4.3 Set-up
WARNING!
The set-up of the heat pump may only be car-
ried out by trained specialists.
n The heat pump must be set up indoors.
n A condensate drain must be available.
n The heat pump must be set up vertically.
n Suitable installation sites are dry, clean, frost-
free rooms with a level floor, which have a
height of no less than 2 m.
n The heat pump must be installed with all of its
surface on a firm, level base.
n The base must have sufficient load-bearing
capacity for the weight of the heat pump.
n The heat pump is to be mounted in such a way
that sufficient space is available on all sides for
purposes of installation and maintenance.
n In order to keep output losses to a minimum,
the heat pump should be set up as close as
possible to the hot water consumer.
n If the supply and exhaust air from neighbouring
rooms is to be used, ensure that no positive or
negative pressure can build up in the rooms.
n The air connections must be positioned to pre-
vent an air short circuit.
Use of a circulation system
It is not advisable to use a circulation system
because the loss per running metre of piping can
be approx. 25- 30 W
atts. However, if such a
system is installed, a timer and a thermostat
should be installed with it.
NOTICE!
T
o avoid damage to the system, the installation
location must be dry, capable of carrying the
load and frost-free.
NOTICE!
Keep the hot water heat pump and lines free of
frost
