Installation, Use and Maintenance
3.3.4. Condensate evacuation system
All the units have been designed so that the base of
the unit acts as a condensate drainage tray. A plastic
connector is supplied and is to be installed under the
base, to connect a hose to channel the condensation
water.
Each unit is therefore equipped with a hole on the base
of the hydronic kit on the battery side for the drainage
of any condensation that may penetrate through the
pipes of the hydraulic system. As these pipes are well
insulated, the production of condensation is minimised
and it is therefore not necessary to connect a drainage
pipe to this connection.
MORE ESPECIALLY IN THE COLDEST REGIONS, WE
RECOMMEND INSTALLING SUPPORTS TO RAISE
THE UNIT TO PREVENT ICE FROM FORMING UNDER
TDHE UNIT AND DAMAGING IT.

3.4. Installing the control unit
The Ecomod Heat Pump Control is supplied separately from the heat pump, with a specific
installation guide inside its packaging. Refer to this guide to connect this unit.
3.5. Hydraulic connections
3.5.1. Accessories to be connected to the external unit
-In the same way, the hydraulic connections must comply with good engineering practices
according to the regulations in force.
-Before making the hydraulic connections, the supply pipes must be cleaned to avoid contami-
nating the tank with metal or other types of particles.
-The Plumbing British standard must be respected.
-Check when hot that the pressure does not exceed the service pressure.

Recommendations
: for regions where the water is hard, the use of a water softener does not
imply any change in our Guarantee, provided that the softener is adjusted in line with trade
standards, and is checked and maintained regularly.
-
The water hardness must be greater than 8°f and less than 15.1°f.
3.5.2. General
The hydraulic connections must comply with the national or local regulations; the
pipes may be made or steel or galvanised steel. Flexible hoses may be used if their
diameter is larger. The dimensions of the pipes must be chosen carefully to suit the
nominal water flow rate of the appliance and the pressure drops in the hydraulic circuit.
All of the hydraulic connections must be insulated with closed-cell insulation of adequate
thickness. The unit must be connected to the pipes with new flexible hoses, not ones
that have already been used. We recommend fitting the following components in the
hydraulic circuit:
• Thermometer with sensor for the reading the temperature in the circuit.
• Manual valves to isolate the cooler from the hydraulic circuit.
• Y-shaped metal filter and filter-settler (installed on the system return pipe) with a
metal mesh not larger than 1mm.
• Loading unit and discharge valve if required
