Condensation water trough
The condensation water trough collects and leads away
most of the condensation water from the heat pump.
NOTE
It is important to the heat pump function that
condensation water is led away and that the
drain for the condensation water run off is not
positioned so that it can cause damage to the
house.
Condensation runoff should be checked regu-
larly, especially during the autumn. Clean if
necessary.
NOTE
Pipe with heating cable for draining the con-
densation water trough is not included.
To ensure this function the accessory KVR 10
should be used.
NOTE
The electrical installation and wiring must be
carried out under the supervision of an author-
ised electrician.
■
The condensation water (up to 50 litres/24 hrs) that
collects in the trough should be routed away by a pipe
to an appropriate drain, it is recommended that the
shortest outdoor stretch possible is used.
■
The section of the pipe that can be affected by frost
must be heated by the heating cable to prevent
freezing.
■
Route the pipe downward from F2040.
■
The outlet of the condensation water pipe must be at
a depth that is frost free or alternatively indoors (with
reservation for local ordinances and regulations).
■
Use a water trap for installations where air circulation
may occur in the condensation water pipe.
■
The insulation must seal against the bottom of the
condensation water trough.
Recommended alternative for leading off
condensation water
Stone caisson
LEK
Frostfritt djup
Frost proof depth
If the house has a cellar the stone caisson must be posi-
tioned so that condensation water does not affect the
house. Otherwise the stone caisson can be positioned
directly under the heat pump.
The outlet of the condensation water pipe must be at
frost free depth.
