12 Heat metering
In addition to proof of the unit's efficiency, the
EEWaermeG (German law promoting renewable
energy for heating) also requires heat metering
(hereinafter referred to as WME). Heat metering is
mandatory for air/water heat pumps. Heat metering for
brine/water and water/water heat pumps only has to
be installed for a flow temperature ≥35 °C. The heat
metering must record the total thermal energy output
(heating and hot water) to the building. In heat pumps
with heat metering, the evaluation is carried out by the
controller. The controller displays the thermal energy
output into the heating system in kWh.
13 Operation
Your decision to purchase a heat pump or a heat
pump system is a long-term contribution to protecting
the environment through low emissions and reduced
primary energy use.
You use the control element of the heating and heat
pump controller to operate and control the heat pump
system.
NOTE
Make sure that the controller settings are
correct.

To ensure that your heat pump or heat pump system
operates efficiently and ecologically, please pay
particular attention to the following:
€
ENERGY SAVING TIP
Avoid unnecessarily high flow temperatures.
The lower the flow temperature on the heating
water side the more efficient the system.
€
ENERGY SAVING TIP
Preferably use purge ventilation. Compared
to continuously open windows, it is better
to air rooms by fully opening windows for a
short period, two to three times a day (so-
called “purge” ventilation); this reduces en-
ergy consumption and your heating bill.
14 Care of the unit
You can use a damp cloth and standard cleaning
products to clean the outer surfaces of the unit.
Do not use cleaning or care products that contain
abrasives, acids and/or chlorine. Such products would
irreparably damage the surfaces and could also cause
technical damage to the unit.
