Commissioning
8.1 General Information
To ensure that commissioning is performed correctly, it should
only be carried out by an after-sales service technician author-
ised by the manufacturer. This may be a condition for an addi-
tional guarantee (see warranty service).
8.2 Preparation
The following items must be checked prior to commissioning:
All of the heat pump connections must be installed as de-
scribed in chapter 7.
The heat source system and the heating circuit must have
been filled and checked.
The dirt trap must be inserted in the well water inlet of the
heat pump.
In the well water and heating circuits all valves that might
im-pair the proper flow must be open.
The heat pump manager must be adapted to the heating
system in accordance with the controller's operating in-
structions.
8.3 Commissioning procedure
The heat pump is commissioned via the heat pump manager.
ATTENTION!
Start-up must be performed in accordance with the
installation and operating instructions of the heat pump
manager.

Cleaning / maintenance
9.1 Maintenance
To prevent faults due to sediment in the heat exchangers, care
must be taken to ensure that no impurities can enter either the
heat source system or the heating system. In the event that op-
erating malfunctions due to contamination occur nevertheless,
the system should be cleaned as described below.
9.2 Cleaning the heating system
The ingress of oxygen into the heating water circuit may result
in the formation of oxidation products (rust), particularly if steel
components are used. These enter the heating system via the
valves, the circulating pumps and/or plastic pipes. A diffusion-
resistant installation is therefore essential, especially with re-
gard to the piping of underfloor heating systems.
NOTE
We recommend the installation of a suitable corrosion
protection system to prevent the formation of deposits (e.g.
rust) in the condenser of the heat pump.
Residue from lubricants and sealants may also contaminate the
heating water.
In the event of severe contamination leading to a reduction in
the performance of the liquefier in the heat pump, the system
must be cleaned by a heating technician.
Based on current information, we recommend using a 5 %
phosphoric acid solution for cleaning purposes. However, if
cleaning needs to be performed more frequently, a 5 % formic
acid solution should be used.
In both cases, the cleaning fluid should be at room tempera-
ture. We recommend flushing the heat exchanger in the direc-
tion opposite to the normal flow direction.
To prevent acidic cleaning agents from entering the heating
system circuit, we recommend connecting the flushing device
directly to the flow and return of the liquefier of the heat pump.
It is then important that the system be thoroughly flushed using
appropriate neutralising agents to prevent any damage from
being caused by cleaning agent residue remaining in the sys-
tem.
Acids must be used with care and the regulations of the em-
ployers liability insurance associations must be adhered to.
The instructions of the cleaning agent manufacturer must al-
ways be observed.
9.3 Cleaning the heat source
system
ATTENTION!
The supplied dirt trap must be inserted in the heat source inlet
of the heat pump to protect the evaporator against the ingress
of impurities.
The filter sieve of the dirt trap should be cleaned one day after
start-up. Further checks must be set according to the level of
dirt. If no more signs of contamination are evident, the filter can
be removed to reduce pressure drops.
