Page 8: About Your Heat Pump
About your heat pump The heat pump is a complete heat pump installation that consists of two basic units: a heat pump placed outdoors and a control unit placed indoors. The control unit is available in three models in order to be able to create as optimal system solution as possible, both in an existing heating system that is to be upgraded and in new builds. - Page 9 3.1.2 Control unit Atec Standard Atec Total Atec Plus Position Description Control module (transparent in image) Immersion heater Reversing valve Circulation pump Water heater 3.1.3 Heating The heat pump can produce heat for heating (house, pool) and hot water. The hot water requirement is prioritised before the heating require‐...
- Page 10 Heat production is as follows; • A fan draws the outdoor air through an air heat exchanger (1), which heats up the cold refrigerant, which evaporates into a gas. • The refrigerant that is now supplied with energy in the form of heat is transferred via the 4 way valve (2) to the compressor (3), where its temperature and pressure are increased.
- Page 11 Hot water production is prioritised ahead of heat and cooling. Atec Plus is connected to an existing water heater while Atec Total has an integrated 180 litre heater equipped with a TWS coil (Tap Water Stratificator) which gives more effective heat transfer and efficient layering of water in the heater.
- Page 12 3.1.9 Auxiliary heat The auxiliary heater is included in Atec Plus and Atec Total and is available as an accessory for Atec Standard. An auxiliary heater con‐ sists of an immersion heater, which is located on the supply pipe ahead of the reversing valve.
- Page 13 7–10°C. If the differences are greater or less, the heat pump is less efficient and savings are lower. The speed controlled circulation pump in Atec always ensures that the temperature difference is retained. The control equipment detects if the balance is upset and increases or decreases the speed of the circu‐...

Page 14: Control System
Control system The heat pump has an integrated control system which automatically calculates the heating and cooling demand in the house to ensure that the correct amount of heating and cooling is produced and emitted where necessary. The control panel is operated using a keypad and information is shown in a display and by an indicator. -

tively. When you increase the CURVE value, the heat curve will become steeper and when you reduce it, it will become flatter. This is the most energy and cost efficient way to set the indoor tem‐ perature and should therefore be used for long term temperature set‐ tings. - Page 21 Parameter Description HEAT STOP This function stops all production of heat when the outdoor temperature is equal to, or higher than, the set heat stop value. SETBACK The temperature that will apply at temperature setback con‐ TEMP trolled from the CALENDAR menu. High temperatures in an underfloor heating system can damage parquet floors.
