Must be provided
with a filling/top-up system connected
to the return line and a drain cock in the lowest part of
the installation.
Installations containing antifreeze
or covered by spe-
cific legislation must be fitted with water circuit discon-
nectors.
The manufacturer is not liable for obstruction, breakage
or noise resulting from the
failure to install filters
or
vibration dampers.
Particular
types of water used for filling or topping up
must be treated with appropriate treatment systems.
For reference values, see the table.
Risk of freezing
The unit must be prevented from freezing at outside air tem-
peratures around 0°C.
The following are recommended:
• use suitable percentages of antifreeze (see “Ethylene gly-
col solutions”)
• protect the piping with heating sheaths,
• empty the system, making sure no water remains at the
lowest points in the circuit or there are closed valves
where water may stagnate.
It is recommended to use non-toxic food grade antifreeze,
compliant with the standards in force in the countries where
the unit is used, if domestic hot water production is also fea-
tured.
The antifreeze used must be corrosion inhibited and com-
patible with the water circuit components.
Ethylene glycol solutions
Water and ethylene glycol solutions used as a heat carrier in
the place of water reduce the performance of the unit.
Multiply the performance figures by the values given in the
following table.
The heat pumps
must be fitted with a filling/top-up sys-
tem connected to the return line and a drain valve in the
lowest part of the system.
Systems containing antifreeze
or covered by specific
legislation must be fitted with low-loss headers.
