1.2 Denitions
- Split: The heat pump consists of two elements
(an outdoor unit for outdoor and a hydraulic unit for
inside the dwelling).
- Air/water: The surrounding air is the energy source.
This energy is transmitted to the water in the heating
circuit by the heat pump.
- Inverter: the fan and compressor speeds are modulated
according to the heating requirements. This technology
enables you to save on energy and operate on a singlephase power supply, whatever the heat pump's output,
by avoiding heavy intensities on start-up.
- COP (coefcient of performance): this is the relationship
between the energy transmitted to the heating circuit
and electrical energy consumed.

1.5 Operating principle
The heat pump transmits the energy contained in the
surrounding air into the dwelling to be heated.
The heat pump consists of four main elements, in which
a refrigerant uid (R410A) circulates.
- In the evaporator (ref. 13, gure 6, page 9) :
The energy is taken from the surrounding air and is
transmitted to the refrigerant. Because it has a low
boiling point, it changes from the liquid state to the
vapour state, even in cold weather (down to -15 °C
outdoor temperature).
- In the compressor (ref. 10, gure 6, page 9) :
The vaporised refrigerant brought to high pressure
and takes on more calories.
- In the condenser (ref. 15, gure 7) :
The energy in the refrigerant is transmitted to the
heating circuit. The refrigerant returns to liquid state.
- In the expansion valve (ref. 9, gure 6, page 9) :
The lique ed refrigerant is brought back to low pressure
and returns to its initial temperature and pressure.
The heat pump is equipped with a controller, which
controls the room temperature based on the outdoor
temperature measurement and governed by the
temperature control. The room thermostat (option)
provides a corrective action for the temperature control.
The hydraulic unit can be optionally tted with an
electrical back-up system or boiler connection which
starts up in order to provide addtional heating during the
coldest periods.
• Regulation functions
- The heating circuit's initial temperature is controlled by
the temperature control.
- The power of the outdoor unit is modulated according
to ow heating temperature via the "inverter"
compressor.
- Control of the electrical back-up heating (option).
- The daily timer program enables you to de ne
the periods for comfortable or reduced ambient
temperature.
- Summer/winter mode switchover is automatic.
- Control of the supplementary boiler* (option).
- The room thermostat (option)*: provides a corrective
action for the temperature control.
- Control of a second heating circuit*.
- Domestic hot water: Heating time programme, control
of the operation of the DHW circulation pump.
- Managing the cooling*.
- Control of swimming pool heating*.
* If the heat pump is equipped with optional equipment and the
associated kits.
• Protection functions
- Anti-legionella cycle for domestic hot water.
- Anti-corrosion protection with titanium anode (ACI).
- Frost protection: Frost protection cuts in if the low-
temperature point of the heating circuit falls below 5 °C
(provided that the heat pump's electrical power supply
is not interrupted).

Installation and operating manual "1572 - EN"
Heat pump air/water split 2 services alféa excellia duo
• Domestic hot water (DHW) operating principle
Two domestic hot water (DHW) temperatures can be
parametered: nominal temperature (line 1610 to 55 °C)
and reduced temperature (line 1612 to 40 °C).
The default heat pump program (line 560, 561 and 562)
is set for nominal temperature from 0:00 to 5:00 and
from 14:30 to 17:00 and for reduced temperature for the
rest of the day. This optimizes electrical consumption
while ensuring comfortable availability of hot water.
Setting for reduced temperature can be useful to prevent
the DHW from switching on too often and for too long
during the day.
The production of domestic hot water (DHW) is triggered
when the temperature in the tank falls 7°C (setting from
line 5024) below the set temperature.
The heat pump produces the domestic hot water, which
is then additively heated, if required, by electrical backup heating inside the tank. To ensure a DHW setting
over 45°C, the electrical back-up heating or the boiler
must be left on.
Depending on how the parameter (1620) is set, nominal
temperature can be reached 24h/day or only at night or
depending on the heat pump programme.
If the contract concluded with the energy provider
includes a subscription to day/night tariff, the electrical
backup is subordinate to the supplier’s power tariff and
the comfort temperature may only be reached at night.
If no particular contract is concluded, the comfort
temperature can be reached at any time, including
during the day
The production of DHW takes priority over heating;
nevertheless the production of DHW is controlled by
cycles that control the times assigned to the heating
and the production of DHW in the event of simultaneous
demand.
A function to switch from "reduced" to "nominal"
is provided on the front of the user interface.
(see ref. 1, gure 42, page 38).
Anti-legionella cycles can be programmed.

2 Installation
2.1 Regulation installation
and maintenance conditions
The appliance must be installed and the maintained
by an approved professional in accordance with the
prevailing regulations and code of practice, in particular:
- The legislation on the handling of refrigerants.
- Heating installation with oor heating system.
- Low voltage electrical installations - Rules.
2.2 Unpacking and reservations
2.2.1 Receipt
Carefully check, in the carrier's presence, the general
appearance of the appliances and check that the
outdoor unit is not laid on its side or back.
In the case of any dispute, state any appropriate
reservations to the carrier in writing within 48 hours and
send a copy of this letter to the After-Sales service.
2.2.2 Handling
The outdoor unit should not be laid on its side or back
during transport.
If not kept upright during transport, the appliance could
be damaged through displacement of the refrigerant
and deformation of the compressor suspension.
Any damage caused by transportation of the unit lying
down is not covered by the warranty.
If necessary the outdoor unit may be tilted only during
manual handling (to go through a door or use a staircase).
This operation must be conducted very carefully and
the appliance must be immediately restored to upright
position.
2.2.3 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.

2.3 Installation position
The choice of the position for installation is particularly
important insofar as any later movement is a delicate
operation requiring the intervention of a qualied person.
Choose the site of the outdoor unit and the hydraulic
unit after discussion with the customer.
Observe the maximum and minimum distances between
the hydraulic unit and the outdoor unit (gure 18, page 18),
the guarantee of the performances and the system's
service life depend on this.
2.4 Installation of the outdoor unit
2.4.1 Installation precautions
The outdoor unit must only be installed outdoor
(outdoors). If a shelter is required, it must have
broad openings on the 4 walls and observe the
installation clearances (gure 11).
• Choose a site that is preferably sunny and sheltered
from strong cold predominant winds (mistral,
tramontana, etc…).
• The unit must be easily accessible for future installation
and maintenance work (gure 11).
• Ensure that it is possible to make the connections to
the hydraulic unit easily.
• The outdoor unit is able to withstand bad weather but
avoid installing in a position where it is likely to be
exposed to signicant dirt or owing water (under a
defective gutter for example).
• Water may drain away from the outdoor unit when it
is operating. Do not install the appliance on a paved
terrace; choose a well-drained place (e.g. 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. A drainage pipe can also be connected to the
outdoor unit (gure 12).

• Nothing should obstruct the air circulation through the
evaporator and from the fan (gure 11).
• Keep the outdoor unit away from heat sources and
inammable products.
• Make sure the appliance not disturb the surrounding
area or users (noise level, draught generated, low
temperature of the air being blown out, with the risk of
freezing plants in its path).
• The surface on which the appliance is installed must:
- be permeable (soil, gravel, etc),
- support its weight easily,
- provide a solid xing and
- not transmit any vibration to the dwelling.
(Anti-vibratory blocks are available as an option).
• The wall bracket can not be used in conditions likely to
transmit vibrations, ground position is preferred.
2.4.2 Outdoor unit positioning
The outdoor unit must be raised at least 50 mm above
ground level. In areas prone to snow, this height should
be increased but should not exceed 1,5 m (gure 12).
- Fasten the outdoor unit by means of screws and
rubber tightening or toothed lock washers to avoid
their coming loose.
" Warning
In the area with heavy snowfall, if the intake and outlet
of outdoor unit is blocked with snow, it might become
difcult to get warm and it is likely to cause of the
breakdown.
Please construct a canopy and a pedestral or place the
unit on high stand (local congured).
- Set the unit on a strong stand, such as one made of
concrete blocks to minimize shock and vibration.
- Do not set the unit directly on the ground because it will
cause trouble.
* In regions subject to frequent snow,
(H) must be greater than the average snow layer
2.4.3 Condensate drain hose
(see gure 12).
If the use of a discharge pipe is imperative:
- Use the elbow provided (C) to connect a 16mm-
diameter hose for draining away the condensate.
- Use the stopper or stoppers provided (B) to block the
opening of the condensate tank.
Allow for the condensate to ow away under the force of
gravity (waste water, rain water, gravel bed).
" If the installation is made in an area where
the temperature can be lower than 0°C for
a long period, provide the drain pipe with a
trace resistance to avoid it icing up. The trace
resistance must heat not only the pipe but
also the bottom of the appliance's condensate
collection tank.

2.5.1 Installation precautions
1800 mm
300 mm
125 mm
• The room in which the appliance operates must
comply with the prevailing regulations.
• To facilitate maintenance and to allow access to the
various components, we recommend that you provide
sufcient space all around the hydraulic unit (gure 13).
• Be careful not to bring inammable gas near to the
heat pump during its installation, in particular when
it requires brazing. The appliances are not reproof
and should therefore not be installed in a potentially
explosive atmosphere.
- To avoid condensation inside the condenser, remove
the refrigerant circuit caps only when building the
refrigerant connections.
- If the refrigerant connection only occurs at the end of
the installation, be sure that the refrigerant circuit caps*
remain in place and tight throughout the installation
duration.
* (hydraulic unit side and outdoor unit side)
- After every intervention on the refrigeration circuit and
before nal connection, take care to replace the plugs

2.6 Refrigeration connections
" This appliance uses refrigerant R410A.
Comply with the legislation for handling refrigerants.
2.6.1 Rules and precautions
• After every intervention on the refrigeration circuit and
before nal connection, take care to replace the plugs in
order to avoid any pollution from the refrigeration circuit.
• Minimum necessary tools
- Set of manometers (Manifold) with hoses exclusively
reserved for HFCs (Hydrouorocarbons).
- Vacuum gauge whith isolation valves.
- Vacuum pump specially for HFCs (use of a traditional
vacuum pump is authorized if, and only if, it is tted
with a non-return valve on the suction side).
- Flaring tool.
- Pipe-cutter.
- Deburring tool.
- Wrenches.
- Refrigerant gas leak detector certied (sensitivity 5g/year).
" Provision on using tools that have been in
contact with HCFCs (R22 for example) or CFCs.
" The manufacturer declines any liability with
regard to the guarantee if the above instructions
are not observed.
• Flared connections
" Lubrication with mineral oil (for R12, R22)
is forbidden.
- Only lubricate with polyolester refrigeration oil (POE).
If POE is not available, t without lubrication.
• Brazing on the refrigeration circuit (if necessary)
- Silver brazing (40% minimum recommended).
- Brazing only under dry nitrogen internal ux.
• To eliminate any lings in the pipes, use dry nitrogen
to avoid introducing any humidity that may adversely
affect the appliances operation. In general, take every
precaution to avoid humidity penetrating into the
appliance.
• Proceed to insulate the "Gas" and "Liquid" pipes to
avoid any condensation. Use pipe insulators resistant
to temperatures over 90°C. In addition if the humidity
level in areas where the refrigeration pipes are
installed is expected to exceed 70%, protect the pipes
with pipe insulators. Use an insulating material thicker
than 15mm if the humidity level is 70~80%, and an
insulating material thicker than 20mm if the humidity
exceeds 80%. If the recommended thicknesses are
not observed under the conditions described above,
condensation will form on the surface of the insulation
material. Lastly, take care to use pipe insulators
whose thermal conductivity is 0.045 W/mK or less
when the temperature is 20°C. The insulation must be
impermeable to resist the passage of steam during the
defrosting cycles (breglass wool is prohibited).
Coat the ared surface
with POE refrigeration oil.
Do not use mineral oil.
- 16 -
Installation and operating manual "1572 - EN"
Heat pump air/water split 2 services alféa excellia duo
2.6.2 Refrigeration connections
The outdoor unit must be connected to the hydraulic unit
only with copper pipes and connections (refrigeration
quality), insulated separately.
Comply with the pipe diameters and the permitted pipe
lengths (gure 18).
The minimum length of the refrigeration connections
is 5 m for correct operation.
The appliance will be excluded from guarantee if it is
used with refrigeration connections less than 5 m long.
If the refrigeration connections are exposed to
weathering or UV- and the insulation is not strong, it is
necessary to provide protection.
Manipulate the pipes and take them through walls with
protective plugs in place.
2.6.3 Creating the arings
- Cut the pipe to an appropriate length with a pipe-cutter
without deforming it.
- Carefully deburr it, holding the pipe towards the bottom
to avoid introducing lings into the pipe.
- Remove the ared connection nut situated on the
valve to be connected and slip the pipe into the nut.
- Proceed to are, letting the pipe overow the aring
tool.
- After aring, check the condition of the working
radius (L). This must not show any scratch or trace of
any fracturing. Also check the dimension (B).
2.6.4 Shaping the refrigeration pipes
The refrigeration pipes must be shaped only on a
bending machine or with a bending spring in order to
avoid any risk of crushing or breaking them.
" Warning !
• Remove the insulation material locally to bend the
pipes.
• Do not bend the copper to any angle over 90°.
• Never bend pipes more than 3 times in the same
position otherwise traces of fracturing may appear
(from strain-hardening the metal).
2.6.5 Connecting the ared connections
" Connections must be made the day of the lling
the installation with gas (see para. "Filling the
installation with gas", page 19).
" Take particular care positioning the tube opposite
its connector so as not to risk damaging the
threads. A carefully aligned connector can be tted
easily by hand without much force being required.
" The refrigeration circuit is very sensitive to dust
and humidity: check that the area around the
connection is clean and dry before removing the
plugs protecting the refrigeration connectors.
- Remove the plugs from the pipes and the refrigeration
connections.
- Present the pipe to the ared connector and screw the
nut by hand while holding the connector with a wrench
until contact.

per additional meter
Length of
the connections
Additional chargenone250 g
15 m20 m max.
The charge in the outdoor units corresponds to the
maximum distances between the outdoor unit and the
hydraulic unit dened in page 18. If the distances
are greater, an additional charge of R410A is required.
The additional charge depends on the distance
between the outdoor unit and the hydraulic unit for
each type of appliance. The additional charge of R410A
must necessarily be made by an approved refrigeration
engineer.
• Example of additional charge :
An outdoor unit 17 m away from the hydraulic unit will
require an additional charge of :
Additional charge = (17 - 15) x 50 = 100 g.
The charge must be introduced after creating the
vacuum and before the hydraulic unit is lled with gas,
as follows :
- Disconnect the vacuum pump (yellow hose) and
connect a bottle of R410A instead in the liquid
extraction position.
- Open the bottle’s valve.
- Bleed the yellow hose by loosening it slightly on the
Manifold side.
- Place the bottle on scales with a minimum accuracy
of 10 g. Note the weight.
- Carefully open the blue valve slightly and check the
value shown on the scales.
- As soon as the value displayed has dropped by the
value for the calculated additional charge, close the
bottle and disconnect it.
- Then rapidly disconnect the hose connected to the
appliance.
- Proceed to ll the hydraulic unit with gas.
" Warning
• Only use R410A !

2.8 Hydraulic connecting
2.8.1 General
The connection must comply with good trade practice
according to local building regulations.
The heating circulating pump is built into the hydraulic unit.
Connect the central heating pipes to the appliance,
complying with the direction of circulation.
The pipe between the heat pump and the heat collector
must be at least one inch in diameter (26x34 mm).
Calculate the diameter of the pipes according to the
ow rates and the lengths of the hydraulic systems.
Tightening torque: 15 to 35 Nm.
Use union connectors to facilitate removing the hydraulic
unit.
Preferentially use connection hoses to avoid transmitting
noise and vibrations to the building.
Connect the drains from the drain valve and the safety
valve to the main sewer system.
Verify the correct functioning of the expansion system.
Control the vessel pressure (precharge 1 bar) and the
safety valve setting.
Reminder: Seal everything when tting in accordance
with prevailing trade practice for plumbing work:
- Use suitable seals (bre seals, o-rings).
- Use Teon tape or hemp.
- Use sealing paste (synthetic depending on the case).
The use of glycol is not necessary. If you are using a
glycol/water mix, provide for an annual check on the
quantity of glycol. Use monopropylene glycol only.
Never use monoethylene glycol.
" In certain installations, the presence of different
metals can cause corrosion problems; the
formation of metal particles and sludge in the
hydraulic circuit is then seen.
" In this case, it is advisable to use a corrosion
inhibitor in the proportions indicated by its
manufacturer.

2.12 Outdoor sensor
The outdoor sensor is required for the heat pump to
operate correctly.
Consult the tting instructions on the packaging.
Place the sensor on the coldest part, generally the
northern or north-eastern side.
In any case, it must not be exposed to the morning sun.
It must be installed so as to be easily accessible but at
least 2,5 m from the oor.
It is essential that it avoid any sources of heat such as
ues, the upper parts of doors and windows, proximity
to extraction vents, the underneath of balconies and
under-eave areas, which would isolate the sensor from
variations in the outdoor air temperature.
- Connect the outdoor sensor to the connector X84
(terminals M and B9) on the heat pump control board.
2.13 Room thermostat
and/or room control unit
The room thermostat (room control unit) is optional.
Consult the tting instructions on the packaging.
The sensor must be installed in the living room area on
a very uncluttered wall. It must be installed so as to be
easily accessible.
Avoid direct sources of heat (chimney/ue, television,
cooking hobs), draughty areas (ventilation, door, etc.).
Air leaks in the seals in the constructions are often
translated into cold air blowing through the electrical
conduits. Lag the electrical conduits if there is a cold
draught on the back of the IR sensor.
2.13.3 Fan convectors or dynamic radiators area
If the installation is equipped with fan convector or
dynamic radiators, Do not use a room sensor in the
area.
2.14 Commissioning
- Close the installation's main circuit breaker.
On rst commissioning (or in winter), in order to
allow the compressor to pre-heat, engage the
installation's main circuit breaker (power supply
to the outdoor unit) some hours before starting
up the tests.
- Engage the start/stop switch.
To ensure that inputs EX1, EX2 and EX3 operate
correctly: Check that the live-neutral polarity of
the electrical supply is correct.
When the power is switched on and every time that the
ON/OFF button is switched off and then switched on
again, the outdoor unit will take approximately 4 minutes
to start up, even if the setting is requesting heating.
The display can show error 370 when the
appliance (re)starts. Do not be concerned,
the communication between the outdoor and
hydraulic unit will re-establish itself in a few
moments.
During the regulator initialisation phase, the display
shows all the symbols and then "Data, update" and then
"State heat pump"
- Make all the specic adjustments to the setting.
(Installation conguration):

connector X60.
- Press OK.
- Hold down the key for 3s and select the level of
access used with the aid of the knob. .
- Conrm with the key OK.
- Parameter the heat pump's setting
(Consult the settings' list page 35).
On commissioning (or the case of error 10), the electrical
back-up heaters are liable to start up even if the outdoor
temperature at the time is above the heaters’ trigger
temperature.
The regulating system uses an average initial outdoor
temperature of 0°C and requires some time to update
this temperature.
To avoid this situation, the sensor must be connected
correctly. Re-initialise parameter 8703 (commissioning
level, consumer diagnostic menu).

(freeze protection).
3.3 Temperature control
The heat pump's operation is subject to the temperature
control.
The set temperature for the water in the heating circuit
is adjusted according to the outdoor temperature.
If there are thermostatic valves on the installation, these
must be fully open or adjusted for higher than the normal
set temperature.
3.3.1 Set to
During installation, the temperature control must be
parametered according to the heat emitters and the
dwelling's insulation.
The temperature control' curves (gure 44) efer to an
ambient setting of 20°C.
The slope of the temperature control (parameter 720)
determines the impact of the variations in the outdoor
temperature on the initial heating temperature variations.
The higher the slope, the more a slight reduction in the
outdoor temperature causes a signicant increase in
the ow water temperature in the heating circuit.
The off-set in the temperature control (parameter 721)
modies the initial temperature of all the curves, without
modication of the slope (gure 45) .
The corrective actions in the case of any inconvenience
are detailed in the table (gure 46).

7 Maintenance of the installation
Ensure that the general electrical power supply has
been cut off before starting any repair work.
7.1 Hydraulic checks
" Warning : If frequent re lls are required
it is essential that you look for any leaks.
If lling and re-pressurization are required,
check what type of uid has been used initially.
Recommended lling pressure: 1 to 2 bar
(Precise lling pressure is determined by the manometric
height of the installation).
Each year,
- Check the expansion vessel pressure (precharge 1 bar)
and the correct functioning of the safety valve.
- Verify the safety unit on the cold water supply inlet.
Make it work as prescribed by the manufacturer.
- Check the shut-off.
- Verify the correct functioning of the distribution valve.
7.2 Maintenance of the DHW tank

Close
Open
43
Maintenance of the tank must be undertaken once a year
(The frequency may vary according to water hardness).
7.2.1 Emptying the hot water tank
- Remove the facade from the hydraulic unit.
- Close the cold water entry into the tank.
- Open a hot water tap and open the water tank emptying
valve (ref. 1).
7.2.2 Descaling
- Empty the water tank.
- Remove the hood of the electrical back-up (ref. 2).
- Disconnect the electrical back-up.
- Unplug the ACI.
- Remove the electrical back-up (ref. 3).
- Remove any limescale deposits that have built up
inside the tank. It is best to let the scale stuck to the
walls of the tank: it forms a protective layer.
- Gently remove any limescale deposit on the glove
nger. Do not use any metal objects or chemical or
abrasive products.
- Replace the joint of the electrical back-up (ref. 4)
each time it is dismantled.
- Replace the electrical back-up and carry out ‘crossed’
locking of the nuts.
- Reconnect the electrical back-up.
- Plug in the ACI.
- Replace the hood of the electrical back-up.

7.3 Checking the outdoor unit
- Dust off the heat exchanger if necessary, being careful
not to damage the ns.
- Straighten the vanes using a comb.
- Check that there is nothing obstructing the passage of air.
- Check the fan.
- Verify that condensate drain is not obstructed.
• Checking the refrigeration circuit :
- When the refrigerant charge is in excess of 2kg
(>10kW models), it is compulsory to have an approved
after sales service check the refrigeration circuit every
year (with a certi cate of capacity for the handling of
refrigerants) (see para. 6.2, page 63).
- Check the lack of leak (connections, valves…).
