NIBE Quick Start User Guide
Welcome to your home and your NIBE heating system. This is a Swedish heating system designed to run
fully on electric power to provide you with heating and hot water.
How does it work?
You may notice white circular ducts in your kitchen and bathroom. The NIBE unit draws the warm air from
these ducts into the unit and takes the heat from the air to help provide you with heating and hot water. The
air taken out by the NIBE system is replaced by air coming into your house through ducts in the wall and is
circulated through the home via the air gap under the internal doors. This system is designed to work 24
hours a day which is the most efficient and cost effective way to heat a home.

Use Summer mode during the summer. This will tell the
unit to produce only hot water.
Use Spring/Autumn mode during the remaining year. This
will tell the unit to produce heating and hot water.
If it gets really cold you can use Winter mode and this will
allow the unit to use the electric immersion heater to boost
your heating. Using the immersion unnecessarily will
increase the running cost of your heating system.
