IMPORTANT INFORMATION
AND MAINTENANCE
The fan coil is connected to the electric network, any inter-
vention by personnel without specific technical skills could
cause damage to the operator, the equipment and the sur-
rounding room.
If the power goes down, the fancoil stops.
On the return of the power, the fancoil will start up again
with the same settings that it had when it stopped.
POWERING THE FAN COIL WITH ONLY SINGLE-PHASE
230 VOLT VOLTAGE
Using a different power supply could cause irreparable dama-
ge to the fan coil.
DO NOT USE THE FAN COIL IN AN IMPROPER MANNER
The fan coil may not be used to breed, deliver or raise ani-
mals.
AIRING THE ROOM
We recommend to periodically air the room where the fan
coil is installed, especially if many people occupy the room
or if there is equipment that uses gas or is a source of odour.
CORRECTLY REGULATING THE TEMPERATURE
The room temperature should be regulated in order to pro-
vide maximum comfort to the people in the room, especial-
ly if they are elderly, children or ill, avoiding sudden changes
in temperature between the outside and inside above 7 °C in
summer.
In summer, a temperature that is too low causes higher elec-
trical consumption.
CORRECTLY ADJUSTING THE AIR JET
The air that exits the fan coil must not directly strike the peo-
ple; in fact, even if at a temperature that is higher than the
room temperature, it could cause a cold sensation and resul-
ting discomfort.
CLEANING
To clean the indoor unit, use soft cloths or sponges that are
wet with water at a max of 40 °C. Do not use chemical pro-
ducts or solvents on any part of the fan coil.
Do not spray water on the external or internal surfaces of
the fan coil (this could cause a short circuit).
To clean the remote control, use a soft cloth that is slightly
moist.
EXTRAORDINARY CLEANING
Caution: with may be done only by personnel with the spe-
cific technical skills after having removed the power from
the unit, the possibility to access the components inside the
unit allows to carry out thorough cleaning of also the inter-
nal parts, which is a necessary condition for installations in
crowded areas or areas that require high standards of hygie-
ne.
CLEANING PERIODICALLY THE FILTER
Frequently cleaning the filter guarantees greater operating
efficiency.
Check if the filter is very dirty: in this case, repeat the opera-
tion more often.
Cleaning frequently, removing the dust that has built up
using a vacuum, the use of water and cleaning substances
considerably speeds up the electrostatic precharge deterio-
ration.
When the filter is clean, replace it in the fan coil, following
backwards the steps used for removing it.
REPLACING THE FILTER
The electrostatic precharge of the filter is spent after two
years of the box being opened, after this period it behaves
like a normal filter. For this reason replacement over two
years with a new one is recommended (available as a spare
part from Aermec after-sales centres).
DURING OPERATIONS
Always leave the filter mounted on the fan coil during ope-
ration, otherwise the dust in the air will dirty the coil surface
area.
WHAT IS NORMAL
During the cooling function, water vapours may exit from
the fan coil delivery slats.
During the heating function, a slight air rustle may be noti-
ceable near the fan coil. At times the fan coil may emit
unpleasant odours due to the accumulation of substances
present in the room air (especially if the room is not periodi-
cally aired, clean the filter more frequently).
MAINTENANCE
- Ordinary maintenance is reduced to periodically cleaning
the air filter, it will therefore be necessary to extract it
from the unit and then refit it after vacuum cleaning.
In cases where it is necessary to access the unit, cut off
electrical power.
- It is sufficient to remove the grille and the conveyor to
access the fan and the motor.
- To dismantle the FCA-R fan coils, remove the GLA-R, the
conveyor and the polystyrene cabinet (to drain the basin
completely, remove the rubber plug on the total conden-
sate drain SCT). For the FCA-R, the electrical box must
also be removed.
- To bleed the air from the battery, turn the screw on the
bleed nipple and keep it open until water comes out, then
close it (the single versions with four tubes and twin ver-
sions with two tubes have two bleed pipes, the twin ver-
sions with four tubes have four bleed pipes).
- To drain the battery it is necessary to get inside the unit
by removing the chassis. isolate the fan coil from the
hydraulic circuit and open the drain valve and bleed nip-
ple by undoing the screws (the single versions with four
tubes and twin versions with two tubes have two bleed
pipes and two drain valves, the twin versions with four
tubes have four bleed pipes and two drain valves).
- If condensate water comes out of the hole too quickly,
drain the basin by removing the SCT rubber cap then look
for the fault.
