Precautions for safety

General safety precautions
Ensure that all Local, National and International regulations are satisfied.
• Read the “Precautions for safety” carefully before installation.
• The precautions described below include the important items regarding safety – Observe them without fail.
• After the installation work has been completed, perform a test run to check for any problems. Follow the Owner’s
Manual to explain how to use and maintain the unit to the customer.
• Turn off the main power supply switch (or breaker) before unit maintenance.
• Ask the customer to keep the Installation Manual along with the Owner’s Manual.
„ Refrigerant precautions
• If a refrigerant leak is suspected contact the dealer who supplied the system, in the case of a recharge of
refrigerant ask service personnel for details of the leak and confirmation of the repairs completed.
The refrigerant used in the system is harmless.
• Generally the refrigerant does not leak, however, if the refrigerant should leak into a room and a heater or stove
burner in the room is lit, toxic gas may be generated.
• Do not install the system in a location subject to a risk of exposure to a combustible gas.
If a combustible gas leaks and stays around the unit a fire may occur.
• Install the refrigerant pipe securely during installation and before operation.
If the compressor is operated with no pipe work connected and valves open the compressor will suck air which
would result in over pressurization of the system which may result in bursting or injury.
Observe the same precautions for refrigerant recovery work (pump back procedure to outdoor unit) and do not
disconnect pipe work until refrigerant is recovered and valves closed.
WARNING
Installation precautions
• Ask an authorized dealer or qualified installation professional to install/maintain the Air to Water Heat Pump System.
Inappropriate installation may result in water leaks, electric shock or fire.
• Electrical work must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the installation manual.
An inappropriate power supply capacity or installation may result in fire.
• When completing any electrical works to the system ensure that all Local, National and International regulations are
satisfied.
Inappropriate grounding may result in electric shock.
• Ensure all electrical cables, used for the ESTIA installation, comply with all Local and National regulations. Check all
electrical terminations are secure and tight.
• Earth wire connections.
• Install an earth leakage breaker without fail.
Incomplete grounding can cause electric shock.
Do not earth wires to gas pipes, water pipes, lightning rods or telephone cable earth wires.
• This unit must be connected to the main power supply using a circuit breaker or switch with a contact separation of
at least 3 mm.
• Be sure to turn off all main power supply switches or the circuit breaker before starting any electrical work.
Ensure all power switches are off, failure to do so can cause electric shock.
Use an exclusive power circuit for the Air to Water Heat Pump system using the rated voltage.
• Ensure correct connection of interconnecting wire between Outdoor Unit and Hydro Unit.
Incorrect connection of the interconnecting cable may result in the damage of electrical parts.
• Ensure refrigeration system remains sealed to external gases and air.
Should air or other gases contaminate the refrigeration circuit, high system pressures could result in burst pipes and
injuries.
• Do not modify or bypass any of safety guards or switches in this system.
• After unpacking the outdoor unit, examine the unit carefully for any possible damage.
• Do not install in any place that might increase the vibration of the unit.
• To avoid personal injury (with sharp edges), be careful when handling parts.
