How we keep this accurate
Many code lists online mix up brands or repeat each other. We do the opposite. Each code meaning on HeatingCodes was read in a manufacturer manual or an official source, the page links to that document, and the page says which models the document covers. If we could not confirm a code, we leave it out. For example, many sites call H6 a Mitsubishi code, but the Mitsubishi manual we checked does not list it, while Daikin's service manuals do; our H6 page shows both sources.
