Fill the system with water
The system can now be filled with water to around 1 bar pressure.
Ensure that all air is removed from the system by mechanical
flushing. This heat pump has a pump run switch on the small PCB
under the front cover of the heat pump. This allows the circulation
pump to be run manually to help vent the system.
1.2. Heat Pump Controller
The heat pump controller must be installed and can be configured to be used as a room thermostat.
Accessing parameters –
1. For User level Press menu button for 3 seconds
2. For Install parameters hold down the 3 buttons
together for 3 seconds
3. The parameter number (4 digits) will be displayed, and the value of
the parameter. (2 of the 4 parameter digits will be flashing)
4. Change these (flashing) numbers using the up/down buttons, or
5. Change to the other 2 digits using the +/- buttons, or and
change these too if necessary
6. Press the Set button
