4.3.2. Necessary clearance.
Minimum clearance required for heat pump installation is illustrated in the following
figure.
Figure 2: Clearance required for correct installation.
Clearance guarantees accessibility during SERIES BP heat pump maintenance and
operations.
Avoid hot air from circulating between machine distribution and suction. See Figure
2. For this purpose, avoid all situations in which there could be an obstacle to the
free flow of air produced by the fan. Specifically, pay careful attention to the
direction of strong winds in the heat pump installation area. Strictly avoid installing
the heat pump where the direction of strong wind is contrary to heat pump flow.
4.3.3. Noise wave echo.
SERIES BP heat pumps were designed with special attention to noise and
vibrations. Retail or accessory shock absorbers can be used to diminish vibrations
and noise.
Figure 3: Shock absorber supports.
To diminish noise wave echoes, avoid positioning the pump in the immediate
vicinity of vertical walls.
4.4. Disposal.
4.4.1. General instructions.
Collecting recyclable material, both those used for packaging (cardboard, nylon,
etc.) and those replaced during routine and extraordinary maintenance is
recommended.
Suitable collection of waste material for recycling, processing and environmentally
compatible disposal contributes in avoiding possible negative effects on the
environment and health and promote the reuse and/or recycling of device materials.
Illicit product disposal by the user may be punishable by current national laws.
4.4.2. Heat pump decommissioning.
When the unit reaches the end of its working life and must be removed and/or
replaced, follow the instructions below:
o Refrigerant gas must be collected by specialised technicians and sent to
collection centres.
o Compressor lubricant oil must be collected by specialised technicians and
sent to collection centres.
