• Do not install the unit in the following places: - Where there is mis! of minerai oil, oil spray or vapors. Plastic parts may deteriorate, and cause !hem to corne loose or water to leak. - Where corrosive gases (such as sulphurous acid gas) are produced. Where corrosion of copper pipes or soldered parts may cause refrigerant to leak.
• If you add the backup heater in the system, the backup heater can increase the heating capacity during cold outdoor • Solar kil for domestic hot water tank(field supply) temperatures. The backup heater also serves as a backup in case of malfunclioning and for freeze protection of the outside An optional solar kil can be connecled to the unit.
