APPLICATION AND LOCATION GENERAL Units are shipped completely assembled and internally wired, requiring only duct connections, thermostat wiring, 230/208 volt AC power wiring, and water piping. The equipment covered in this manual is to be installed by trained, experienced service and installation technicians. Any heat pump is more critical of proper refrigerant charge and an adequate duct system than a cooling only air conditioning unit.

FILTER This unit must not be operated without a filter. It comes equipped with a disposable filter which should be checked often and replaced if dirty. Insufficient air flow due to undersized duct systems or dirty filters can result in nuisance tripping of the high or low pressure control. Refer to Table 2 for correct air flow and static pressure requirements. (See Figure 3.) CONDENSATE DRAIN Determine where the drain line will run.
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL All wiring must be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code and local codes. In Canada, all wiring must be installed in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code and in accordance with the regulations of the authorities having jurisdiction. Power supply voltage must conform to the voltage shown on the unit serial plate. A wiring diagram of the unit is attached to the inside of the electrical cover.
THERMOSTAT INDICATOR LAMPS BLOWER CONTROL SETUP STANDARD INDICATOR LAMPS The lamp marked “EM” or “EMER.” comes on and stays on whenever the system switch is placed in the emergency heat position. The lamp marked “CHECK” or “MALF.” will flash if the high pressure switch opens and locks out compressor operation. The “CHECK” or “MALF.” lamp will come on and stay on if the low pressure switch closes and locks out compressor operation.

CLOSED LOOP (Earth Coupled Ground Loop Applications) NOTE: Most household water systems have more than enough water pressure either from the well pump of the municipal water system to overcome the pressure of head loss in 1/2 inch or 3/4 inch household plumbing.
START UP PROCEDURE FOR CLOSED LOOP SYSTEM sufficient capacity. If the module selection is correct, there is probably trapped air or a restriction in the piping circuit. 1. Be sure main power to the unit is OFF at disconnect. 8. Start the unit in cooling mode. By moving the thermostat switch to cool, fan should be set for AUTO. 2. Set thermostat system switch to OFF, fan switch to AUTO. 3. Move main power disconnect to ON.

OPEN LOOP (Well System Applications) NOTE: Unit shipped from factory with 27 PSIG low pressure switch wired into control circuit for open loop applications. WATER CONNECTIONS It is very important that an adequate supply of clean, noncorrosive water at the proper pressure be provided before the installation is made. Insufficient water, in the heating mode for example, will cause the low pressure switch to trip, shutting down the heat pump.

SYSTEM START UP PROCEDURE FOR OPEN LOOP APPLICATIONS 1. Be sure main power to the unit is OFF at disconnect. 2. Set thermostat system switch to OFF, fan switch to AUTO. 3. Move main power disconnect to ON. Except as required for safety while servicing – DO NOT OPEN THE UNIT DISCONNECT SWITCH. 4. Check system air low for obstructions. A. Move thermostat fan switch to ON. Blower runs. B. Be sure all registers and grilles are open. C. Move thermostat fan switch to AUTO. Blower should stop. 5.
4. Scale Formation. Of all the water problems, the formation of scale by ground water is by far the most common. Usually this scale is due to the formation of calcium carbonate by magnesium carbonate or calcium sulfate may also be present. Carbon dioxide gas (CO2), the carbonate of calcium and magnesium carbonate, is very soluble in water. It will remain dissolved in the water until some outside factor upsets the balance. This outside influence may be a large change in water temperature or pressure.
D. Size the pump to provide necessary GPM for the ground water heat pump. A 12 GPM or greater water flow rate is required on all modes when used on this type system. E. A pressure tank should be installed in dwelling to be heated adjacent to the ground water heat pump. A pressure switch should be installed at the tank for pump control. K. Locate the discharge high enough above high water level so the water will not back up and freeze inside the drain pipe. L.
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION COOLING When thermostat system switch is placed in COOL it completes a circuit from “R” to “O”, energizing the reversing valve solenoid. On a call for cooling, the cooling bulb completes a circuit from “R” to “Y”, energizing the compressor contactor starting the compressor. The “R” to “G” circuit for blower operation is automatically completed on any call for cooling operation, or can be energized by manual fan switch on subbase for constant air circulation.

SERVICE SERVICE HINTS 1. Caution homeowner to maintain clean air filters at tall times. Also, not to needlessly close off supply and return air registers. This reduces air flow through the system, which shortens equipment service life as well as increasing operating costs. 2. Check all power fuses or circuit breakers to be sure that they are the correct rating.
