3.3 Outdoor unit installation
The outdoor unit can be wall mounted or
installed on the floor.
WARNING: Slipping hazard
If drainage for condensation is
inadequate, ice can build up in winter
in the area around the outdoor unit.
- Ensure drainage for
condensation is sufficient even
at low temperatures.
- Ensure that no ice is formed,
especially around walking
surfaces and entrances around
the outdoor unit.
NOTE
Avoid installation with the broad side of
the outdoor unit facing the prevailing
wind direction. Also avoid installing the
outdoor unit in an open and exposed
location, e.g. on a flat roof. Wind can
cause problems with de-icing on the
outdoor unit in defrosting mode due to
increased heat dissipation. We
recommend installing the outdoor unit
with the rear facing a wall.

AIR BASIC 618 outdoor unit
3.4 Foundation for floorstanding
installation
NOTE
Observe the minimum clearances in
section 3.3.1.
CAUTION
A load bearing base is required for the
outdoor unit.
We recommend erecting foundation strips on site.
These must be horizontal and extend at right
angles to the front view (= side of the appliance
with access to refrigerant pipe connections and
electrical connection) of the outdoor unit to be
installed.
The thicknesses of cover are average values and
should be matched to local conditions. This must
be done in accordance with the applicable
engineering standards!
Installation on a foundation according to
the description is mandatory as ice may
form underneath the outdoor unit after
defrosting if meltwater cannot drain into the
gravel bed.
The outdoor unit must be firmly bolted
to the foundation to ensure that it
cannot tip over due to wind (see 3.4.3,
3.4.4 and 3.4.1).
Ensure that the mounting feet of the
outdoor unit are at least 300 mm clear
of the surrounding terrain. Take the
expected snow depth at the installation site into
consideration.

4 Indoor unit
Two different indoor units are available for the air/water heat pump:
-Golf Midi indoor unit
-T200 MULTI TOWER indoor unit
4.1 Golf Midi indoor unit
4.1.1 Indoor unit installation
Figure 14: Indoor unit dimensions and minimum clearances
The heat pump must be acoustically insulated from the floor. Reverberant (sound-reflecting) rooms can
increase the perceived noise emission. There is always a possibility of transmitting vibrations/noise to
adjacent rooms, which should be considered when engineering the installation. The higher the heating
output of the heat pump, the higher the sound emissions from the appliance compressor.

BA_AIR_BASIC_ELW_Multitower_OTE3_SW5x_CC_EN_V08.docx Page 20 of 92
4.1.6 System pressure/heating water
Preparation for filling:
A 24 l expansion vessel is installed in the heat
pump indoor unit. In buffer systems or systems
with higher capacity, check this vessel and, if
necessary, install an additional expansion vessel in
the system (externally, not inside the appliance).
Before filling the system, check the pre-charge
pressure in the expansion vessel. This must be
matched to the building height.
Static head: Difference between highest and
lowest points in the system
Pre-charge pressure = static head + 0.3 bar
System charge pressure = pre-charge pressure
+0.5 bar (when cold)
Max. permissible operating pressure: 3.0 bar
(safety valve)
•Flush the heating system thoroughly
before filling.
•Only fill with water of potable quality.
•Fill water harder than 16.8 °dH (3.0
mol/m³) must be softened.
Unsuitable fill- and top-up water promotes
deposits and rust formation and can damage the
system. With regard to the quality and quantity of
heating water, including filling and top-up water,
observe VDI 2035 or ÖNORM H5195-1 and 2.
