8 Maintenance / Cleaning

8.1Maintenance

To protect the paintwork, avoid leaning or putting objects on the device. External heat pump parts can be wiped with a damp cloth and domestic cleaner.

ATTENTION!

Never use cleaning agents containing sand, soda, acid or chloride as these can damage the surfaces.

To prevent faults due to sediment in the heat exchanger of the heat pump, ensure that the heat exchanger in the heating system can not be contaminated. We recommend protecting the evapo- rator by installing a bird guard in the inlet duct. At least 80% of the cross section of the grating should be open. In the event that op- erating malfunctions due to contamination still occur, the system should be cleaned as described below.

8.2Cleaning the Heating System

The ingress of oxygen into the heating water circuit may result in the formation of oxidation products (rust), particularly if steel components are used. These products enter the heating system via the valves, the circulating pumps and/or plastic pipes. It is therefore essential - in particular with respect to the piping of un- derfloor heating systems - that only diffusion-proof materials are used.

ATTENTION!

We recommend the installation of a suitable corrosion protection system to prevent the formation of deposits (e.g. rust) in the condenser of the heat pump.

Residue from lubricants and sealants may also contaminate the heating water.

In the case of severe contamination leading to a reduction in the performance of the liquifier in the heat pump, the system must be cleaned by a heating technician.

According to today's state of knowledge, we recommend using a 5 % phosphoric acid solution for cleaning purposes. However, if cleaning needs to be performed more frequently, a 5 % formic acid solution should be used.

In either case, the cleaning fluid should be at room temperature. We recommend flushing the heat exchanger in the direction op- posite to the normal flow direction.

To prevent acidic cleaning agents from entering the heating sys- tem circuit, we recommend connecting the flushing device di- rectly to the flow and return flow of the liquifier of the heat pump.

It is important that the system be thoroughly flushed using appro- priate neutralising agents to prevent any damage from being caused by cleaning agent residue remaining in the system.

Acids must be used with great care and all relevant regulations of the employers' liability insurance associations must be adhered to.

If in doubt, contact the manufacturer of the chemicals!

8.3Cleaning the Air System

Air ducts, evaporator, ventilator and condensate outflow should be cleaned of contamination (leaves, twigs, etc.) before the heat- ing period. Do this by opening the front of the heat pump. The bottom should be opened first followed by the top.

ATTENTION!

Before opening the device, ensure that all circuits are isolated from the power supply.

Remove and rehang the side panel assemblies as described in Chapter 4.

To prevent the evaporator and the condensate tray from being damaged, do not use hard or sharp objects for cleaning.

9 Faults / Trouble- Shooting

This heat pump is a quality product and is designed for trouble- free and maintenance-free operation. In the event that a fault should occur, it will be shown on the heat pump manager display. Simply consult the Faults and Trouble-shooting page in the oper- ating instructions of the heat pump manager. If you cannot cor- rect the fault yourself, please contact your after-sales service technician.

ATTENTION!

Any work on the heat pump may only be performed by authorised and qualified after-sales service technicians.

10 Decommissioning/ Disposal

Before removing the heat pump, disconnect it from the power source and close all valves. Observe all environmentally-relevant requirements regarding the recovery, recycling and disposal of materials and components in accordance with all applicable standards. Particular attention should be paid to the proper dis- posal of refrigerants and refrigeration oils.
