3. General Product Information
This manual explains how to install and commission a Kensa Evo ground source heat pump.
The Evo Single Compressor Heat Pump is designed to provide a low cost renewable heat source for a build-
ings heating system. In addition, and if required, the Kensa Evo can also provide domestic hot water. Heat
pumps can provide lower running costs and will generate significantly lower carbon emissions compared
with traditional fossil fuels.
The Kensa Evo Single Compressor Heat Pump is designed for straightforward installation and requires no
specialist training to install. However the installation must conform to all relevant construction and electri-
cal codes and comply with the requirements of the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) MIS3005
