"Installation
and maintenance regulations
The appliance must be installed and maintained by
an approved professional in accordance with current
regulations and codes of practice.
"Handling
The outdoor unit must not be placed in a horizontal
position during transport.
If not kept upright during transport, the appliance could
be damaged through displacement of the refrigerant
and damage to the compressor suspension.
Any damage caused by transportation in a horizontal
position is not covered by the warranty.
If necessary, the outdoor unit may be tilted only during
manual handling (to go through a door or up a staircase).
This operation must be conducted very carefully and the
appliance must be immediately restored to the upright
position.
"Containment of refrigeration circuits
All refrigeration circuits are sensitive to contamination
from dust and moisture. If such pollutants penetrate the
refrigeration circuit, they can affect the reliability of the
heat pump.
"Make sure that the connections and refrigeration
circuits (hydraulic unit, outdoor unit) are
protected correctly.
"In the event of a subsequent failure and following
an inspection, the presence of moisture or
foreign bodies in the compressor oil would
automatically void the warranty.
- Check upon receipt that the ttings and refrigeration
circuit caps mounted on hydraulic unit and outdoor unit
are properly seated and secured (cannot be loosened
with bare hands). If this is not the case, tighten them
using a C spanner.
- Check also that the refrigeration connections are
sealed (plastic caps or tubes crimped at the ends
and brazed). If the caps must be removed during the
installation (tubes to be re-cut for example), put them
back as soon as possible.
"Hydraulic connections
The connection must comply with industry standard
practice according to current regulations.
Remember: Seal everything when tting in accordance
with industry standard practice for plumbing work:
- Use suitable seals (bre gasket, O-ring).
- Use Teon or hemp tape.
- Use sealing paste (synthetic depending on the case).
Use glycol/water mix if the minimum ow temperature
is set below 10°C. If you are using a glycol/water
mix, arrange for an annual check on the quality
of the glycol. Use monopropylene glycol only.
The recommended concentration is 30% minimum.
Never use monoethylene glycol.
Remember: The presence at installation of a
CB-type disconnection function, for preventing heating
water being returned to the drinking water system, is
required by articles 16.7 and 16.8 of the Local Plumbing
Regulations.
"In some installations, the presence of different
metals can cause corrosion problems; the
formation of metal particles and sludge can
appear in the hydraulic circuit.
"In this case, it is advisable to use a corrosion
inhibitor in the proportions indicated by the
manufacturer.
- Please refer to the chapter "Treatment of domestic
and heating water" in our price catalogue.
"You must also ensure that treated water does
not become corrosive.

• General remarks on electrical connections
It is essential to maintain neutral-phase polarity when
making electrical connections.
Rigid wires are preferable for xed installations,
particularly in a building.
Tighten the cables using the cable glands to prevent the
feed wires from being accidentally disconnected.
The earth connection and its continuity must be ensured.
• Connecting to screw terminals
"The use of ring, spade or blade terminals or
caps is prohibited.
- Always select wire that complies with current standards.
- Bare the end of the wire to around 25 mm.
- With round end pliers, form a loop with a diameter
which matches the tightening screws on the terminal.
- Tighten the terminal screw rmly onto the loop created.
Insufcient tightening can cause overheating, leading
to breakdown or even re.

"Electrical connections
• Before any maintenance operation, ensure that
the general power supply is switched off.
• Specications of electricity supply
The electrical installation must be carried out in
accordance with current regulations.
Electrical connections will only be made once all other
installation operations (fastening, assembly, etc.) have
been completed.
"Warning!
The contract signed with the energy provider must
be sufcient not only to cover the heat pump's power
requirements but also the combined sum of all the
appliances likely to be operating at the same time. If the
power is too low, check the power rating stated in your
contract with your energy provider.
Never use a power socket for the power supply.
The heat pump must be supplied directly with power
(without external switch) by special protected leads
from the electric panel via dedicated bipolar circuit
breakers, C curve for the outdoor unit, C curve for
the electrical heating and domestic water backups
(see tables page 39).
The electrical installation must be tted with a 30mA
RCD.
This appliance is designed to operate using a nominal
voltage of 230 V +/- 10%, 50 Hz.

1.1 Packing
• 1 package: Outdoor unit.
• 1 package: Hydraulic unit and outdoor temperature
sensor.
1.2 Unpacking and supplies
While the courier is still present, carefully check the
general appearance of the appliances and check
that the outdoor unit has not been laid in a horizontal
position.
In the event of a dispute, send any relevant reservations
to the carrier in writing within 48 hours and send a copy
of the letter to Customer Services.
1.3 Denitions
- Split: The heat pump consists of two elements
(an outdoor unit to be installed outdoors and a hydraulic
unit to be installed inside the dwelling).
- Air/water: The surrounding air is the energy source.
This energy is transmitted to the heating circuit water
by the heat pump.
- Inverter: The fan and compressor speeds are
modulated according to the heating requirements.
This technology enables you to save on energy and
operate on a single-phase power supply, whatever
the heat pump's output, by avoiding pulling signicant
amounts of current at start-up.
- COP (Coefcient of Performance): This is the
relationship between the energy transmitted to the
heating circuit and consumed electrical energy.

1.6 Operating principle
The heat pump transmits the energy contained in the
surrounding air into the dwelling to be heated.
The heat pump consists of four main elements, in which
a refrigerant (R410A) circulates.
- In the evaporator (ref. 12, gure 8, page 14):
The calories are taken from the outside air and
transmitted to the refrigerant. Because it has a low
boiling point, it changes from a liquid to a vapour, even
in cold weather (down to -20°C outside temperature).
- In the compressor (ref. 9, gure 8, page 14):
The vaporised refrigerant is pressurised and takes on
even more calories.
- In the condenser (ref. 14, gure 9, page 15):
The energy of the refrigerant is transmitted to the
heating circuit. The refrigerant returns to its liquid state.
- In the expansion valve (ref. 8, gure 8, page 14):
The liqueed refrigerant is returned to a low pressure
and regains its initial temperature and pressure.
The heat pump is equipped with a controller which
controls the room temperature based on the outdoor
temperature measurement. The room thermostat
(option) provides a corrective action for the temperature
control.
The hydraulic unit is tted with an electrical backup or
boiler connection* which intervenes to provide additional
heat during the coldest periods.
• Control functions
- The heating circuit's ow temperature is controlled by
the temperature control.
- Depending on the heating ow temperature,
the outdoor unit's power is modulated by the "Inverter"
compressor.
- Control of the backup electrical heating.
- The daily timer program is used to set the periods
where the ambient temperature is comfortable or
reduced.
- Summer/winter time mode switchover is automatic.
- Management of the boiler backup*.
- Room sensor*: The room sensor provides a corrective
action for the temperature control.
- Control of a second heating circuit*.
- Domestic hot water*: Heating timer program,
management of the DHW circulation pump.
- Managing cooling*.
* Where the heat pump is tted with options and associated kits.
• Protective functions
- Anti-legionella cycle for domestic hot water.
- Frost protection: Frost protection cuts in if the heating
circuit's ow temperature falls below 5°C (provided
that the heat pump's electrical power supply is not
interrupted).

gure 11 - Heat pump operating principle
• Domestic hot water (DHW) operating principle
Two domestic hot water (DHW) temperatures can be
set: comfort and reduced.
The default DHW program is set to the comfort
temperature between 00:00 and 05:00 and between
14:30 and 17:00 and to the reduced temperature for the
rest of the day. This optimises electrical consumption
while ensuring comfortable heating and water
temperatures.
The reduced temperature setpoint may be useful to
avoid restarting the DHW too often and for too long
during the day.
The production of domestic hot water (DHW) is started
when the temperature in the tank drops to 7°C below
the temperature setpoint.
The heat pump produces the domestic hot water, which
is then additionally heated, if required, by the tank's
electrical backup or by the boiler. To ensure a DHW
setpoint over 55°C, the electrical backup heating must
be left on.
Depending on the setting, the comfort temperature can
be reached 24h/day or only at night or following the
DHW program.
If the contract signed with the energy provider includes
a day/night tariff, the electrical backup is subject to the
supplier’s power tariff and the comfort temperature may
only be reached at night.
If no particular contract has been signed, the comfort
temperature can be reached at any time, including
during the day.
The production of DHW takes priority over heating;
nevertheless the production of DHW is managed
by cycles that regulate the amount of time assigned
to heating and production of DHW in the event of
simultaneous demand.
Anti-legionella cycles can be programmed.
• Fan convectors with integrated control system
Do not use a room sensor in the area in question.

2.1 Installation of refrigeration connections
"Bend the pipes into position and make holes
for them through the oor or walls either with
their protective caps in place or after brazing.
"Keep the protective caps in place or ends brazed
until the appliance is commissioned.
The outdoor unit must be connected to the hydraulic unit
only with brand new separately insulated copper
connections (refrigerant quality).
Maintain the same pipe diameters (gure 19).
Observe the maximum and minimum distances
between the hydraulic unit and the outdoor unit
(gure 19, page 26); the guarantee of performance
and the service lifespan of the system depend on this.
The minimum length of the refrigeration connections
for correct operation is 5 m.
The appliance's warranty will be void if it is operated
with refrigeration connections less than 5 m long
(tolerance +/- 10%).
If the refrigeration connections are exposed to
weathering or UV radiation and the insulation is not
resistant, protection must be provided.

2.2 Installation of the outdoor unit
2.2.1 Installation precautions
"The outdoor unit must only be installed
outside. If a shelter is required, it must have
broad openings on all 4 sides and installation
clearances must be observed (gure 13).
• Choose the location of the appliance after discussion
with the client.
• We recommend choosing a site that is sunny but
sheltered from strong cold prevailing winds.
• The unit must be easily accessible for future installation
and maintenance work (gure 13).
• Ensure that connections to the hydraulic unit can be
made easily.
• The outdoor unit is able to withstand bad weather but
avoid installing it in a position where it is likely to be
exposed to signicant dirt or owing water (under a
defective gutter for example).
• Water may ow out of the outdoor unit when it is
operating. Do not install the unit on a paved terrace;
choose a well-drained location (e.g. gravel or sand).
If installation is carried out in an area where the
temperature stays below 0°C for long periods, check
that the presence of ice does not present any danger.
A drainage pipe can also be connected to the outdoor
unit (see gure 14).
• Nothing should obstruct the air circulation through the
evaporator and out from the fan (gure 13).
• Keep the outdoor unit away from heat sources and
ammable products.
• Make sure that the unit does not disturb the
surrounding area or inhabitants (noise level, draught,
low temperature of the ejected air freezing the plants
in its path).
