Wrong Right
1) Keep enough space around the unit for maintenance access with at least 200mm of
clear space for evaporator coils so there is good air flow into the evaporator.
2) Ensure the heat pump is sited onto a flat, level surface. Use a 600mm x 600mm concrete
slab if the installation base is not solid.
3) Install the metal feet of the heat pump onto the rubber feet supplied and bolt it onto the
base.
4) It is a good idea to install the heat pump with some weather protection such as an eave
to protect against direct sunlight which may make the fan blade brittle over time.
5) Protect the heat pump from salt spray if near the coast as this will reduce its operating life.
6) Ensure there is space above the heat pump for the outlet air to blow upwards unimpeded.
7) The heat pump and storage tank may be installed on a balcony, roof, floor or other
convenient place but you must ensure your site has load-bearing to cope with the weight
as specified plus the weight of the water inside the storage tank (1kg per litre).
8) During operation, condensate water will flow from the evaporator so use a length of hose
connected to the drain hole elbow to take the condensate water to a drain.
9) If your only option is to locate the heat pump inside a large internal space such as a
garage, this space should be well ventilated or the heat pump will turn it into a cool room
and your heating efficiency will decrease (keep in mind that a 10 degree C reduction in
air temperature will cause approximately 20% lower efficiency).

2.4 Evaporator Drain
During operation, considerable amounts of condensate water will flow from the evaporator
drain. If allowed to simply flow out of the outlet, this water may pool below the unit and can
cause problems to both the water heater and area around it. The evaporator drain should
be properly drained using a length of hose or pipe in accordance with regulations but must
not be connected directly to the PTR valve or expansion valve drain.

2.5 Water Pipe Connections
1) Water pipe connections should be heat-resistant, rust-proof, resist fouling and conform
to national health and safety standards. The water pipe can be stainless steel pipe,
copper pipe, aluminium water pipe, hot water PPR pipes, etc.
2) Ensure all water pipes are clean and rust free to prevent pipe blockage.
3) The water circulating pipes from the heat pump should be installed with the least amount
of bending and distance from the water storage tank for optimum efficiency. We recommend
between 2m to 5m as an ideal distance for the water circulating pipes.
