Verify packaging for damage and ensure the heat pump cabinet is not scratched or damaged upon arrival.
Confirm the pressure gauge needle is within the green area before powering on the unit.
Ensure free access to fresh air for maximum efficiency; place upright, consider control panel orientation.
Mount a CCE socket for easy access and consider moving the unit indoors during winter if needed.
Maintain minimum clearances (2m above, 1m around) and consider neighborly noise levels.
Place the heat pump on a solid base, with minimum dimensions of 660 x 660mm.
Connect the earth terminal to the yellow/green conductor on the main supply cable for shock hazard reduction.
Condensed water from defrosting must be routed to sewer or cesspool, not the pool.
Product tested to current EN safety and EMC standards: EN 60335, EN 55014, EN 61000 series.
This product is CE marked, indicating compliance with relevant EU directives.
Graphical representation of heating capacity and COP versus ambient temperature for the 9.5kW model.
Install with a dedicated switch, HFI/HPFI protection, and ensure pool pump is active.
Connect via pool filter pump, use ball cocks, and install a by-pass if flow exceeds limits.
Use 50mm piping, hand-tighten unions, and install airing at highest points for level differences.
Place chlorinators/injectors after the heat pump; turn off heat exchangers during operation.
Empty the heat pump and pipes completely for winter to prevent frost damage; warranty excludes this.
Store in a shed or garage if possible. Use a sack barrow for transport; do not lay down the unit.
Maintain 2m clearance above and 1m around the unit for optimal airflow and prevent blockages.
The control panel is located on the side of the heat pump above the pipe connection.
Switch on power, push start, wait for initialization, and confirm water flow for delayed start.

Optional house and cover plate for remote control panel mounting, with a 5m extension line.
The control has 11 parameters (00-10) accessible via the 'SET' button for configuration.
Set cooling temperature (P00) and heating temperature (P01), with P01 being user-adjustable.
Parameters P02-P10 cover defrosting, system, and operational settings, primarily for technicians.
Lock or unlock the control panel by simultaneously pressing the UP and DOWN arrow buttons.
Settings related to defrosting periods, timing, and temperature thresholds for automatic defrosting.
