When no glycol is added to the water, you can use freeze protection
valves to drain the water from the system before it can freeze.
▪ Install freeze protection valves (field supply) at all lowest points of
the field piping.
▪ Normally closed valves (located indoors near the piping entry/exit
points) can prevent that all water from indoor piping is drained
when the freeze protection valves open.
NOTICE
When freeze protection valves are installed, do NOT select
a minimum cooling setpoint lower than 8°C (8°C=default).
If lower, freeze protection valves can open during cooling
operation.
Consult the installer reference guide of the unit for more detailed
information.
Heater tape (field supply)
1 Install heater tape to the outdoor field piping.
2 Provide external power supply for the heater tape.
NOTICE
▪ For the internal heater tape to operate, the power to the
unit MUST be ON. For this reason, during cold periods,
never disconnect the power, nor turn off the main
switch.
▪ In case of a power failure, power to the heater tape
(both internal and external) will be aborted and the
water circuit will NOT be protected. To guarantee a full
protection, it is always possible to add glycol to the
water circuit or to use freeze protection valves, even
when installing heater tape to the outdoor field piping.
4.3.4 To fill the domestic hot water tank
For installation instructions, see the installation manual of the
domestic hot water tank.
4.3.5 To insulate the water piping
The piping in the complete water circuit MUST be insulated to
prevent condensation during cooling operation and reduction of the
heating and cooling capacity.
For the outdoor piping insulation, refer to the installer reference
guide or the installation manual of the outdoor unit.
4.4 Connecting the electrical wiring
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
WARNING
ALWAYS use multicore cable for power supply cables.
4.4.1 About electrical compliance
Only for the backup heater of the indoor unit
See "4.4.4 To connect the backup heater power supply" on
page10.
4.4.2 To connect the electrical wiring on the
indoor unit
1 Open the switch box so that you can access the back of the
switch box. See "4.1.1To open the indoor unit"on page5.
2 Route the wiring as follows:
▪ Enter the unit from the bottom.
▪ Route the wiring via the back of the switch box.
▪ Fix the cables with cable ties to the cable tie mountings at
the back of the switch box.
