Yes, the Nibe Fighter 1120 has a timer feature. It allows scheduling of extra hot water on specific days and times using menus such as 7.5.0 and its submenus. It also supports timed activation of extra hot water for 3, 6, 12, or 24 hours.
In order to get the ultimate benefit from your heat pump FIGHTER 1120 you should read through this Installation and Maintenance Instruction. FIGHTER 1120 is a base heat pump for heating small houses, apartment blocks and industrial premises. Soil, rock or lakes can be used as the heat source.
System description Principle of operation FIGHTER 1120 consists of a heat pump, circulation Ground water can also be used as a heat source. This pumps and a control system for the heat pump and requires an intermediate heat exchanger. any additional heat (an immersion heater is not includ- The brine emits its heat to the refrigerant in the heat ed in the basic design).
