INSTALLATION OF THE HEAT PUMP AIR CURTAIN

 

The air curtain has been designed to be surface mounted inside of the building and 
located horizontally over a doorway. It must not be installed outside of the building, 
or built into a cabinet or recessed in anyway. The air curtain is intended for use as a 
heating only unit.

 

 Location 

The air curtain must be mounted so the discharge grille is 
between 1.8m minimum and 3.75m maximum above floor 
level and situated as close to the doorway as possible. 
Leave a gap of 250mm minimum above the air curtain to 
allow for pipework brazing operations. Beware of doorway 
top edges, structural beams, door opening/closure 
devices, etc. which may interfere with the air stream and 
affect the location of the unit. 

 

 Wall Fixing 

Bolt all of the wall brackets supplied to the rear face of the 
unit as shown in the adjacent picture using the M6 bolts 
supplied. Suitable wall fixing bolts (not supplied) need to 
be used to fix the brackets to the wall, taking into account 
the type of wall and the weight of the unit*, see table:

Step 1.

 Refer to Figure 1 for mounting details and drill the fixing points in the wall. 

Step 2.

 Screw in the top wall bolts leaving a small gap between the head and the wall. 

Lower the unit onto the bolts via the key-hole slots in the top of the wall brackets and then 
screw in the bottom wall bolts. 

Step 3

. Ensure all fixing bolts are tightened and the air curtain is safely secured to the 

wall. 

  Ceiling Suspension 

M10 threaded inserts are provided in the top face of the 
unit (see Figure 1 for positions) so it can be suspended on 
M10 threaded hanging rods (not provided). All suspension 
points must be used. Ensure each of the hanging rods is 
secured onto a suitable structure that can support the 
weight of the unit (see table above)

*

. Screw the hanging 

rods into the inserts by a minimum or 20mm and fit 
locking nuts (not supplied) to prevent the rod rotating and 
coming away from the casing. Do not screw the hanging 
rod too far in or it could interfere with internal components. 

 

*

 It is the sole responsibility of the installer to ensure that the 

building fixing locations and suspension system used are 
suitable for the air curtain being installed.
