What does suction th short alarm mean on Pentair ULTRATEMP 90?
- AAutumn MannSep 12, 2025
If your Pentair Heat Pump displays a suction th short alarm, it indicates that the defrost refrigerant temperature sensor circuit is shorted. This is often due to a faulty thermistor or a bad control board. To fix this, use the 10k ohm resistance test to check the thermistor. If the test shows a short, replace the thermistor. If the thermistor is good, the problem is likely the control board, which will need to be replaced.
