a Ensure heat pump on site is as ordered, i.e. model, electrical supply and
factory fitted options.
b Inspect unit for damage, in particular inspect the evaporator (finned side) to
ensure that it is undamaged. (Minor indentations in the fins do not affect
performance). If severely damaged, endorse delivery note in presence of the
driver and send a recorded delivery letter to transport company giving details.
Protect unit if installation is delayed.
c Provide a firm level base capable of supporting operational weight of unit;
spread load if mounted on timber floor.
d Ensure water cannot collect under unit, it is recommend that units are
installed on plinths 100mm above finished floor level. This also aids
condensate drainage.
e Allow adequate clearance to service panels on unit; recommend 500mm
minimum.
f All Calorex heat pumps are by design as quiet as is practical, however due
consideration should be given to siting the heat pump in order to minimise
the noise coming from the machine, for example by positioning the machine
so that the inlet/outlets are parallel to occupied premises.
g Ensure loose debris such as leaves, grass cuttings, etc will not block air
inlet grilles.
h Consider protection from extreme weather conditions if installed externally,
i.e. lean-to-cover or building
