INSTALLATION
1 SITING
1. Ensure heat pump on site is as ordered, i.e. model, electrical supply and
factory fitted options.
2. Inspect unit for damage, in particular inspect the evaporator (finned side)
to ensure that it is undamaged. (Minor indentations in the fins do not affect
performance). If severely damaged, endorse delivery note in presence of
driver and send a recorded delivery letter to the transport company giving
details.
3. Provide a firm level base capable of supporting operational weight of unit;
spread load on timber floor.
4. Ensure water cannot collect under unit - recommend units are installed
on plinths 100mm above finished floor level and to also aid condensate
drainage.
5. Allow adequate clearance to service panels on unit; recommend 500mm
minimum (see installation drawings).
6. All Calorex heat pumps are by design as quiet as is practical, however due
consideration should be given to siting in order to fully exploit this feature,
i.e. orientate inlet/outlet parallel to occupied premises.
7. Ensure loose debris such as leaves, grass cuttings, etc will not block air inlet
grilles.
8. Consider protection from extreme weather conditions if installed externally,
i.e. lean-to-cover or building.
