5.3 Heat pump installation
conditions:
The refrigerating system described in this manual is filled with
R32. The refrigerant R32 is a colourless, odourless and flamma-
ble gas.
Due to it having a higher density than air, R32 can accumulate
in lower-lying areas without adequate ventilation. At low con-
centrations, symptoms may include dizziness, headache, nau-
sea, and impaired coordination. There is a risk of suffocation at
higher concentrations.
In order to ensure safe operation and, above all, to prevent per-
sonal injury in the event of a leakage, certain criteria apply to the
installation site which must be met in order to minimise possi-
ble hazards to persons, property and the environment.
5.3.1 General installation conditions:
Install the heat pump in rooms with sufficient air circulation.
Do not block off any ventilation openings when installing the
heat pump.
Do not store or use flammable or combustible substances near
the heat pump.
The installation site of the heat pump must not be used as a
workplace or workshop.
Do not expose the device to high temperatures, flames, sparks
or sources of ignition (e.g. electric radiator).
The device must not be installed or operated near a naked
flame, gas-powered devices, electric heaters or any other com-
parable source of ignition.
During installation, ensure that the system is easily accessible
for maintenance and repair purposes.
The minimum amount of space for the installation room must
be observed depending on the filling quantity of the system
(see cap. 5.3.4 on page 10 Minimum room volume).
CAUTION!
The minimum amount of space for the room must also be
observed when storing the heat pump.

5.3.2 Minimum installation space
The heat pump described in this manual is a refrigerant-filled
device that must be installed in accordance with the require-
ments of EN 378-1_4:2016. With regard to the standard, it
must be ensured that the installation room is of a sufficient size
such that the limit values for toxicity and flammability are not
exceeded indoors.
When considering the minimum installation space for the room,
the filling quantity of the system is decisive. Please note that ex-
tending the connection lines of the device can result in a
changed filling quantity of the system. Therefore, check
whether the installation room is suitable, even when taking a
potentially higher refrigerant fill quantity into account. The in-
stallation room is defined as any space that contains refriger-
ant-containing parts (indoor unit, outdoor unit and refrigerant
pipes) or into which refrigerant could be released. Multiple
rooms that have suitable openings (that cannot be closed) be-
tween the individual rooms or which are connected to a com-
mon ventilation supply, return or exhaust system that does not
contain the evaporator or condenser shall be treated as a single
room.
As a general rule, care should be taken during installation work
to keep refrigerant lines to a necessary minimum.
To check the necessary conditions for installation, proceed as
follows:
Determination of the refrigerant fill quantity:
Please note that altering the refrigerant fill quantity may be nec-
essary due to the extension of the connection pipes.
Use the table below in Cap. 5.3.4 on page 10 Minimum room
volume to check whether the installation conditions are suffi-
cient for the operation of the heat pump.
