INSTALLATION - PLACEMENT OF HEATER

(continued)

Irrigation, Rainwater Runoff, and Landscape Features

•Place the heat pump away from direct rain runoff from roofs. If roof slope directs runoff into the heater, a gutter or rain shield will be required on the roof edge above the heat pump.

•Relocate or adjust irrigation to avoid water spray directly onto the heat pump.

•Do not locate the heat pump directly adjacent to plants, shrubs, or bushes. Doing so will prevent proper air circulation into the unit, and may inhibit access to the heater when service is needed.

•Consult drawings on previous page (Required Installation Clearances) for proper spacing to other objects.

Equipment Mounting Pad Requirements

•The equipment pad shall be constructed of concrete, pressure treated wood, or other material intended for the use.

•The equipment pad shall meet all requirements of authorities having code-related jurisdiction.

•The pad shall be elevated and placed to provide adequate drainage and support to the base of the heat pump. The pad should be essentially level with just enough pitch to drain condensate and any other water away from the heater.

•The pad shall extend–in all directions–(at least) 3" beyond the base of the heat pump.

•Under no circumstances shall the heater be installed directly onto the earth.

Anchoring Heater to Pad

•Follow all relevant local, state, or national requirements regarding wind load anchoring.

•When anchoring is required, use AquaCal optional Hurricane Anchoring Kits.

-AquaCal anchoring kits satisfy, completely, the very stringent Florida Building Code Section 301.13: Wind Anchoring Requirements.

-Contact AquaCal Parts Group (800-785-7751) to obtain the correct anchoring kit for the heater being installed.

-Please have the heater model number ready when contacting AquaCal Parts Group.

•As necessary, contact the AquaCal Technical Support Group (800-786-7751) for assistance in determining best method of compliance.
