1. GENERAL INFORMATION Thank you for purchasing the ECOFOREST ecoGEO heat pump. In this manual, you will find information about the installation, commissioning, maintenance and troubleshooting of the equipment. It also includes useful information for the end user, such as navigating and adjusting parameters using the front panel.
In its gaseous state, the refrigerant is denser than air, thus tending to accumulate in lower levels. If the equipment is installed in a location where it is possible that refrigerant vapour accumulates at ground level, it should be well ventilated. ECOFOREST Geotermia...
The installation and any further actions on the heating-cooling, brine and DHW circuits should be performed by authorized personnel only and in accordance with applicable local regulations and following the instructions provided in this manual. ECOFOREST Geotermia...
Each one of the three versions is available for adjustable heating outputs within the ranges 3-12 kW and 5- 22 kW, given the use of inverter compressors. 3-12 kW models are available only with single-phase power supply, while 5- 22 kW models are available with both single-phase and three-phase power supply. ECOFOREST Geotermia...
(refrigerant, antifreeze mixture and water). These circuits use different fluids; therefore, the transfer of thermal energy from one fluid to another is done by heat exchangers, where fluid at the highest temperature transfers heat to the fluid at the lowest temperature without mixing.

Its operation can be split into four sub-processes which are repeated on a cyclical basis. The antifreeze mixture is successively circulated by a circulation pump through an ground source system, where it absorbs heat from the ground, and the evaporator, where it transfers heat to the fluid in ECOFOREST Geotermia...

It allows to separate hydraulically the production (heat pump) and consume (heating-cooling system) of thermal energy. In such a way, the minimum circulation flow is guaranteed regardless of the heating-cooling system involved.

In installations using an intermediate buffer tank (BUFFER TANK scheme), the tank allows the hydraulic separation of thermal energy supply (heat pump) and consumption (heating-cooling system). Hence, flow circulation through the heat pump is guaranteed, since it is independent from the control system of the heating-cooling installation. ECOFOREST Geotermia...
