Environmental protection and disposal
Environmental protection is one of the fundamental company policies of
the Bosch Group.
We regard quality of products, economy and environmental protection
as equal objectives. Environmental protection laws and regulations are
strictly adhered to.
To protect the environment, we use the best possible technology and
materials taking economic aspects into account.
Packaging
Where packaging is concerned, we participate in country-specific
recycling processes that ensure optimum recycling.
All of our packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be
recycled.
Used appliances
Used appliances contain valuable materials that can be recycled.
The various assemblies can be easily dismantled. Synthetic materials are
marked accordingly. Assemblies can therefore be sorted by composition
and passed on for recycling or disposal.
Old electrical and electronic appliances
This symbol means that the product must not be disposed
of with other waste, and instead must be taken to the waste
collection points for treatment, collection, recycling and
disposal.
The symbol is valid in countries where waste electrical and
electronic equipment regulations apply, e.g. "European Directive 2012/
19/EC on old electronic and electrical appliances". These regulations
define the framework for the return and recycling of old electronic
appliances that apply in each country.
As electronic devices may contain hazardous substances, it needs to be
recycled responsibly in order to minimize any potential harm to the
environment and human health. Furthermore, recycling of electronic
scrap helps preserve natural resources.
For additional information on the environmentally compatible disposal
of old electrical and electronic appliances, please contact the relevant
local authorities, your household waste disposal service or the retailer
where you purchased the product.

Technical terms
Heat pump (outdoor unit)
The central heat source. Installed in the open air. Alternative
designation: outdoor unit. Contains the cooling circuit. Heated or cooled
water is channeled from the outdoor unit to the heat pump module
(indoor unit).
Indoor unit
Installed in the building and distributes the heat from the outdoor unit to
the heating system or the DHW cylinder. Contains the control unit and
the pump in the heat transfer medium line for the outdoor unit.
Heating installation
Designation for the entire installation, comprising the heat pump, heat
pump module, DHW cylinder, heating system and accessories.
Heating system
Comprises the heat source, container, radiators, underfloor heating
system or fan convectors or a combination of these elements if the
heating system is made up of several heating circuits.
Heat. circ.
The part of the heating system that distributes the heat throughout the
various rooms. Consists of pipework, pump and radiators, heating hoses
of the underfloor heating system or fan convectors. Only one of the
specified alternatives is possible within a circuit. However, if for example
the heating system is equipped with two circuits, radiators can be
installed in one and an underfloor heating system installed in the other.
Heating circuits can be configured with and without mixers.
Heating water/domestic hot water
If domestic hot water is connected to the system, a distinction is made
between heating water and domestic hot water. The heating water is
channeled to the radiators and the underfloor heating system. Shower
and water taps are supplied with domestic hot water.
If a DHW cylinder is present in the system, the control unit switches
between heating and DHW mode so that maximum comfort is achieved.
The DHW or heating mode can be prioritised by selecting an option on
the control unit.
Heating circuit without mixer
In a heating circuit without mixer the temperature in the circuit is
controlled purely by the energy from the heat source.
Heating circuit with mixer
In a heating circuit with mixer, the mixer mixes return water from the
circuit with water from the heat pump. This allows heating circuits with
mixer to be operated at a lower temperature than the other heating
system, e.g. so that underfloor heating systems that operate at lower
temperatures can be separated from radiators that require higher
temperatures.
Mixer
The mixer is a valve that steadily mixes colder return water with hot water
from the heat source in order to achieve a specific temperature. The
mixer can be situated in a heating circuit or in the heat pump module for
the external auxiliary heater.
3-way valve
The 3-way valve distributes thermal energy to the heating circuits or the
DHW cylinder. It has two defined settings so that heating and DHW
