Installation, Operation & Maintenance

 

 

 

VERTICAL INSTALLATION

Horizontal Unit Location

Packaged units are not designed for outdoor installation. Locate the unit in an INDOOR area that allows enough space for service personnel to perform typical maintenance or repairs without removing unit from the ceiling. Horizontal units are typically installed above a false ceiling or in a ceiling plenum. Never install units in areas subject to freezing or where humidity levels could cause cabinet condensation (such as unconditioned spaces subject to 100% outside air). Consideration should be given to access for easy removal of the filter and access panels. Provide sufficient room to make water, electrical, and duct connection(s).

If the unit is located in a confined space, such as a closet, provisions must be made for return air to freely enter the space by means of a louvered door or any other method. Any access panel screws that would be difficult to remove after the unit is installed should be removed prior to setting the unit. Refer to Figures 7a and 7b for an illustration of a typical installation. Refer to unit catalog specifications for dimensional data.

Conform to the following guidelines when selecting a unit location:

1.Provide a hinged access door in concealed-spline or plaster ceilings. Provide removable ceiling tiles in T-bar or lay-in ceilings. Refer to horizontal unit dimensions for specific series and model in unit catalog specifications. Size the access opening to accommodate the service technician during the removal or replacement of the compressor and the removal or installation of the unit itself.

2.Provide access to hanger brackets, water valves and

fittings. Provide screwdriver clearance to access panels, discharge collars and all electrical connections.

3.DO NOT obstruct the space beneath the unit with piping, electrical cables and other items that prohibit future removal of components or the unit itself.

4.Use a manual portable jack/lift to lift and support the weight of the unit during installation and servicing.

The installation of geothermal heat pump units and all associated components, parts and accessories which make up the GHP system shall be in accordance with the regulations of ALL authorities having jurisdiction and MUST conform to all applicable codes. It is the responsibility of the installing contractor to determine and comply with ALL applicable codes and regulations.

Mounting Horizontal Units

Horizontal units have hanger kits pre-installed from the factory as shown in Figure 5. Figures 7a and 7b shows a typical horizontal unit installation.

Horizontal heat pumps are typically suspended above a ceiling or within a soffit using field supplied, threaded rods sized to support the weight of the unit.

Use four (4) field supplied threaded rods and factory provided vibration isolators to suspend the unit. Hang the unit clear

of the floor slab above and support the unit by the mounting bracket assemblies only. DO NOT attach the unit flush with the floor slab above.

Pitch the unit toward the drain as shown in Figure 6 to improve the condensate drainage. On small units (less than 2.5 Tons/8.8 kW) ensure that unit pitch does not cause condensate leaks inside the cabinet.

NOTE: The top panel of a horizontal unit is a structural component. The top panel of a horizontal unit must never be removed from an installed unit unless the unit is properly supported from the bottom. Otherwise, damage to the unit cabinet may occur.

HEV/H specifications

The Heat Controller HEV/H series represents a significant advancement in heating technology, designed to provide efficient and effective climate control for both residential and commercial spaces. This innovative range of heat pumps combines cutting-edge features with user-friendly functionality to offer a reliable solution for modern heating needs.

One of the standout features of the HEV/H series is its advanced inverter technology. This system allows the heat pump to adjust its output based on the specific heating requirements of the environment. By varying the compressor's speed, the HEV/H maintains a consistent temperature while significantly reducing energy consumption. This not only lowers utility bills but also reduces environmental impact, making it a more sustainable option compared to traditional heating methods.

The HEV/H series is equipped with a high-efficiency heat exchanger, which maximizes heat transfer and enhances overall performance. This component ensures that the system can operate effectively even in colder climates, providing reliable heating throughout the winter months. Additionally, the unit’s low noise operation is designed to maintain a peaceful environment, making it suitable for bedrooms, offices, and other noise-sensitive areas.

Another notable characteristic of the HEV/H series is its smart control features. Integrated with Wi-Fi connectivity, users can conveniently manage their heating settings remotely via a smartphone app. This feature allows for customized scheduling and temperature control, ensuring optimal comfort and convenience. Users can also receive real-time notifications on energy consumption and system performance, enhancing user engagement and control.

The HEV/H series also emphasizes durability and longevity. Constructed with high-quality materials, the units are designed to withstand the rigors of daily use while requiring minimal maintenance. The incorporation of advanced filtration systems helps to improve indoor air quality by capturing dust and allergens, which is especially beneficial for individuals with allergies or respiratory issues.

In summary, the Heat Controller HEV/H series exemplifies modern heating technology with its combination of efficiency, control, and user-friendly features. Its inverter technology, high-efficiency heat exchangers, smart connectivity, and durable construction make it an outstanding choice for anyone seeking to enhance their indoor climate while being conscious of energy usage and environmental impact. Whether for a home or business, the HEV/H series is poised to deliver exceptional heating solutions tailored to diverse needs.
