    Commissioning Guide This document must be read in association with the Chofu Installation Manual provided with the unit. It is essential the manual is read and followed to ensure the installation is as per manufacturer’s criteria. The purpose of this document is to assist with the commissioning of the heat pump parameters and the connection of third party controls.
  • Page 3: Pre-Commissioning

    Pre-Commissioning Pre-Commissioning Checks Prior to Filling with water A: Ensure the heat pump is installed in accordance with the installation manual. B: Ensure the power is isolated to the unit. C: Remove the side cover of the unit to expose the water pump, compressor and electrical enclosure. D: Check the pre-charge of the expansion vessel is set to 1 bar.
  • Page 4: Heat Pump Controller

    Heat Pump Controller (connection) The Chofu heat pump controller must be installed to manage the heat pump operation. The controller is not rated for outdoor use, installation indoors in a dry place is recommended; i.e. garage or service cupboard. Terminal #1 and #2.
  • Page 5: Room Thermostat Connection

    Room Thermostat Connection (remote contact) Connect room thermostat wiring to terminals #20, #21 via the normally open contacts of the room thermostat. The thermostat requires volt free contacts to open/close terminals #20, #21. If the thermostat features a switched live output for on/off, an external relay with volt free contacts will need to be used.
  • Page 6: Heat Pump Controller Settings

    Heat Pump Controller Settings The heat pump controller must be installed to manage and configure control parameters. For install level For Install parameters hold down the 3 buttons together for 3 seconds. The parameter number (4 digits) will be displayed, and the value of the parameter.

  • Page 13: System Operational Checks

    System Operational Checks Once the heat pump is set up, it is a very good idea to check that everything works as intended and that the heat pump starts and stops when it should in response to the controls used, and there is a good flow rate at the manifolds and radiators get hot.
  • Page 14: Resetting Errors

    The procedure to reset the error display differs between error codes and there are 3 ways to reset: Auto, Power Off, and Manual. See “List of Errors codes” in the Chofu installation manual for the procedure to reset each error code.
