Delivery and handling
2.1
Transport and storage
L…Split must be transported and stored vertically.
NOTE
Ensure that the heat pump cannot fall
over during transport.
2.2 Assembly
● Place L…Split outdoors on a solid level base that
can take the weight, preferably a concrete founda
-
tion. If concrete slabs are used they must rest on
asphalt or shingle.
● The concrete foundation or slabs must be posi
-
tioned so that the lower edge of the evaporator is
at the level of the average local snow depth; how
-
ever, a minimum of 300 mm.
● L…Split sollte should not be positioned next to
noise sensitive walls, for example, next to a bed
-
room.
● Also ensure that the placement does not incon
-
venience the neighbours.
● L…Split must not be placed so that recirculation
of the outdoor air can occur. This causes lower
output and impaired efficiency.
● The evaporator should be sheltered from direct
wind, which negatively affects the defrosting func
-
tion. Place L…Split protected from wind against
the evaporator.
● Large amounts of condensation water, as well
as melt water from defrosting, can be produced.
Condensation water must be led off to a drain or
similar.
● Care must be exercised so that the heat pump is
not scratched during installation.
Do not place L…Split directly on the lawn or other non
solid surface.
If there is a risk of snow slip from roof, a protec
-
tive roof or cover must be erected to protect the heat
pump, pipes and wiring.
