ATTENTION
The surface of the heat pump can be damaged! The use of inappropriate
cleaning agents can cause surface damages. Do not use cleaning agents which
can damage plastic surfaces. The use of solvents and chlorinated cleaning
agents is prohibited. Use a wet cloth and soap if needed.

Clean the heat pump with a non-abrasive moist cloth and a bit of soap.

Do not use aggressive and chlorinated cleaning agents or solvents.
8.2.2
Maintenance
Recommended checks:
•
Check the safety valve of the cold water connection
–
slightly unscrew the valve until the
water starts to flow.
•
Check the evaporator coil fins
–
the coil fins should not be dusty as this will generally reduce
the efficiency of the heat pump. If, however, the coil fins become dusty, switch off the heat
pump, loosen the screws, remove the top plastic cover and clean the fins with a vacuum
cleaner or blow through them with air. Make sure that you do not damage the fins or any
other part of the heat pump.
ATTENTION!
The coil fins are very sharp. Negligent cleaning can cause personal injuries.
Check before reporting defects to the Customer Service:
•
Check if everything is in order with the electrical connection lines.
•
Check if the air outlet from the evaporator is obstructed by the grid.
•
Measure the room temperature where the heat pump is installed and make sure that the
temperature is consistent with the prescribed temperature.
The customer service must check the Mg-anode in the water heater every two years. It is
recommended that in this time period the heat pump is also cleaned.
