3.1-2 Inspection of the installation
Current regulations require the heating installation to be inspected before it is commissioned .
The inspection must be carried out by a suitably qualified person and should be documented. If the
heat pump is replaced, the installation must be inspected again. In the event of installation with
unvented (closed) heating systems, G3 unvented guidelines must be
followed during the install. It should be noted that the heat pump provides the first measure of
defense against high pressure/temperatures. A further 2 must be installed to comply with the G3
unvented procedures.
3.1-3 Sitting the heat pump
The unit is placed (securely fixed) outdoors on a firm base, preferably a concrete foundation. It
should not be positioned next to sensitive walls, for example, next to a bedroom. Also ensure that
the placement does not inconvenience any neighbors’.
Large amounts of condensation water as well as de-icing water from defrosting can be produced.
You must provide good drainage at the installation area and make sure the water cannot run out
onto paths or the like during periods that ice can form. Ideally, condensation water is led off to a
water drain or a suitable soak away. The distance between the unit and the exterior wall must be at
least 350 mm. The free space above must be at least one meter. The unit must not be placed in a
position so that air can re-circulate thus lowering the COP.
Care must be exercised so that the heat pump is not scratched during installation.
