9.2 Cleaning the heating system
CAUTION!
The installed dirt traps must be cleaned at regular intervals.
The maintenance intervals should be defined according to the
degree of soiling in the system. The filter insert should also be
cleaned.
For cleaning, the heating circuit must be made pressureless in
the vicinity of the dirt trap, the filter compartment unscrewed,
and the filter insert removed and cleaned. Assembly carried out
in reverse order requires attention to correct assembly of the
screen inserts and tightness of the screw joints.
The ingress of oxygen into the heating water circuit may result
in the formation of oxidation products (rust), particularly if steel
components are used. They enter the heating system via the
valves, the circulating pumps and/or plastic pipes. It is there-
fore essential - in particular with respect to the entire pipework
- that only diffusion-resistant materials are used.
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. We recommend
equipping
diffusion-open

anti-corrosion
system).
Residue from lubricants and sealants may also contaminate the
heating water.
In the case 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 knowledge, we recommend carrying out the
cleaning with a 5 % phosphor acid or, if more frequent cleaning
is required, with a 5 % formic acid.
In either case, 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 manufacturer's instructions regarding cleaning agent must
be complied with at all times.

9.3 Cleaning the air system
The evaporator, ventilator and condensate outflow should be
cleaned of contamination (leaves, twigs, etc.) before each new
heating period.
CAUTION!
Before opening the device, ensure that all circuits are
powered down.
To prevent the evaporator and the condensate tray from being
damaged, do not use hard or sharp objects when cleaning.
Under extreme weather conditions (e.g. snow drifts), ice may
form on the air intake and air outlet grids. If this happens, the ice
must be removed in the vicinity of the air intake and air outlet
grids to ensure that the minimum air flow is maintained.
To ensure proper drainage from the condensate tray, it must be
regularly inspected and cleaned, if necessary.
All panelling can be removed to allow accessing the inside of
the device.
The two sash fasteners must be opened for this purpose. The
cover must then be slightly tilted forward and lifted off toward
the top.
