Installation   

Installation Scenes

Some installation scenes are presented for example. As these scenes are conceptual figures,
installer should optimize the installation scene according to the installation conditions.
This is a simple concept diagram. Refer to the water cycle(page 12,13) for installation components.

1) Floor Heating only (Without mixing tank)

Floor

heating loop

Fan coil unit 

Radiator

2) Floor Heating only (With mixing tank)

Floor

heating loop

Fan coil unit 

Radiator

WARNING

At the installation site where Hydro Kit is combined with a mixing tank, each water-circulation
pump(one is installed between Hydro Kit and the mixing tank, the other is installed between the
mixing tank and indoor units(FCU, Radiator and so on)) should be always operated
simultaneously to protect mixing tank from risk of freezing and bursting. 
All of pumps should be linked with Hydro Kit.
