Set-UP

6.1 General Information

The heat pump is designed for installation in a corner. Other in-
stallation locations are also possible in combination with an air
duct (available as an accessory) on the air outlet side.
The air-to-water heat pump must be installed in a frost-free,
dry room on an even, smooth and horizontal surface. The entire
base of the frame should lie directly on the floor to ensure an ad-
equate soundproof seal. If this is not the case, additional sound
insulation measures may be necessary.
The heat pump must be installed so that maintenance work can
be carried out without being hindered. This can be ensured by
maintaining a clearance of 1 m in front and to the left of the heat
pump. The side panel assemblies must not be covered by con-
necting pipes.
Never install the device in rooms subject to high humidity. Con-
densation can form on the heat pump and air circuit if the humid-
ity exceeds 50 % and the external temperature is below 0 °C.
Neither frost nor temperatures higher than 35 °C must occur in
the installation location at any time of the year.
If the heat pump is installed on an upper storey, the load-bearing
capacity of the ceiling should be checked. On account of the
acoustics, measures for isolating possible vibrations should also
be very carefully planned in advance as well. Installation on a
wooden floor is not recommended.

6.2 Condensed Water Pipe

Condensate that forms during operation must be drained off
frost-free. To ensure proper drainage, the heat pump must be
mounted horizontally. The condensate pipe must have a mini-
mum diameter of 50 mm and must be fed into a sewer in such a
way that it is safe from frost. Do not discharge the condensate di-
rectly into clearing tanks or cesspits, as aggressive vapours or a
condensed water pipe which has not been laid in a frost-free
manner could destroy the evaporator.

6.3 Sound

To prevent solid-borne sound from being transmitted to the heat-
ing system, a vibration-damped connection should be used for
connecting the heat pump with the heating system (install the
supplied hose connections free of strain).
Installed air ducts should be sound-isolated from the heat pump
to prevent the transmission of solid-borne sound to the ducts.
If both air openings are connected directly to a wall opening, the
ventilator terminals can be reversed from a delta to a star con-
nection (see information in the ventilator terminal box).
