[44] High pressure detected in system

Error 44 — High pressure detected in system

Haier · Air Conditioning

What does [44] High pressure detected in system mean?

This error indicates that the system's high pressure has been detected as being too high. This can happen if the indoor pipe temperature and outdoor pipe temperature are too low in cooling mode, or if the outdoor temperatures are too low when heating.

Common Causes

  • High pressure sensor reading is incorrect
  • Too much refrigerant in the system
  • Blocked liquid line piping
  • Outdoor unit cannot start heating due to the electronic expansion valve not opening
  • Operating environment is outside the allowed range
