    Exhaust air duct (kitchen fan) must not be connected to F470. To prevent cooking odours being led to the F470 the distance between the kitchen fan and the exhaust air valve must be observed. The distance must not be below 1.5 m, but may vary between different installations.

  • Page 20: Ventilation Flow

    Ventilation flow Connect F470 so that all exhaust air except exhaust air duct air (kitchen fan) passes the evaporator (EP1) in the heat pump. Lowest ventilation flow must fulfill applicable national norms. For optimum heat pump performance the ventilation flow should not be less than 28 l/s (100 m3/h) at an exhaust air temperature of at least 20 °C.
