4.5 Mechanical Installation

4.5.1 Locating the Heat Pump

Decide on a suitable location for the Heat Pump. This should ideally be in the back of a domestic garage,

or a utility room. It should not be placed in any inhabited space or near any noise sensitive areas. The

Compact emits limited noise and vibration, and should not be placed adjacent to, or below bedrooms or

occupied spaces. Take into account the “Recommended Clearances” when finalising the location.

Check the appliance for transport damage. Under no circumstances should a damaged appliance be

operated or installed.

Position the appliance on a firm, level and substantial concrete base that will absorb vibration well away

from any occupied rooms

Ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable. If the supply cable is damaged, it

must be replaced.

Ensure all pipes and wires are adequately supported where necessary, pipes are properly insulated and

concentrations of inhibitor (where added) are correct. The appliance and any metal pipes should be prop-

erly earthed.

A water treatment device should be provided in hard water areas.
