weight of the heat pump. Use the product's adjustable
feet to obtain a horizontal and stable set-up.
30 - 50 mm
30 - 50 mm
15 - 40 mm
20-55 mm
■Because water comes from F1145, the area where the
heating pump is located must be equipped with floor
drainage.
■Install with its back to an outside wall, ideally in a room
where noise does not matter, in order to eliminate
noise problems. If this is not possible, avoid placing it
against a wall behind a bedroom or other room where
noise may be a problem.
■Wherever the unit is located, walls to sound sensitive
rooms should be fitted with sound insulation.
■Route pipes so they are not fixed to an internal wall
that backs on to a bedroom or living room.
Installation area
Leave a free space of 800 mm in front of the product.
Approx. 50 mm free space is required on each side, to
remove the side panels (see image). The panels do not
need to be removed during service. All service on F1145
can be carried out from the front. Leave space between
the heat pump and the wall behind (and any routing of
supply cables and pipes) to reduce the risk of any vibra-
tion being propagated.

General
Pipe installation must be carried out in accordance with
current norms and directives. F1145 can operate with a
return temperature of up to 58 °C and an outgoing
temperature from the heat pump of 70 (65 °C with only
the compressor).
F1145 is not equipped with external shut off valves; these
must be installed to facilitate any future servicing.
Caution
Ensure that incoming water is clean. When using
a private well, it may be necessary to supple-
ment with an extra water filter.
Caution
Any high points in the climate system, must be
equipped with air vents.
NOTE
The pipe system needs to be flushed out before
the heat pump is connected so that debris can-
not damage component parts.
NOTE
This installation is subject to building regulation
approval, notify the local Authority of intention
to install.
NOTE
Use only manufacturer’s recommended replace-
ment parts.
Hard water areas
Usually, there should not be a problem in installing F1145
in areas with hard water as the maximum operating
temperature is 60 °C.
Cleaning the climate system
When the water heater and the climate system have
been filled with water, F1145 must operate at maximum
normal temperature for at least one hour. Thereafter
the system must be drained of water and refilled.
Before installing the heat pump in an existing system, it
is important that the system is properly flushed through.
Even if the heat pump is to be installed in a new system,
the heat pump and system should be flushed.
NOTE
Ensure that cleaning agent has been removed
from the entire system before adding inhibitor.
After flushing an inhibitor should be used for long-term
anti-corrosion protection.
NIBE Energy Systems Limited recommends water treat-
ments (supplied by e.g. Fernox and Sentinel) specifically
designed for heat pumps.

System diagram
F1145 consists of heat pump, immersion heater, circula-
tion pumps and control system. F1145 is connected to
the brine and heating medium circuits.
In the heat pump evaporator, the brine (water mixed
with anti-freeze, glycol or ethanol) releases its energy to
the refrigerant, which is vaporised in order to be com-
pressed in the compressor. The refrigerant, of which the
temperature has now been raised, is passed to the con-
denser where it gives off its energy to the heating medi-
um circuit and, if necessary, to any docked water heater.
If there is a greater need for heating/hot water than the
compressor can provide there is an integrated immersion
heater.

Applies to PEM hose 40x2.4 PN 6.3.
These are rough example values. At installation the cor-
rect calculations must be made according to local condi-
tions.
Caution
The length of the collector hose varies depend-
ing on the rock/soil conditions, climate zone
and on the climate system (radiators or under-
floor heating).
Max length per coil for the collector should not exceed
400 m.
In those cases where it is necessary to have several col-
lectors, these should be connected in parallel with the
possibility for adjusting the flow of the relevant coil.
For surface soil heat, the hose should be buried at a
depth determined by local conditions and the distance
between the hoses should be at least 1 metre.
For several bore holes, the distance between the holes
must be determined according to local conditions.
Ensure the collector hose rises constantly towards the
heat pump to avoid air pockets. If this is not possible,
airvents should be used.
As the temperature of the brine system can fall below
0°C, it must be protected against freezing down to
-15 °C. When making the volume calculation, 1 litre of
ready mixed brine per meter of collector hose (applies
when using PEM-hose 40x2.4PN 6.3) is used as a guide
value.
Anti freeze must be mixed according to manufacturer's
instructions to ensure frost protection and should be
checked using a refractometer.
NOTE
Ensure that cleaning agent has been removed
from the entire system before the anti-freeze is
added.
NIBE Energy Systems Limited recommends water treat-
ments (supplied by e.g. Fernox and Sentinel) specifically
designed for heat pumps.
Side connection
It is possible to angle the brine connections, for connec-
tion to the side instead of top connection.
To angle out a connection:
1. Disconnect the pipe at the top connection.
2. Angle the pipe in the desired direction.
3. If necessary, cut the pipe to the desired length.
Connecting the brine side
■Insulate all indoor brine pipes against condensation.
■The level vessel must be installed at the highest point
in the brine system, on the incoming pipe before the
brine pump (Alt. 1).
If the level vessel cannot be placed at the highest point,
an expansion vessel must be used (Alt. 2).
NOTE
Note that condensation may drip from the level
vessel. Position the vessel so that this does not
harm other equipment.
■Details of the antifreeze used must be shown on the
level vessel.
■Install the enclosed safety valve under the level vessel
as illustrated. The entire length of the overflow water
pipe from the safety valve must be inclined to prevent
water pockets and must also be frost-free.
■Install shut off valves as close to the heat pump as
possible.
■Fit the supplied particle filter on the incoming pipe.
In the case of connection to an open groundwater sys-
tem, an intermediate frost-protected circuit must be
provided, because of the risk of dirt and freezing in the
evaporator. This requires an extra heat exchanger.

Connecting the climate system
A climate system is a system that regulates indoor com-
fort with the help of the control system in F1145 and for
example radiators, underfloor heating/cooling, fan
convectors etc.
■Install all required safety devices, shut-off valves (as
close to the heat pump as possible), and supplied
particle filter.
NIBE F1145Chapter 4 | Pipe connections16

■The safety valve must have a maximum 0.25 MPa (2.5
bar) opening pressure and be installed on the heating
medium return as illustrated. The entire length of the
overflow water pipe from the safety valves must be
inclined to prevent water pockets and must also be
frost proof.
■When connecting to a system with thermostats on all
radiators, a relief valve must be fitted, or some of the
thermostats must be removed to ensure sufficient flow.
Before installing the heat pump in an existing system, it
is important that the system is properly flushed through.
Even if the heat pump is to be installed in a new system,
the heat pump and system should be flushed.
NOTE
Ensure that cleaning agent has been removed
from the entire system before adding inhibitor.

Water heater
Connecting the hot water heater
NOTE
If F1145 is not docked to a water heater or if it
is to work with fixed condensing, the connection
for the water heater (XL9) must be plugged.
■Any docked hot water heater must be fitted with ne-
cessary set of valves.
■The mixing valve must be installed if the setting is
changed so that the temperature can exceed 60 °C.
■The setting for hot water is made in menu 5.1.1.
■The safety valve must have a maximum opening pres-
sure of 1.0 MPa (10.0 bar) and be installed on the in-
coming domestic water line as illustrated. The entire
length of the overflow water pipe from the safety valve
must be inclined to prevent water pockets and must
also be frost-free.
Caution
Hot water production is activated in menu 5.2
or in the start guide.
Fixed condensing
If F1145 is to work towards the water heater with fixed
condensing you must connect an external flow sensor

Ground water system
An intermediate heat exchanger is used to protect the
heat pump's exchanger from dirt. The water is released
into a buried filtration unit or a drilled well. See page 27
for more information about connecting a ground water
pump.
If this docking alternative is used, "min. brine out" in
menu 5.1.7 "br pmp al set." must be changed to a suit-
able value to prevent freezing in the heat exchanger.
Ventilation recovery
The installation can be supplemented with the exhaust
air module FLM to provide ventilation recovery.
■Pipes and other cold surfaces must be insulated with
diffusion-proof material to prevent condensation.
■The brine system must be supplied with a pressure
expansion vessel (CM3). If there is a level vessel (CM2)
this should be replaced.

Two or more climate systems
When more than one climate system, with a lower tem-
perature, is to be heated up, the following connection
can be used. The shunt valve lowers the temperature to,
for example, the under floor heating system.
The ECS 40/ECS 41 accessory is required for this connec-
tion.
T
Pool
Charging of the pool is controlled by the pool sensor. In
the case of low pool temperatures, the shuttle valve re-
verses direction and opens towards the pool exchanger.
The POOL 40 accessory is required for this connection.

Connecting hot water circulation
To reduce the risk of bacterial growth in systems with
hot water circulation, the temperature of the circulating
water should not fall below 50 °C. There should not be
any non-circulatory hot water pipes. Adjust the hot water
system so that the temperature does not fall below 50
°C at the ends of the system.
An additional expansion vessel may be requiered.

■If the building is equipped with an earth-fault breaker,
F1145 should be equipped with a separate one.
■If a miniature circuit breaker is used this should have
at least motor characteristic “C”. See page 67 for fuse
size.
■Electrical wiring diagrams for the heat pump, see sep-
arate installation handbook for electrical wiring dia-
grams.
■Communication and sensor cables to external connec-
tions must not be laid close to high current cables.
■The minimum area of communication and sensor
cables to external connections must be 0.5 mm² up to
50 m, for example EKKX or LiYY or equivalent.
■When cable routing in F1145, cable grommets (e.g.
UB1-UB3, marked in image) must be used. In UB1-UB3
the cables are inserted through the heat pump from
the back to the front.
NOTE
The switch (SF1) must not be moved to "" or
" " until the boiler has been filled with water.
Component parts of the product can be dam-
aged.
NOTE
Electrical installation and service must be carried
out under the supervision of a qualified electri-
cian. Cut the current with the circuit breaker
before carrying out any servicing. Electrical in-
stallation and wiring must be carried out in ac-
cordance with the stipulations in force.
NOTE
Check the connections, main voltage and phase
voltage before the machine is started, to prevent
damage to the heat pump electronics.
Miniature circuit-breaker
The heat pump operating circuit and a large proportion
of its internal components are internally fused by a
miniature circuit breaker (FA1).
Temperature limiter
The temperature limiter (FD1) cuts the power to the
electric additional heat if the temperature exceeds 89°C
and is reset manually.
Resetting
The temperature limiter (FD1) is accessible behind the
front cover. Reset the temperature limiter by pressing
the button (FD1-SF2) using a small screwdriver.
Temperature limiter, compressor
The temperature limiter (FD2) cuts the current supply to
the soft starter if the temperature rises above 88 °C and
is manually reset.
Resetting
The temperature limiter (FD2) is accessible behind the
front cover. Reset the temperature limiter by pressing
the button (FD2-SF2) using a small screwdriver.
Motor cut-out
Motor protection breaker (FB1) cuts the power to the
compressor if the current is too high.
Resetting
The motor protection breaker (FB1) is accessible behind
the front cover. The breaker is reset by twisting the con-
trol knob to horizontal position.
Caution
Check the miniature circuit-breaker, temperat-
ure limiter and motor protection breaker. They
may have tripped during transportation.
