INSTALLATION
5
Care must be taken during transportation and handling. Do not lay the
heat pump module down and do not tilt the heat pump module or the heat
pump and storage tank assembly more than 30° from the vertical. This will
displace the compressor lubricating oil. If the heat pump module or heat pump
and storage tank assembly has been tilted more than 30° from the vertical
during handling, it will need one hour to drain back before the power to the
water heater can be switched on, otherwise damage to the compressor may
result.
All packaging materials must be removed from the heat pump module prior to
its installation. This includes the removal of the cardboard base of the carton
from the underside of the module.
A clearance of 300 mm is required perpendicular from both the front air inlet
louvres and the outlet grille to any wall or obstruction. Refer to the dimensions
diagram on page 8.
The heat pump module must be installed on and firmly supported by a level
slab or solid base.
The water heater must not be installed in an area with a corrosive atmosphere
where chemicals are stored or where aerosol propellants are released.
Remember the air may be safe to breathe, but the chemicals may attack the
materials used in the heat pump system.
Warning: This heat pump module is designed to be installed with a purpose
built water heater storage tank and may not be used for any other purpose.
Note
These instructions cover only the installation of the heat pump module onto the
storage tank and the connections made between the heat pump module and
storage tank. Refer to the Owner‟s Guide and Installation Instructions supplied
with the storage tank for further information including:
where and how to locate the heat pump water heater
how to connect the heat pump water heater to the electricity supply and to
the plumbing system
how to operate the heat pump water heater
what to do if something goes wrong.
SAFE TRAY
Where damage to property can occur in the event of the water heater leaking,
the water heater must be installed in a safe tray. Construction, installation and
draining of a safe tray must comply with AS/NZS 3500.4 and all local codes
and regulatory authority requirements.
