5. Installation

5.1 General - Heat Pump

5.2 Acoustic emissions

5.3 General - HydroBox

The  Heat  Pump  outdoor  unit  must  be  installed  on  a  permanently  even, 

smooth and horizontal surface (concrete slab). The base should be sized so 

the entire outdoor unit is directly supported.  The recommended minimum 

concrete  slab  dimensions  are  42"  long  x  32"  wide  x  6"  deep  (107  x  32 

x 15.25 cm) for mounting hardware clearances. To prevent small animals 

from  entering  the  inside  of  the  device,  the  connection  holes  in  the  base 

plate should be sealed where necessary.
The outdoor unit is designed for installation close to walls on even ground, 

and must always be fixed in place at the installation site (see dimension 

drawing, Section 12). The heat pump profile is tall and slender, so it must 

be attached permanently to the base for safety reasons.  The responsibility 

for the heat pump installation lies with the specialist system construction 

company.  During  the  installation,  local  requirements  such  as  building 

regulations, siesmic considerations, the static load of the building, and wind 

exposure must be accounted for.
If  the  unit  will  see  a  condition  where  snow  levels  exceed  15  inches  (.5 

meters) it is recommended that a snow stand be used to elevate the heat 

pump.  The snow stand must be permanently attached to the base and the 

heat pump secured to the stand for safety reasons.
If there is risk of snow or ice falling from a roof, a protective roof or cover 

must be constructed to protect the heat pump, pipes, and wiring.
It must be possible to carry out maintenance work without hindrance. This is 

ensured if the clearances displayed below are maintained.

The heat pump operates silently due to efficient sound insulation. Internal 

insulation measures should be carried out to prevent vibrations from being 

transmitted to the foundation or to the heating system.

The placement of the unit must be indoors. The HydroBox is not designed 

for outdoor or wet environments.  It is recommended that the unit be placed 

near where the interconnected piping to the outdoor unit enters the building 

to keep the piping distance to a minimum.  A maximum of 100

 

feet of 1" pipe 

can be used between the indoor and outdoor unit. For longer distances 1 

1/4" pipe can be used. However, a resistance head calculation should be 

performed based on the supplied Taco 0034e circulating pump to maintain 

the target 8gpm flow rate with the chosen pipe size and pipe.
All electrical connections can be accessed by removing the left side panel 

of the HydroBox.  Although all panels can be removed, the HydroBox was 

designed to be able to access all serviceable components and access all 

wiring connections by just removing the side panels.
It must be possible to carry out maintenance work without hindrance. This 

is ensured if the clearance displayed below is maintained.

The specified dimensions are valid for single unit installation only. (See Fig. 

6)
If multiple outdoor units are set up next to each other, the required minimum 

distance at the side adds up. Ensure that the cold expelled air is not sucked 

in again.

Note:

 The cold air is blown out downwards at the side of the heat pump 

and can result in black ice on paths and platforms.

Air Flow

Note:

 Do not restrict or block the area around the intake or the air outlet 

area.

Note:

 Observe all local building regulations!

Note:

 The physical impacts must be observed for installation close to 

walls. No windows or doors should be present in the area surrounding 

the air outlet of the fan.

Note:

 In cases of installation close to walls, there may be more sediment 

in the intake and air outlet area due to the air flow. The colder outside air 

outlet should discharge in such a way as to not increase the heat losses 

in heated neighboring rooms.

Note:

 Installation in a hollow or in an inner courtyard is not permitted 

because cooled air collects at ground level and is drawn in again by the 

heat pump during extended periods of operation.

Note:

 Do not locate where the air intake is near vented appliances (e.g. 

driers,  furnaces,  fireplaces),  moisture  producing  equipment,  vehicle 

exhaust, subject to direct salty atmospheres, where metal, powder like 

substances or chemicals are in the air that could effect the unit (include 

livestock breading areas and hot springs).
