Installation
5.1 Indoor unit
The unit should always be installed indoors on a level, smooth
and horizontal surface. The indoor unit must be installed in a
way that allows maintenance work to be carried out from the
operator side without hindrance. This can be ensured by main-
taining a clearance of 1 m at the front. The space required (ap-
prox. 30 cm, see dimension drawing) for replacing the protec-
tive anode must be taken into consideration when determining
the required height of the installation room. It must be installed
in a room protected from frost and with short pipe runs.
ATTENTION!
In an unfilled state (buffer tank and domestic hot water
cylinder without water), the device has a tendency to tilt in the
direction of the hydraulic assembly. Do not lean on the rear of
the unit!
Setup and installation must be performed by an authorised
specialist company.

If the indoor unit is installed on an upper floor, the load-bearing
capacity of the ceiling should be checked. On account of the
acoustics, measures for isolating possible vibrations should
also be very carefully planned in advance. Installation on floors
above wooden ceilings is not recommended.

5.2 Outdoor unit
It is advisable to install the outdoor unit close to a wall, on a
foundation separate from the building with a minimum
clearance of 0.3 m on the intake side (Fig. 5.2 + Fig. 5.3).
If a canopy is mounted to protect from direct sunlight, rain
or snow it must not impede the heat exchange of the de-
vice.
In the case of a free-standing installation, the foundation is
to be connected on the intake side, flush with the device.
This will prevent snow from building up between the foun-
dation and the evaporator.
The minimum clearances (Fig. 5.2) indicated must be ad-
hered to.
When selecting an installation location, it should be en-
sured where possible that persons are not going to be in-
convenienced by the circulation of warm/cold air or by
noise emissions.
The condensate tray offers various options for the conden-
sate drain. In warmer regions, the condensate can drain
from the device freely. In regions with longer periods of
frost, a controlled condensate drain is required.
