TYPICAL INSTALLATION LAYOUT
GENERAL
The Thermann X Split Heat Pump must be installed in accordance with the following:
(1) Plumbing Code of Australia;
(2) Installed to meet AS/NZS3500.4 National plumbing and drainage (part 4) code hot
water supply systems – acceptable solutions.
(3) Installed to meet HB 263-2004 Heated water systems plumbing industry commission.
(4) Installed to meet AS/NZS 3000.4 Electrical installations (known as the Australian/New
Zealand wiring rules).
(5) The unit has been specifically designed for domestic hot water heating and is not suit-
able for any other purpose. If installed in a commercial application, then warranties will
be reduced to 1 year for both Tank, Heat pump unit and parts and labour.
(6) The unit is designed to operate when connected to the town water supply with a maxi-
mum operating pressure of 500 kPa. To ensure the mains pressure does not exceed this, a
pressure-limiting device that complies with AS1357 must be connected to the town water
supply line.
(7) This system delivers hot water exceeding 500C. Reference should be made to AS/
NZ3500. 4 and/or local regulations relating to the need for temperature tempering devices.
(8) The unit must be stored and transported in an upright position. Failure to do so may
render the unit faulty. Such failure is not covered under any warranty agreements.
INSTALLATION MUST BE CARRIED OUT ONLY BY AN AUTHORISED AND
APPROPRIATELY LICENSED PERSON.
The Thermann X Split Heat Pump is designed to eciently and eectively heat water in
domestic applications. This product is an external CO2 Heat Pump water heater. These units
are designed to be installed outside and as a kit (tank and heat pump unit).
Thermann X Split Heat Pump units are manufactured to have a factory output of 650C as
standard. Where connected directly to sanitary fixtures used primarily for the purposes of
personal hygiene, it must be fitted with an approved tempering valve into the hot water
piping to any bathroom and/or ensuite.

TIME AND BLOCK OUT SETTING
CURRENT TIME SETTING
This product contains a built-in clock as part of the water heating cycle logic and refers
to the current time. It is necessary to set the clock before starting to use the product. The
current time can be set in the 'Clock Setting Mode' as described below.
Note :
There is no need to adjust the time setting for the daylight saving period. Even if the
installation is conducted during the daylight saving period, the clock setting to the ordinary
time (not daylight saving time) is preferable.
1. Switching to Clock Setting Mode
Press the “Enter” key in the Clock Display Mode to switch to the Clock Setting Mode.
Time Display starts flashing once the mode is switched.
2. Setting the Clock
The time setting can be adjusted by pressing "▲” and “▼” keys. Fast forward and rewind
are available by pressing and holding down a key.
3. Confirming Time Setting
After the clock is adjusted to the current time, press the Enter key to confirm the
setting. The time display stops flashing and comes on once the setting is finished.
CAUTION :
The setting automatically goes back to the Clock Display Mode when no panel
operation is performed for more than 60 seconds in the Clock Setting Mode. If this
occurs, changes made will not be reflected to the setting. Depending on the set time,
the system will start its heating cycle.
Note :
If no buttons are pressed on the panel for more than 60, the display goes into sleep
mode and the Panel is blank except for the operation status light. Sleep Mode is
turned o when any button is pressed. ▲, ▼or Enter key is pressed.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Regular servicing will help to extend the life
of the water heater, and keep it operating
safely and eciently. Your water heater
warranty is not conditional on completing
the regular servicing recommended in this
manual.
Six Month Service:
This service may be carried out by the
owner.
1. Stand clear of the Pressure &
Temperature Relief (PTR) Valve drain
pipe outlet.
2. Open the PTR Valve for approximately
10 seconds by lifting the easing lever
on the valve. Confirm water discharges
to waste through the drain pipe.
3. Lower the easing lever gently and
check it closes correctly.
Other than this, personally inspecting or
servicing any part of your water heater is
not recommended
Five Year Service (All Water Heaters):
This service should only be carried out
by a licensed tradesperson. In locations
where the water has Total Dissolved Solids
(TDS) exceeding 600 mg/L, this service is
recommended every 3 years.
The service should include the following:
• Replace the PTR Valve.
• Replace the anode
• Drain and flush the water heater
CONSIDERING A SERVICE CALL?
It is recommended that the following points
be reviewed before making a service call:
No Hot Water:
• If you have a heat pump water heater,
ensure that the power supply circuit
breaker has not “tripped”. If your water
heater is on a timed tari such as o-
peak, ensure this is operating correctly.
High Electricity Bills or Insucient Hot
Water:
• Often the hot water usage of showers,
washing machines and dishwashers
can be under estimated. Review these
appliances to determine if your daily
usage is greater than the capability of
your water heater.
• If necessary check the shower flow
rates with a bucket, measuring the
amount of water used over that period
of time. If it is not possible to adjust
water usage patterns, an inexpensive
flow control valve can easily be fitted
to the shower outlet.
• Do you have the correct size water
heater for your requirements? Sizing
details are available from your local
Reece branch.
• Is there a leaking hot water pipe or
dripping hot water tap? A small leak
can waste a large quantity of hot
water. Replace faulty tap washers and
have your plumber rectify any leaking
pipe work.
• Is the Pressure & Temperature Relief
Valve discharging too much water? See
below.
Continuous Trickle of Water from Pressure
& Temperature Relief (PTR) Valve:
This is most likely due to a build up of
foreign matter. In this case, try gently
raising the easing lever on the PTR Valve
for a few seconds, then release gently. This
may dislodge a small particle of foreign
matter and rectify the fault.
Water Discharge from PTR Valve:
It is not unusual for a small quantity of
water to discharge during the heating of
water in your storage tank. The amount of
discharge will depend on hot water usage
and size of the storage tank. As a guide, it
will discharge about 2% of the volume of
the water heated. Continuous leakage of
water from the PTR Valve may indicate a
problem with the water heater. Turn o or
shut down the water heater and contact
Customer Service.

TECHNICAL DATA - TANK
Tank Specifications
WATER SUPPLY QUALITY
CHLORIDE, WATER HARDNESS AND PH
In high chloride water supply areas, the water can corrode some parts and cause them to
fail. Where the chloride level exceeds 200 mg/litre or Water Hardness level exceeds 200
mg/litre, warranty does not apply to the heat pump unit and tank unit. pH is a measure
of whether the water is alkaline or acidic. In an acidic water supply, the water can corrode
some parts and cause them to fail.
No warranty applies to the heat pump unit and tank unit where the pH is less than 6.5 or
more than 8. The water supply from a rainwater tank unit in a metropolitan area is likely to
be corrosive due to the dissolution of atmospheric contaminants.
Water with a pH less than 6.5 may be treated to raise the pH. It is recommended that an
analysis of the water from a rainwater tank be conducted before connecting this type of
water supply to the system.

CHANGE OF WATER SUPPLY
Changing, or alternating, from one water supply to another can have a detrimental
eect on the operation and/or life expectancy of the water tank unit cylinder, PTR valve,
water heating circulation and the water heat exchanger in the system. Where there is
a changeover from one water supply to another, for example, a rainwater tank supply,
desalinated water supply, public reticulated water supply or water brought in from another
supply, then water chemistry information should be sought from the supplier or the water
should be tested to ensure it meets the warranty requirements in this installation manual.
