Product Description and Mode of Operation

Corrosion protection

The hot water reservoir is provided

with a double enamel coating. The

reservoir coating is intended for

use with normal drinking water. No

guarantees can be given if drinking

water of above average aggressivity

is used.

The protective anode should be

checked regularly and if necessary

exchanged by your installer or by

Hoval Customer Service. This is a

condition of the guarantee (ﬁg. 1).

The magnesium protective anode

must under all circumstances be

renewed if the diameter is down

to only 10 mm!

Functional Characteristics

of the controls on the WP-VT (2141)

Water heating mode

Depending on the settings, heating up

the water heater is carried out by the

pump, and/or electrical heating and/

or the boiler. The function of the water

heating operation is controlled by the

user program. heat pump: operational-

status W.Wasser. Temperature control:

by sensors ((Tmax=set point and Tmin).

The heat pump is switched on if the

temperature falls below the set value is

reached. If the heat pump is switched

off, the target temperature of the heat-

ing water is reached with the additional

heating selected (Hysteresis: WP +1/-

3K; additional heating system +/-1K).

The heat pump is switched off automati-

cally, if the temperature at the evapora-

tor unit falls below - 18°C. The operating

conditions are displayed in the control

panel. (See page 5: Display 3 )

De-icing mode

De-icing (by hot gas bypass) occurs

automatically as required. De-icing

with the de-icing value starts (fan off),

if the temperature at the evaporator

unit is <- 2°C. De-icing is terminated, if

the temperature of the de-icing sensor

reaches a value of + 5°C. If this value is

not reached within 20 minutes, de-icing

is stopped and the normal operation

is resumed. The de-icing interval is 2

hours.

Legionella protection

if in general little water is required (too

long a dwell time for the water in the

water heater), is it recommended that

the Legionella protection function be

activated. If the function is activated

(see user program) the water is peri-

odically heated to 65°C. First the water

is heated to 55°C by the heat pump

(time - max. 7 hrs), then together with

the additional heating (if switched on)

to 65°C. If the protection temperature

of 65°C is not reached within 12 hours,

an alarm is displayed. The Legionella

time sequence is 168 h (7 days), re-

peating itself periodically as long as

the function remains activated.

Important!

The status/mode setting and/or the

control‘s set values should not be

changed. In particular the settings

in the service menu (specialist level)

may not be changed.

Fault investigation

4 209 973 / 00 Operation/ Maintenance/ Service

Is your heating and hot

water plant working reli-

ably and economically

over the long run?

Regular maintenance

and ongoing checks

and care of all important

components ensure it

stays that way!

Work described in the op-

erating instructions should

be carried out from start

up onwards, not just after

the warranty has expired.

Your installer will gladly advise you.

Hoval service is recommended for the

following tasks, either as one-off orders

or as part of a service contract: Check-

ing the heat pump, the water heater, the

boiler, the regulators and the circulation

pump

Hoval service specialists are properly

equipped and can offer you a reliable

service.

If you want to place an order, please call

the regional service manager; he co-op-

erates closely with local service special-

ists. This enables us to visit you quickly.

If you cannot keep the heating working

properly by making manual adjustments,

we are will be with you within hours. In

all other cases we will visit within ve

working days (see also page 3).

The invoice is calculated on the basis

of materials used and labour time, while

our maintenance work is carried out at

reasonable ﬂat rates.

Travelling and labour are charged ac-

cording to the guidelines laid down by

the professional associations. When

placing your order, ask the manager for

a verbal guideline offer for material and

labor costs.

Operation and maintenance

To ensure problem free operation, a

yearly check should be carried out.

General checks

To detect possible irregularities in its

operation, the heat pump should be

checked out at regular intervals.

• Keep the housing of the equipment

clean, and the area around it.

• I Regularly wipe the installation with a

damp cloth, to remove dust and dirt.

This makes it easier to nd any leaks

early on, so they can be repaired.

• From time to time check all connec-

tions to ensure they are tight.

• From time to time check to ensure that

the operating voltage and phase ir-

regularity remains within the specied

limits.

• Performance monitoring

The temperature difference between

the inlet air and exhaust air should be

approximately 5-7K. Greater tempera-

ture differences point towards prob-

lems in air throughput (check both inlet

and exhaust air ow), whereas differ-

ences smaller than 4K indicate that the

heat pump is not functioning correctly

(inform customer service)

Important

The hot water tank is equipped with a

double enamelled wall. The coating of

the reservoir is designed for normal

drinking water quality. If drinking water of

above average aggressivity is used with-

out any special protection measures be-

ing taken, no guarantees can be given.

The protective anode should be

regularly checked and if neces-

sary exchanged by your installer or

Hoval customer service. This is a

condition of the guarantee.

In hard water areas (over 16° dH or 28°

fH), every two or three years a check

should be carried out. Ask your heating

specialist or Hoval customer service.

Cleaning the air duct

• Take care to ensure that the air inlet

and exhaust openings are free and not

blocked by objects or dirt.

• Protective grilles and air lters should

also be checked for their cleanliness.

This also applies any air ducts present.

Service

Important

When any work is being caried out on

the equipment, the mains plug should be

pulled out

Shut

The heat pump can be shut down

by switching off the water heating

heat pump on the control panel (see

Operation).

• The inlet and outlet screens and the

evaporator must be checked for dirt

regularly, and cleaned when neces-

sary. (See picture below.) The top

cover can be removed to clean the

evaporator.

Caution! Unplug the power cord be-

fore opening
