It is essential for the water to come in at the connection indicated in the dimensional diagram and with the

relevant plate on the unit.

If it does not, there would be a risk of the evaporator being frozen since the antifreeze probe control would be thwarted.
The hydraulic circuit must be made in such a way as to ensure a constant flow of water to the exchanger in all operating

conditions.
If this is not done, there will be a risk of refrigerant returning to the liquid state at the compressor inlet, with the danger of it

breaking.
