Note: If performance during any mode appears abnormal, 
refer to the CXM section or troubleshooting section of this 
manual. To obtain maximum performance, the air coil should 
be cleaned before start-up. A 10% solution of dishwasher 
detergent and water is recommended.
Unit Start-Up Procedure
blocked line. Check that the condensate trap is fi lled 
to provide a water seal.
e.   Refer to Table 10. Check the temperature of both 
entering and leaving water. If temperature is within 
range, proceed with the test. If temperature is outside 
of the operating range, check refrigerant pressures 
and compare to Tables 11 through 12. Verify correct 
water fl ow by comparing unit pressure drop across 
the heat exchanger versus the data in Tables 9a 
through 9b. Heat of rejection (HR) can be calculated 
and compared to catalog data capacity pages.  The 
formula for HR for systems with water is as follows:
HR = TD x GPM x 500, where TD is the temperature 
difference between the entering and leaving water, 
and GPM is the fl ow rate in U.S. GPM, determined 
by comparing the pressure drop across the heat 
exchanger to Tables 9a through 9b.
f.  
Check air temperature drop across the air coil when 
compressor is operating. Air temperature drop should 
be between 15°F and 25°F [8°C and 14°C].
g.   Turn thermostat to “OFF” position. A hissing noise 
indicates proper functioning of the reversing valve.
6. Allow fi ve (5) minutes between tests for pressure to 
equalize before beginning heating test.
a.   Adjust the thermostat to the lowest setting. Place the 
thermostat mode switch in the “HEAT” position.
b.   Slowly raise the thermostat to a higher temperature 
until the compressor activates.
c.   Check for warm air delivery within a few minutes after 
the unit has begun to operate.
d.   Refer to Table 10. Check the temperature of both 
entering and leaving water. If temperature is within 
range, proceed with the test. If temperature is outside 
of the operating range, check refrigerant pressures 
and compare to Tables 11 through 12. Verify correct 
water fl ow by comparing unit pressure drop across 
the heat exchanger versus the data in Tables 9a 
through 9b. Heat of extraction (HE) can be calculated 
and compared to submittal data capacity pages.  The 
formula for HE for systems with water is as follows: 
 
HE = TD x GPM x 500, where TD is the temperature 
difference between the entering and leaving water, 
and GPM is the fl ow rate in U.S. GPM, determined 
by comparing the pressure drop across the heat 
exchanger to Tables 9a through 9b.
e. 
  Check air temperature rise across the air coil when 
compressor is operating. Air temperature rise should 
be between 20°F and 30°F [11°C and 17°C]. 
f.   Check for vibration, noise, and water leaks.
7.   If unit fails to operate, perform troubleshooting analysis 
(see troubleshooting section). If the check described 
fails to reveal the problem and the unit still does not 
operate, contact a trained service technician to insure 
proper diagnosis and repair of the equipment.
8.   When testing is complete, set system to maintain 
desired comfort level.
9.   BE CERTAIN TO FILL OUT AND RETURN ALL 
WARRANTY REGISTRATION PAPERWORK.
 WARNING! 
 CAUTION! 
WARNING!  When the disconnect switch is closed, high 
voltage is present in some areas of the electrical panel. 
Exercise caution when working with energized equipment.
CAUTION! Verify that ALL water control valves are open 
and allow water fl ow prior to engaging the compressor. 
Freezing of the coax or water lines can permanently 
damage the heat pump.
