General Information, Basic Operating Principles

GENERAL INFORMATION

This manual is intended to be a general guide for care and operation of typical systems and covers the most important features you should be aware of and are responsible for as the user of the equipment.

You should request a detailed operation sequence and explanation of any special features from your installer and/or Service Company, and also have them instruct you as to any routine maintenance procedures you are responsible for.

This manual will address the basic items that should apply to all systems, and will then be separated into specific types of products to cover things unique to those product types.

AIR FILTERS

Keeping clean air filter(s) is the single most important responsibility of the user of the equipment. Each type of system must be equipped with an air filter(s) in the indoor circulating air system to clean the air, to keep the system itself clean for peak efficiency and capacity, and to prolong the useful life of the equipment. DO NOT operate the system without the proper air filters.

Filters should be inspected at least monthly, and replaced or cleaned (depending on type) as needed. The useful life of an air filter can vary widely depending upon application and use of the equipment, and it is critical to monitor filter condition and establish an acceptable maintenance schedule. Failure to do so will increase operating and repair costs, decrease capacity and efficiency, and shorten the service life of the equipment. A common symptom of a dirty filter in the cooling mode is a freeze-up of the indoor coil.

The air filters used may be a disposable (throwaway) type or may be a cleanable type that can be thoroughly cleaned, rinsed and reused many times. It is important to make sure that the correct filter size and type for your system is always used. If there is any question as to acceptable filter size or type, review the Installation Instructions for the specific equipment involved, if available. Otherwise, consult with your installing dealer or Service Company.

Most equipment can have the filters inspected and serviced by the user with no problems. In some instances, because of equipment design or specific installation conditions, it may be necessary to have this procedure done by a qualified service company. Have your installer or service company show you where the filter(s) are and demonstrate the service procedure or make arrangements for them to provide this service on an as needed basis.

BASIC OPERATING PRINCIPLES

HEAT PUMP (Water-to-Air)

These types of heat pumps are also commonly referred to as water source or geothermal systems. Just like the air source heat pump, they are refrigerant-based systems that both heats and cools using a compressor for both modes of operation. The primary difference is that the system uses water or antifreeze protected water solution instead of an air-cooled outdoor heat transfer coil, and there is no outdoor motor/fan system but instead a water pump to provide adequate water flow to the system.

COOLING MODE

The cooling mode operates similar to a refrigerator, removing heat from inside the conditioned space and rejects it outside of the space being controlled. There are three main parts of the system:

1.The evaporator (indoor) coil where cold refrigerant absorbs heat from the air, which circulates from the conditioned space, through the machine, and is returned to the space at a lower temperature and with some of the humidity (moisture) removed. The moisture exits through a condensate drain system. A motor/blower assembly moves the indoor air through the system.
