❷ Installaon
2.1 I Selecng the locaon
• Installaon is only permied outdoors.
• Do not li the appliance by the body; use the dedicated points on its base (see § “1.3 I
Dimensions and marking“).
• When the appliance is installed and protected by a residual current device (RCD) with a
maximum current of 30 mA, it should be installed at a distance of at least 2 metres from the
edge of the pool.
• If no RCD is installed with the appliance, it should be installed at a distance of at least 3.5
metres from the edge of the pool.
• The appliance must be installed at a minimum distance from the pool's surrounding edge.
This distance is determined by the electrical standards which apply in the installaon country.
• Provide for a clear space around the appliance and ensure that the air inlet and outlet are not
obstructed for its correct operaon and maintenance.
• The device must be installed vercally on a stable, level, and solid surface.
• This surface must be able to bear the weight (see § “1.2 I Technical specicaons”) of the appliance (in
parcular in the case of installaon on a roof, a balcony or any other support). We recommend that the
appliance is installed on a slab which allows condensates to be piped.
The appliance must not be installed:
• With the blowing towards a permanent or temporary obstacle (awning, brushwood, etc.) less than 5 metres away,
• Within range of water or mud jets, sprays or run-o (take the eect of the wind into account),
• Near a heat source or ammable gas,
• Near high-frequency equipment,
• In a locaon where it would be subject to snow build-up,
• In a locaon where it might be ooded by the condensates produced by the appliance when operang.
Tip: to reduce noise produced by your heat pump
• Do not install it under or facing a window.
• Do not lt it towards your neighbours.
• Install it in an open space (sound waves are reected on surfaces).
• Install an acousc screen around the heat pump, respecng the distances (see diagram §”2.2 I Hydraulic
connecons”).
• Install 50 cm of exible PVC pipe at the heat pump water inlet and outlet to absorb vibraons.
