General Description
3 General Description
The EC Series Water-to-Air Heat Pumps provide the best
combination of performance and efficiency available. Safety
devices are built into each unit to provide the maximum system
protection possible when properly installed and maintained.
All EC Water-to-Air Heat Pumps conform to UL 1995 standard
and are cer
tified to CAN/CSA C22.2 No 236 by Intertek-ETL.
NOTICE
For well water applications, 50*F minimum entering water
temperature (EWT) with sufficient flow is required to prevent
freezing. Antifreeze solution is required for all closed-loop
applications. Sufficient antifreeze solution is required to
protect against extreme conditions and equipment failure.
Frozen water coils are not covered under warranty.
