5 Set-UP

5.1General Information

The heat pump is designed for installation in a corner. Other in- stallation locations are also possible in combination with an air duct (available as an accessory) on the air outlet side.

The unit must be installed indoors on a level, smooth and hori- zontal surface. The entire base of the frame should lie directly on the floor to ensure a good soundproof seal. If this is not the case, additional sound insulation measures may be necessary.

The heat pump must be installed so that maintenance work can be carried out without being hindered. This can be ensured by maintaining a clearance of 1 m in front and to the left of the heat pump. The side panel assemblies must not be covered by connecting pipes.

Never install the device in rooms subject to high humidity. Con- densation can form on the heat pump and air circuit if the humid- ity exceeds 50 % and the external temperature is below 0 °C.

If the heat pump is installed on an upper storey, the load-bearing capacity of the ceiling should be checked. On account of the acoustics, measures for isolating possible vibrations should also be very carefully planned in advance as well. Installation on a wooden floor is not recommended.

5.2Condensed Water Pipe

Condensed water that forms during operation must be drained off frost-free. The heat pump must be mounted on a level plane to guarantee proper drainage. The condensed water pipe must have a minimum diameter of 50 mm and should be fed frost-free into a sewer. Condensate should not be discharged directly into clearing tanks and cesspits because the aggressive vapours could destroy the evaporator.

5.3Sound

To prevent solid-borne sound from being transmitted to the heat- ing system, a vibration-damped connection should be used for connecting the heat pump with the heating system (install the supplied hose connections free of strain).

Installed air ducts should be sound-isolated from the heat pump to prevent the transmission of solid-borne sound to the ducts.

If both air openings are connected directly to a wall opening, the ventilator terminals can be reversed from a delta to a star con- nection (see information in the ventilator terminal box).

6 Installation

6.1General Information

The following connections need to be established on the heat pump:

Fresh and exhaust air

Flow and return flow of the heating system

Condensate outflow

Outflow for the pressure relief valve

Power supply

6.2Air Connection

ATTENTION!

Do not restrict or block the area around the air intake or outlet.

The air intake opening of the device is solely designed for direct connection to a wall opening. The wall opening can be provided with air duct and sealing collar for this purpose. See the illustra- tion in the appendix under Installation Dimensions.

The glass fibre reinforced concrete air ducts offered as accesso- ries are moisture-resistant and diffusion-free.

The sealing collar is used to seal the air ducts on the heat pump. The air ducts are not screwed directly onto the heat pump. Only the rubber seal comes into direct contact with the heat pump when the system is installed correctly. This guarantees easy as- sembly and disassembly of the heat pump and also ensures that solid-borne sound is well insulated.

It must also be ensured that the interior side of the wall opening is lined with thermal insulation to prevent the wall from becoming cold and to prevent moisture from penetrating the wall. The en- closed fixing accessories can be used for attachment to the wall.
