1.3 Scope
1.4 Denitions
- Split: the heat pump is composed of two parts (an
outdoor unit to be located outdoors and a Hydraulic
module to be installed inside the home).
- Air/water: the outdoor air is the energy source .
This energy is transmitted to the heating water by the
heat pump.
- Inverter: the fan and compressor speeds are modulated
to suit the heat requirements. This technology
economises energy and permits operation with single
phase power supply, regardless of the power rating
of the heat pump, by avoiding high current demands
when started.
- COP (coefcient of performance: this is the ratio
between the energy transferred to the heating circuit
and the electrical energy consumed.
- hybrid: the Hydraulic module operates with dual energy
(air/water heat pump and integrated oil boiler).
- low NOx: Burner designed to minimise the emission
of Nitrogen oxides NOx in the fumes. Generally low
This heat pump permits:
- heating in winter,
- the production of sanitary hot water,
- controlling two heating circuits *,
NOx burners are considered to be burners whose
emission rate is below the most severe regulations at
that time. This limit chnages regularly according to the
regulations and technical progress.
- heating the pool*.
*: These options require the use of additional kits
(see § "optional equipment").

alfea hybrid duo heat pump oil low NOx CH
1.7 Operating principle
The heat pump transmits the energy in the outdoor air
to the home to be heated.
The heat pump is formed of four main elements inside
which a refrigerating uid circulates (R410A).
- In the the evaporator (item. 13, gure 8, page 9):
The calories are taken from the outdoor air and
transmitted to the refrigerating uid. As its boiling point
is low, it changes from the liquid state to the vapour
state, even when the weather is cold.
- --In the compressor (item 10 or 16, gure 8, page 9):
The vaporised refrigerating uid is pressurised and
thus carries more calories.
- In the condensor (item 1, gure 9): The energy in the
refrigerant is transmitted to the heating circuit. The
refrigerating uid returns to its liquid state.
- In the pressure regulator (item 9 or 15, gure 8, page 9):
The liqueed refrigerating uid is taken to low pressure
and returns to its initial temperature and pressure.
The heat pump has a regulator that controls the indoor
temperature based on the measurement of the outdoor
temperature, regulation by water logic. The ambient
sensor (optional) provides a corrective action to the
water logic.
The Hydraulic module is tted with a burner that has an
AON operation, on demand from the regulator:
- to provide additional heating during the colder
periods,
- to provide support for the domestic (DHW) or
- to take over on "Peak Tariff" days (load shedding
function or EJP, see page 30).
Priority is given to the operation of the heat pump.
When the heat pump is not sufcient for the heating, the
burner automatically takes over.
• Regulation functions
- The initial temperature of the heating circuit is
controlled by water logic.
- In function of an initial heating temperature, the power
of the outdoor unit is modulated via the "inverter"
compressor.
- Management of the supplementary heating.
- The daily timer programme allows comfort or reduced
ambient temperature periods.
- Switching between summer/winter operation is
automatic.
- Domestic hot water: Timer heating programme,
management of operation of the DHW circulation
pump.
- Ambient sensor*: The ambient sensor provides a
corrective action to the water logic.
- Management of a 2nd heating circuit*.
- Management of the heating of the swimming pool*.
*When the PAC (heat pump) is tted with associated options and kits
• Protection functions
- Anti-legionella cycle for the domestic hot water.
- A pressure switch monitors the hydraulic pressure.
If the pressure is below 0.5 bar, an error message is
displayed (369) and the heat pump is stopped.

• Operating principle of the domestic hot water
(DHW)
Two sanitary hot water temperatures (SHW)
can be programmed: comfort temperature
(line 1610 at 65 °C) and reduced temperature
(line 1612 àat40 °C).
The default DHW programme (line 560, 561, 562, 563
and 564) is set for a comfort temperature from 0h00
to 5h00 and from 15h00 to 18h00 and a reduced
temperature for the rest of the day.
The reduced temperature value may be useful to avoid
restarting the DHW too many times and for too long
through the day.
The production of domestic hot water (DHW) is started
when the temperature in the tank is 7°C below (setting
of line 5024) the reference value temperature.
The domestic hot water (DHW) is produced by the
heat pump then completed if required by the burner. To
ensure there is an DHW value higher than 45°C, the
burner must be operated.
Depending on the setting of the parameter (1620), the
comfort temperature may be reached either
- 24 h / day,
- in line with the timer programme of the heating
circuit,
- in line with the DHW timer programme,
- during the off peak periods,
- during off-peak periods and depending on the
SHW time programme.
The production of SHW has priority over heating, but the
production of SHW is managed by cycles that regulate
the time spent heating and the production of SHW when
simultaneous demands occur.
A function for switching from "reduced" to "comfort"
is available on the front panel of the user interface
(see item 1, gure 43, page 36).

appearance of the appliances, check that the outdoor
unit has not been in horizontal position.
In the event of disagreement, write to the courier within
48 hours mentioning all reserves and send a copy of
this letter to the After Sales Department.
2.3.2 Handling
The outdoor unit must not be in horizontal position
during transport.
Transport in horizontal position creates a risk of damage
to the inner tubes and the compressor suspensions.
Damage caused by transport transport in horizontal
position is not covered by the warranty.

2.3.4 Containment of refrigerant circuits
All refrigerant circuits fear contamination from dust and
moisture. If such pollutants introduced into refrigeration
circuit, they can contribute to degrade the reliability of
the heat pump.
" It’s necessary to ensure correct containment
connections and refrigerant circuits (hydraulic
unit, outdoor unit).
" In case of subsequent failure and expertise, the
nding of the presence of moisture or foreign
objects into the compressor oil would lead to
systematic exclusion of warranty.
- Check upon receipt that the ttings and the refrigeration
circuit caps mounted on hydraulic unit and outdoor unit
are properly seated and locked (impossible to loosen
bare hands). If this’s not the case, tighten them using
an against wrench.
- Check also that the refrigerant connections are
sealed (plastic caps or tubes crushed at the ends
and soldered). If the caps must be removed during
installation (tubes cut by example), put back them as
soon as possible.
2.4 Positioning
The choice of the position is particularly important
as having to move it later is a delicate operation that
requires a qualied person.
Choose the position of the outdoor unit and the hydraulic
module after discussion with the client.
Respect the max. and min. distances between the
Hydraulic module and the outdoor unit (gure 21, page
20), the performances and life of the system depend
on this.
2.5 Installation the outdoor unit
2.5.1 Installation precautions
" The outdoor unit must only be installed
outdoors. If a shelter is requried, it must have
large openings on all 4 sides and respect the
installation clearances (gure 14).
• Prefer a sunny position sheltered from strong and
cold dominant winds (mistral, tramontane, etc...).
• the appliance must be fully accessible for the
installation and later maintenance work (gure 14).
• Ensure that the connections can be made easily with
the hydraulic module.
• The outdoor unit can be exposed to the weather,
however avoid installing it in places where it will
become dirty or have excessive water dripping onto it
(under a leaky drainpipe for example).
• When operating water may escape from the outdoor
unit. Do not install the appliance on a terrace,
prefer a drained spot (bed of gravel or sand).
If the installation is in an area where the temperature
can be lower than 0°C for a long period, check that the
presence of ice does not present any danger. It is also
possible to connect a drain pipe to the outdoor unit
(see gure 15, page 16).
• No obstacles must block the air circulation through the
evaporator and from the fan.
• Keep the outdoor unit away from sources of heat or
inammable products.
• Ensure that the appliance does not disturb neighbours
or users (sound levels, draughts caused, low
temperature of the air blown out with the risk of freezing
plants in its path).
• The surface on which the outdoor unit is tted must:
- be permeable (earth, gravel bed...),
- be easily capable of supporting its weight,
- allow solid attachment,
- not transmit any vibrations to the home (anti-vibration
pins are available among the accessories).
• The wall bracket can not be used in conditions likely to
transmit vibrations, ground position is preferred.

The connection pipe must be removable.
It is strongly recommended to t a ue regulator to the
pipe when the low pressure of the chimney is greater
than 30 Pa. The ue gas case is reversible (2 screws)
and the smoke outlet axis may be offset with respect to
the axis of the boiler to the right or to the left.
The evacuation nozzle is to be connected to the pipe so
that there are no leaks.
" This appliance uses the refrigerating uid
R410A.
Respect the legislation for handling refrigerating uids.
2.7.1 Rules and precautions
• After each operation on the refrigerating circuit, and
before the nal connection, ensure that the plugs are
tted so as to avoid any pollution of the refrigerating
circuit.
• Minimum tooling required
- Set of pressure gauges (Manifold) with exible hoses
for HFC (Hydrouorocarbons).
- Vacuum gauge with isolation valves.
- Special vacuum pump for HFC (use of a classic
vacuum pump only allowed if tted with a non return
valve for the suction).
- Disengageable aring tool, tube cutter, deburrer,
wrenches,
- Approved refrigerating uid detector (sensitivity 5g/
an).
" Tooling that has been in contact with HCFC (R22
for example) or CFC may not be used.
• The manufacturer refuses all responsibility for
warranty if the above values are not respected.
• Tube expanders (ared connectors)
" Lubrication with mineral oil
(for R12, R22) is prohibited.
- Only lubricate with polyolester refrigerating oil (POE).
If POE oil is not available, t without oil.
• Brazing on the refrigerating circuit
(if required)
- Silver brazing (40% minimum recommended).
- Brazing with a dry Nitrogen stream only.
• To eliminate the swarf from the pipes, use dryNitrogen to
avoid introducing humidity that can harm the operation
of the appliance. In general, take every precaution to
avoid humidity penetrating into the appliance.
• Thermally insulate the gas and liquid pipe to avoid
all condensation. Use insulating sleeves that resist
temperatures of over 90°C. In addition, if the level
of humidity where the refrigerating pipes risks
exceeding 70%, protect them with insulating sleeves.
Use a 15 mm thicker sleeve if the humidity reaches
80%, and a 20 mm thicker sleeve if the humidity
exceeds 80%. If the recommended thicknesses are
not respected in the conditions described above,
condensation will form on the surface of the insulation.
Finally, ensure that insulating sleeves are used that
have a thermal conductivity equal to 0.045 W/mK or
lower when the temperature is equal to 20°C. The
insulation must be impermeable to resist the steam
passing during the defrosting cycles (glass wool is
prohibited).

2.7.2 Refrigerating connections
The connection between the outdoor unit and the
Hydraulic module must only be made with new copper
connectors (refrigerating quality) and individually
insulated.
Respect the diameters of the pipes and the authorised
lengths(gure 21, page 20).
If the refrigeration connections are exposed to
weathering or UV- and the insulation is not strong, it is
necessary to provide protection.
Handle the pipes and pass them through the walls with
the protection plugs in place.
If the distance between the outdoor unit and the
hydraulic unit exceeds the length of the maximum
conduits indicated in the table, an additional charge of
R410A must be loaded.
The quantity of R410A added must be suited to the
length of the refrigerating circuit so as to maintain the
performances of the heat pump and not damage the
compressor (gure 21, page 20).
2.7.3 Flaring
- Cut the tube with a tube cutter to the required length
without deforming it.
- Carefully deburr while holding the tube downwards to
avoid introducing swarf into the tube.
- Remove the are nut from the connector on the valve
to be connected and t the tube into the nut.
- Flare it leaving the tube protruding fro the expandable
aring tool.
