About YourHeat Pump (3800 Series only)

Heat l)mnps can save money by removing heat
fl'om the outside ai_e\'en when the outside

temperature is below fl'eezing--and releasing
that heat indom_,

To get the best perlommnce fl'om ):our heat
pmnp, don't change the room them_ostat ve_T

often. Raising the heat setting 2-3 degrees will
cause the Zoneline to use its electric heating

elements in order to reach the new temperatm'e
setting quickly.

There is a three mimlte minimum compressor
run time at any setting to prevent short cycling.

The indoor tim motor starts beli)re the

COllll)I'essoI" and stops aJ[teI" the cOI/ll)I'essoI"

cycles off'.

The electric heating elements use much
more electricit_ than heat pmnps and cost

II/OI'e to operate.

upper lett side of the Zoneline unit, behind

the room cabinet.

_,_q_en set at the closed position, onE' the air
inside the room is circulated and filtered.

X,_]_en set at the open position, some outdoor
air will be drawn into the room. This will

reduce the heating or cooling efficiency.

Energy Tip: Kee I) the vent control at the closed
position. The room air will be filtered and

circulated.
