Heat Pump Water Heater Installation Guide
e) Open Ended Garage Installations.
The heat pump must be installed on
brackets as high up to the ceiling as possible with louvers fitted to direct the
cold air from the unit to fall to the floor. This allows the cold air to flow along
the floor to the outside and the heat pump receives warmer air from under the
ceiling which makes the unit considerably more efficient. The height at which
the heat pump is installed must also allow the covers to be lifted vertically
over the top of the unit for service and electrical installation.
f) Roof Mounting.
Use accessory HPRMK. Mount roof brackets onto roof
following instructions supplied with kit. Screw 2x 50x50 AL angles supplied
into side of unit. Place angles across mounting rails of roof mounting kit.
Using M10 SS bolts supplied, bolt down through anti-vibration mounts into
spring nuts in channels.
Please note:
If the heat pump is installed in a coastal situation, efforts should
be made to protect the unit from salt spray to avoid premature corrosion.
2. Pre-wiring & Pre-plumbing for Renovations & New Builds
This is required if piping and/or cables need to run through walls/floors/roof
cavities etc. Run 1x Mains cable and 1x CAT-5 UTP cable allowing an extra 2m
free play at either end. Run 2x 15mm pipes, fully insulated along their length.
Do not invert the outdoor unit to attach the
mounting feet or at any other time during
installation. This may cause damage to internal
components and may void the warranty.
!
Do not wall mount the unit on any timber
framed wall (with or without brick veneer)
!
A pre-made CAT- 5/6 cable is required
for installation of Econergy heat pumps
