i-KI Commissioning with Nadi Controller 

This document must be read in association with the i-KI installation manual provided with the 
unit. The purpose of this document is to assist with the commissioning of the heat pump. It is 
essential the manual is read and followed to ensure the installation is per manufacturers 
criteria. 

 

There are various systems/set ups the Heat Pump can be installed to. This document will 
covers the most common options:

1. 

Prior to Commissioning 

A)  Ensure the heat pump is installed in accordance with the installation manual.  
B)  Ensure the power is isolated to the unit 
C) Remove the side cover of the unit to expose the water pump, compressor and electrical 

enclosure.  

D) Check that the water pump on the unit is free to turn and not seized. In addition please 

check any internal pumps.  

E)  Fill the system with water and ensure all air is removed.  

 

2.  Fill the system with water 

The system can now be filled with 
water to around 1 bar pressure.  

The iKi heat pumps have a pump 
run switch on the small PCB 
under the front cover of the heat 
pump on the smaller heat pumps, 
and under a panel on the side of 
the larger models.  This allows 
the circulation pump to be run 
manually to help vent the system. 

 

 

 

 

Leave the unit on standby for 2 hours once filled. 

Before the heat pump runs for the first time it is necessary to let it stand for 2 hours 
with the power on.  This is to allow the heating band around the compressor to heat 
the compressor to drive off any liquid refrigerant in the compressor.  This is
