EcoRenovator - View Single Post - Heat pump reversing valve with position sensor

The reversing valve is a key component of a heat pump system. Like any mechanical item that moves, it is subject to failure. I have no idea what is the most common failure (internal leaks ? coil failures ?). If you are designing your own heat pump system with your own controller, a reversing valve with a position sensor could be valuable in resolving problems.

Does this exit ?
