Installation guidelines

The following information is for guidance only.

Locating the Unit

The unit should be located on a solid, flat, horizontal surface. Ensure 3 meters of free air flow to the

discharge panel and 1 meter to the inlet panel. Ensure adequate access to the controller and for

maintenance purposes.

Precautions

-Avoid locating the unit close to bedrooms or other noise sensitive areas.

-Avoid a location which could create vibration i.e. secured to a solid wall.

-Try to avoid placing the unit under a tree or exposed to extreme conditions.

Water connection

The heat pump is connected to a filtration circuit with a by-pass.

It is imperative that the by-pass is placed after the pump and the filter.

The by-pass generally consists of 3 valves.

This makes it possible to regulate the water flow which passes through the heat pump and to isolate the

heat pump completely for any maintenance work, without cutting the flow of filtered water.

If your installation is equipped with a water treatment system (chlorine, bromine, salt etc.) the by-pass must

be installed before the water treatment, with a non-return valve between the by-pass and water treatment

system.

Electrical connection

The Electrical supply must correspond to that indicated on the appliance.

MAINTENANCE

To protect the paintwork, avoid leaning or putting objects on the shell. External Heat Pump parts can be

wiped with a damp cloth and domestic cleaner. (Warning: Never use cleaning agents containing sand,

soda, acid or chloride as these can damage the surfaces.)

To prevent blockages in the titanium heat exchanger, ensure that the system incorporates a water and

filter treatment facility. In the event of a problem occurring due to contamination, the system should be

cleaned as described below. (Warning: the fins on the finned tube heat exchanger are sharp!).

Cleaning the Heat Exchanger and Pipework

Contamination in the pipes and heat exchanger can reduce the performance of the heat pumps’

titanium heat exchanger. If this is the case, the pipe system and heat exchanger must be cleaned by a

technician.

Use only pressurized drinking water for cleaning.

Cleaning the air system

The finned heat exchanger, fan and condensate outflow should be clear of all obstructions (leaves,

twigs, etc.) before each new heating season. These can be manually removed using compressed air or

by flushing with clean water.

It may be necessary to remove the unit cover and air inlet grid first.

Attention: Before opening the unit, ensure that all electrical supplies are isolated.

To prevent the evaporator and the condensate tray from being damaged, do not use hard or sharp

objects for cleaning.

Under extreme weather conditions (e.g. snow drifts), ice may form on the air intake and exhaust air

outlet grids. If this happens, the ice must be removed in the vicinity of the air intake and exhaust air

outlet grids to ensure that the minimum air flow rate is maintained.

Winter Shutdown.

To prevent frost damage to the unit when not in use the Heat Pump should be drained of all water.

Failing this another form of frost protection should be considered and actioned.

Attention: The warranty does not cover damage caused by inadequate frost protection measures

during the winter.

TROUBLESHOOTING

This section provides useful information for diagnosing and correcting certain problems which may

occur. Before starting the troubleshooting procedure, carry out a thorough visual inspection of the unit

and look for obvious defects such as loose connections or defective wiring.

Before contacting your local dealer, read this chapter carefully. It could save you time and money.

WHEN CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE ENSURE ADEQUATE PRECAUTIONS ARE TAKEN TO

PREVENT AN ELECTRIC SHOCK.

The hints below are for guidance only. If you cannot solve the problem, consult your installer/local

dealer.

The Heat pump will not run.

Please check:

➢ There is a supply voltage (tripped fuse, power failure).

➢ The switch on the wired controller is switched on, and whether the correct set point temperature

has been set.

The set temperature level cannot be reached.

Please check whether:

➢ The permissible operating conditions for the heat pump have been adhered to (air temperatures

too high or too low).

➢ The air inlet or outlet area is blocked, restricted or very dirty.

➢ There are closed valves or stop-cocks in the water pipes.
