How To Use This Manual This manual is intended to be a comprehensive guide to the Enviromax line of vertical heat pumps. It contains in- stallation, troubleshooting, maintenance, and application information. The information contained in this manual is to be used by the installer as a guide only. This manual does not supersede or circumvent any applicable na- tional or local codes.
All Enviromax 10 heat pumps built in Sept. 2006 and later, include a number of changes to ensure more reliable operation. The date of manufacture of the Enviromax heat pump is contained in the serial number. The last two digits of the serial number are the date code; the first digit indicates...
The loss of charge switch is located on the liquid line. It opens at 35 PSIG and closes at 60 PSIG. This switch protects the Enviromax Heat Pump if there is a loss of refrigerant. See "Lockout" section below for a complete description of the operation of the loss of charge switch.

1.3 General Operation Refrigerant Cycle (Cooling Mode) The Enviromax™ HP uses R-407C refrigerant in a conventional vapor-compression refrigeration cycle to transfer heat from air in an enclosed space to the outside. A blower assembly blows indoor air across the evaporator. Liquid refrigerant passing through the evaporator is boiled into gas by heat removed from the air.
1.4 Electrical Diagrams The compressor is energized with a contactor controlled by a 24 VAC pilot signal (see Figure 2). Figure 2. Typical Electric Schematic for Models AVMC36 Enviromax, 1/06...
1. Noise. Install the unit so that the least amount of noise will be transmitted to inhabited spaces. 2. Condensate Drainage. The Enviromax heat pump can produce over 4 litres per hour of condensate during normal operation. This condensate must be disposed of to a suitable loca- tion.
Enviromax 10 heat pump. If the power supply is 225 volts or less, the toggle switch to the left of the thermostat on the side of the unit must be placed in the DOWN position.
The condensate produced during the cooling operation and water produced during the defrost cycle must be disposed of to a suitable location. To dispose of the water, a pump is factory installed in the Enviromax heat pump. The water pump is located beneath the outdoor coil in a sump. Water produced during the defrost cycle collects in the lower pan and flows into the sump. Condensate from the upper pan flows directly into the sump. When the float switch in the pump closes, water...
2. Raise the heating temperature to a setting which is higher than the room temperature. The fan and compressor should cycle on after time delay has cycled. 3. Move the system switch to the "Off" position. All functions should stop. Enviromax, 1/06...
Troubleshooting 4.1 Overview A comprehensive understanding of the operation of the Enviromax™ HP is a prerequisite to troubleshooting. Please read the Chapter 1 for basic information about the unit. Enviromax™ heat pumps are thoroughly tested before they are shipped from the factory. Of course, it is possible that a defect may escape undetected, or damage may have occurred during transportation.
1. Check for clog or restriction. unit or leaking from cabinet. 2. Obstruction or leak in condensate pan. 2. Check pan for leak or blockage. 3. Unit is not level. 3. Level unit. 4. Defective condensate pump. 4. Replace or repair pump. Enviromax, 1/06...
A short circuit at high voltages indicates a motor defect. Do not do this test under vacuum. 5. On single phase models, check the capacitor by substitution. Enviromax, 1/06...
5.2 Winter Storage If the Enviromax heat pump is to be stored in a site where temperatures can drop to 0ºC or lower, water in the sump may freeze and damage the pump. To prevent damage to the pump, remove the drain plug located at the bottom of the sump and allow the water to drain from the sump.
