Thermann X Split Heat Pump

INSTALLATION LOCATION
• The tank unit should be located as close as possible to the most frequently used hot water
outlet. The heat pump unit must be located outside and as close as practically possible to
the tank, but not further than 15 metres distance from it.
• Ensure sucient clearance around the heat pump unit to allow air to circulate and provide
adequate space for service maintenance of the unit (Figure 2). Note: Poor ventilation may
cause the unit to short cycle and this could increase power consumption by more than
10%.
• Do not install the heat pump unit in a confined space or where intake and exhaust airflow
is compromised.
• If the heat pump unit is installed facing a wall, exhaust air may stain the wall.
• There must be adequate space between the top of heat pump to allow for access to top
controls for servicing. Note: Avoid installing heat pump unit near bedroom windows.
• The heat pump unit cannot be installed if there are obstacles such as walls in three or
more directions around the heat pump unit (see below figure).
