IV. POSITIONING
Choosing the area where your heat pump will be installed is extremely important. You must respect the following
guidelines.
VENTILATION AND ACCESSIBILITY
Your heat pump works, in large part, in symbiosis with the surrounding air: it is important that there be adequate
ventilation all around the heat pump. Therefore, the device should not be installed in a closed space such as a garden
shed or a basement.
IMPORTANT: Your heat pump must have sufficient free space around it to function properly.
You should also clear any obstructions surrounding the heat pump, as indicated in the table below:
*Objects should be placed as far away as possible from the area where air is evacuated.
OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS
You should not install the device below a roof, so that your heat pump becomes buried under snow or receives too
much water if the roof is not fitted with gutters. Do not install your heat so that the sun directly hits the regulator. This
will not cause damages, but the display will be harder to read.
Similarly, you should not install automatic sprinkler near your pool heat pump. The device must be installed on a flat,
firm and level surface. A concrete slab or equivalent is preferred. Consider that your device will produce condensation,
so there will be water leaking around the unit.
It is highly recommended to use a solar blanket to cover the pool in order to reduce the heat and evaporation
loss, mainly during colder nights
