Installation and Handover
1. When your Baxi Ambiflo
TM
heat pump was commissioned, the
engineer should have explained the system, its function and
controls including:
•
Heating by Heat Pump
- How the heat pump heats the
property, either on its own or in conjunction with an Electrical
Heater.
•
Heating by Auxiliary Source
- The operation of any auxiliary
heating source used in conjunction with the heat pump, whether
automatic or manual.
•
Operation of the Heat Pump Controller
- A demonstration of
the basic operation of the unit and an explanation of the
controller’s icons and functions.
•
Defrosting of the Unit
- Occasionally, frost will form on the
rear of the unit across the finned heat exchanger. This is a
normal function of the Heat Pump’s operation and should not
cause concern to the user. This function is performed
automatically by the unit as and when necessary. During the
defrosting phase, water vapour may be seen around the unit as
the frost melts. The unit will return to the heating mode
automatically when the defrost phase is completed.
•
System Malfunction
- What to do in the event of a system
fault including how to isolate the electrical supply or water
supply.
•
System Maintenance
- The Baxi Ambiflo
TM
Heat Pump requires
regular maintenance to ensure its continued safe and efficient
operation. The service intervals and any maintenance required to
keep the unit in good working order.
•
Literature
- This should have been left with the user by the
commissioning engineer. These instructions explain a number of
the above points and should be retained as a reminder of how
to operate the Baxi Ambiflo
TM
heating system. If you are in any
doubt, please ask your installer for clarification, or contact the
Baxi Technical Enquiry Line, Telephone 0844 871 1568.
