The Enerflow heat pump has the ability to disinfect your geyser once a week (Monday
mornings at 02h00) from bacteria such as Legionella*. During this process the
heat pump will automatically be started to heat the water to 55°C where after the
electric element will be activated until the target temperature (set in parameter
6** - recommended 60°C) is reached (geyser thermostat set to 60°C as default
during installation). This temperature will be maintained for the time period as set in
parameter 7 (10 to 30 min).
NOTE:
During the Disinfection Cycle the sign will flash on the LCD controller:
* The pathogenic Gram-negative bacterium that grows in central heating and air conditioning
systems at a certain temperature that can cause Legionnaires’ disease.
** Standard geyser maximum temperature is 75°C controlled by the thermostat.

and may result in scalding. Adequate care should be taken to prevent scalding in small
