Installation instructions
Installation precaution
- Do not install the water heater in a location that exposes it to gas, vapors, or dust.
- Install the cylinder and heat-pump unit on a flat, solid surface. The surface or base must be
able to support the weight of the appliance, and condensate must be able to drain freely.
- Locate the appliance in an area where noise and air flow from the appliance does not
bother the homeowner or neighbours.
- Make sure there is sufficient space around the appliance for its installation and
maintenance.
- Ensure there is no strong electromagnetic interference that may affect control functions
of the appliance.
- There is no Sulphur gas or mineral oil in the installation area which may cause corrosion of
the machine and the fittings.
- Install water pipes to ensure that they cannot fall below 0°C shall and freeze.
- The heat pump unit must be installed outside. The cylinder can be installed inside or
outside the home.
- The optimum ambient air temperature to run this appliance is 10°C to 35°C. The
appliance will still operate well outside of this range, but at a reduced capacity.
- Discharge of condensate: The condensate or water, which is formed in the heat-pump unit
during heating must be drained. The condensate drain connection is located at the bottom
of the heat-pump unit. Ensure the condensate drain has a continuous downward direction
and is free from blockages.
Keep an adequate distance between the working heat pump and bedrooms and quiet areas.
