Answer:
The FP mode, or “Freeze Protection” mode, on a Senville mini-split is a feature that our customers find especially useful for unoccupied spaces during cold months. When activated, FP mode maintains a low, steady indoor temperature, usually around 8°C (46°F), to prevent pipes and other fixtures from freezing. In our experience, homeowners with vacation properties or those who travel frequently appreciate this function because it helps protect their home while reducing energy costs. To enable FP mode, press and hold the HEAT or specific mode button on your remote (depending on your model), and ensure the system indicates the setting is active.
More On FP Mode and Its Benefits:
FP mode is designed to save energy while providing critical freeze protection. In colder regions of Canada, this is particularly valuable for spaces like cabins, garages, or basements that might not require full heating but still need protection from freezing temperatures. This low-energy mode ensures that your property is safeguarded against extreme weather without racking up high energy bills.
From what we’ve seen, many Senville mini-splits include this feature as part of their intelligent programming, highlighting their suitability for diverse Canadian climates. If your system doesn’t seem to activate FP mode or you’re unsure about the settings, double-check the user manual or the Senville app if you have a smart-enabled model. For further peace of mind, scheduling an inspection with an HVAC professional can confirm that the mode is functioning properly.
