are air conditioner error codes? Below, we explore the fundamentals of what they are and why we use them.

 

What are Error Codes?

Error codes indicate that a device, piece of equipment or machine has a problem within its system that needs attention. Generally, the more intricate the system is, the more particular the error codes are. In this case, we are referring to the error codes that Hitachi Cooling & Heating air conditioners produce when a technical fault is recognized by the equipment.

 

Air Conditioner error codes are a means of letting the technician know what the issue is with the equipment and explaining what the ‘symptoms’ are. If a technician had to diagnose the problem without any indication as to what could be causing it or to which part it is related, it would make the task difficult and time-consuming. So, not only does it make it easier for the technician to fix, but it also means that the client is able to continue using their air conditioner as swiftly and as safely as possible.

Once triggered by a fault in the system, error codes are easy to find on all of our products: Indoor units display them on their control screen and outdoor units display their error codes on the panel which is located behind a detachable door.

 

What’s more, is that our error code ‘language’ is used on all of our products within each range, and the majority of these codes are the same across different regions around the world.

 

Now, we want to make this ‘language’ as useful and as enjoyable possible, which is why we enlisted The Solvers to help you, the technician, maintain your professionalism and enjoy what you’re doing when on a job.
