Heat metering
In addition to proof of the system's efficiency, the
EEWaermeG (German law on renewable energy heat)
also requires heat metering (referred to in the following
as WmE). The WmE is mandatory for air/water heat
pumps. For brine/ water and water/water heat pumps,
a WmE must be installed for flow temperatures ≥ 35 °c.
The WmE must record the total thermal energy output
(heating and domestic hot water) in the building. In the
case of heat pumps with heat metering the analysis is
carried out via the controller. This displays the thermal
energy output into the heating system in kWh.
operation
by deciding to purchase a heat pump or a heat pump
system you are making a long-term contribution to
protecting the environment through low emissions and
reduced primary energy use.
you can operate and control the heat pump system
with the control panel of the heating and heat pump
controller.
note.
make sure that the control settings are correct.

controller.
To ensure that your heat pump or heat pump system
operates efficiently and in an environmentally friendly
way in heating mode, 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.

preferably use purge ventilation. compared
to continuously open windows, this form of
ventilation (fully opening windows for a short
period, two to three times a day) reduces energy
consumption and your heating bill.
Care of the unit
you can clean the outer surfaces of the unit with a damp
cloth and proprietary household cleaning products.
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.
Maintenance of the unit
The refrigerating circuit of the heat pump does not
require any regular maintenance.
According to EU Regulation (Ec) 842/2006 of
17.05.2006, it is necessary to carry out leak inspections
and to keep a log book for certain heat pumps!
The criteria for whether or not it is necessary to
perform a leak test and keep a log book are the hermetic
impermeability of the refrigerating circuit and the
refrigerant capacity of the heat pump! A log book is not
required for heat pumps with a refrigerant capacity of <
3kg. For all other heat pumps, the log book is supplied
with them.
log book for heat pumps, “Information on using
the log book” section.
The components of the heating circuit and the heat
source (valves, expansion vessels, circulation pumps,
filters, dirt traps) should be tested and cleaned as
needed, however, at least annually, by qualified personnel
(heating or refrigerating system fitters).
It is best to arrange a maintenance agreement with a
heating installation company. The company will arrange
the necessary regular maintenance work.
Cleaning and flushing unit Components
CautIon!
unit components may be cleaned
and flushed only by customer service
personnel authorised by the manufacturer.
only use liquids recommended by the
manufacturer.
after flushing the condenser with chemical
cleaning agent, any residues must be
neutralised and the system thoroughly
flushed with water. always note and follow
the technical data of the respective heat
exchanger manufacturer.
