Service & maintenance
1.0 Installation
1.1 Product description
Frico’s heating panels Aquaztrip can be mounted recessed in a false ceiling, with
suspended mouting or on a wall and primarily provide heating by radiation. Radiant
heating can also be used with high ceiling heights since the radiant heating, despite
the high placement, heats the underlying surfaces directly without any losses to the
air.
1.2 Handling
The panel must be handled with care, ensuring that the panel does not sustain dents,
scratches or bends during installation.
Always seek to lift the panel at multiple points.
–Do not lift in pipes
–Do not lift in edges
–Each panel is equipped with protective film to avoid any damage during transport
and handling at building site. The film needs to be removed before commissioning
the products.
1.3 Mounting instruction
–Please visit www.frico.net
1.4 Connection description water
Flow indication arrows are shown on the inlet and return pipes in order to assist the
installer. If the panel has been ordered with integrated valves, a special direction of
the flow must be upheld to ensure correct flow through the thermostatic valve. If the
panel has been delivered without integrated valves, the flow can be reversed, depend-
ing on the location of the retrofitted valve. Please note the flow direction indicator on
the valve to insure correct installation in relation to the desired flow.

Service & maintenance
1.4.1 When using push-on fittings
–Please ensure that all pipes and fittings are undamaged, as even small dents and
scratches potentially pose a risk of leakage in the system. Always remember to do
a pressure test after assembly of the pipe work.
–Both flow and return pipe is covered by a plastic or rubber protection cover, which
should be removed before installation.
After removing the protection cover, make sure that the pipe is intact and undamaged,
especially at the pipe end. Crocked or in other ways imperfect pipe ends will result
in leaks. Deburr the pipe on the inside and the outside, using a deburring tool before
installation
–Mount a push-on fitting to the pipe. Make sure to press the fitting all the way onto
the pipe. Consult the installation guide for the specific fitting for further details on
proper installation.

Notice! The connection pipes are internally soft-welded why it’s not allowed to solder
the panel to the pipes.
1.4.2 Compression fitting
–Please ensure that all pipes and fittings are undamaged, as even small dents and
scratches potentially pose a risk of leakage in the system. Always remember to do
a pressure test after assembly of the pipe work.
–While mounting a compression fitting, the pipe will be exposed to a big amount
of force, creating a risk of crushing the pipe. To ensure that the pipe won’t be
crushed when mounting the compression fitting, a copper insert should be
inserted into the pipe.
–Both flow and return pipe is covered by a plastic or rubber protection cover during
transport, which must be removed before installation.
–After removing the protection cover, make sure that the pipe is intact and undam-
aged, especially at the pipe end. Crocked or in other ways imperfect pipe ends will
result in leaks. Deburr the pipe on the inside and the outside, using a deburring
tool before installation

Service & maintenance
When using compression coupling / valve on pipe
–The copper insert should be placed inside the pipe on the panel. Always support
the connecting pipe when inserting the copper insert into position.
–Mount a compression coupling and/or a valve to the pipe. Don’t stress the nut too
much, since this may crush the pipe.
Notice! The connection pipes are internally soft-welded why it’s not allowed to solder
the panel to the pipes.

that the flexible hose is pushed fully into the fitting. Consult the installation guide
for the specific fitting for further details on proper installation.

3.0 Maintenance
The interval of cleaning depends on the indoor environment where the panel is placed.
Under optimal conditions the Aquaztrip P panels only need cleaning every 5 years.
3.1 Cleaning instructions
–Only use lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft
brush to remove any dust from the panel’s surface.

4.3 Working and test pressure
Pressure test and operation
Approval directive 97/23/EG
Pressure class PN10
Max. working pressure 10 bar
Max. test pressure with water 16 bar
Max. test pressure with air 10 bar
Recommended dynamic drive pressure <25 kPa
(*) The water circuit in the panel can withstand a drive pressure of up to 10 Bar, but
we recommend a maximum drive pressure that applies to the current control valve to
avoid noise from valves.

4.4 Water quality
–Maintenance of the system´s and the product´s water circuit should be handled by
a specialist.
–To prevent corrosion, the water circuit must be airtight.
–The water system must also be equipped with aerators to remove any build-up air
in the system.
–The water should be oxygen free, to prevent corrosion.
–The water system must be filled with potable water that complies with the “EC
directive 98/83/EC”.
–pH value of water must be between approximately 6-9 pH
–The water velocities should not exceed 1m/s, and should be kept as close to the
nominal flow as possible to minimize noise and optimize the energy yield
–There should be used in-line strainers to remove dirt particles from the water.
–If the water contains any additive inhibitor this must be appropriate to use with
copper and solder.
