4.3 Evaporator Drain
During operation, considerable amounts of condensate water will flow from the evaporator drain.
If allowed to simply flow out of the outlet, this water may pool below the unit and can cause
problems to both the water heater and area around it. The evaporator drain should be properly
drained using a length of hose or pipe but must not be connected directly to the PTR valve or
expansion valve drain.
4.2 Air Flow
The heat pump extracts heat from air, drawn through the Fin Coil. This produces cold exhaust air
as the heat from the air is absorbed into the refrigerant. In order for your Solarstream to operate
efficiently, good ventilation for the air inlet of the evaporator is required with the warmest possible
air. The cold exhaust air should not be allowed to feed back into the inlet or operational efficiency
will be reduced. The heat pump is therefore best located externally, in a well vented location and
not facing into a prevailing wind. However, alternate locations can be used such as a large double
garage (minimum of 120 cubic metres) or underneath a house as long as there is large air volume.
Corrosion Protection
Fittings to the casing in contact with water must be galvanically compatible. Sealants and / or
Teflon plumbing tape should be used on potentially galvanically incompatible fittings. This is to
protect against possible electrolytic corrosion between the metals where moisture penetration
could occur due to incorrectly or poorly sealed fittings.
