1.4Guarantee registration

ThankyouforinstallinganewGlow-wormapplianceinyourhome. Glow-worm appliances are manufactured to the very

highest standard so we are pleased to offer our customers a Comprehensive Guarantee.

This product is guaranteed for 24 months from the date of installation or 30 months from the date of manufacture, whichever is the shorter, for parts and labour.

The secondyear of guarantee, from the beginning of the 13th month onwards after installation or manufacture, is conditional upon the heat pump having been serviced by a competent person approved at the time by the Health and Safety Executive, in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations. We strongly recommend regular servicing ofyour appliance, but where the condition is not met, any chargeable spare parts or components issued within the applicable guarantee period still benefit from a 12 month warranty from the date of issue by the manufacturer.

We recommendyou complete and return as soon as possible your guarantee registration card (delivered with the hydraulic module). Ifyour guarantee registration card is missing you can obtain a copy or recordyour registration by telephoning the Glow-worm Customer Service number 01773 828100.

2Appliance description

2.1Safety devices

-- This appliance is designed for use in heating with an external temperature of between -20°Cand 30°C. Outside this range, the heat pump stops.

-- A set of security devices based on measuring the temperature within the circuits and the current in the compressor protects it against excess pressure in the refrigerating fluid.

-- A flow detector protects the appliance as a whole.

-- To prevent stagnation of the refrigerant fluid when the compressor is stopped, a safety device is activated when the outside temperature lowers. The compressor is then heated by a low electrical current through the motor windings,

-- A temperature sensor on exit from the compressor limits the functioning of the heat pump when the temperature measured by this sensor is greater than 100°C. From 117°C, the heat pump stops.

-- A temperature sensor on the tubular heat exchanger and a tachometer on the fan checks that the fan is working.

-- A water flow sensor ensures the security of the water circulation. If the flow is too low (< 420 l/h), the appliance stops and re-starts when the flow comes within the normal functioning range (>500l/h).

2.3.2Local regulations

Benchmarkplaces responsibilities on both manufacturers and installers. The purpose is to ensure that customers are provided with the correct equipment for their needs, that it is installed, commissioned and serviced in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions by a competent person approved at

the time by the Health and Safety Executive and that it meets the requirements of the appropriate Building Regulations.

The BenchmarkChecklist can be used to demonstrate compliance with Building Regulations and should be provided to the customer for future reference.

Installers are required to carry out installation, commissioning and servicing workin accordance with the BenchmarkCode of Practice which is available from the Heating and Hotwater Industry Council who manage and promote the Scheme.

• Visit www.centralheating.co.ukfor more information.

2.4Concept of operation

A heat pump (HP) is a thermodynamic machine which transfers heat from one location to another. To do so, it employs the characteristics of a refrigerant fluid.

The system is composed of the following circuits:

-- The refrigeration circuit which transfers heat to the water

circuit following the evaporation, compression, condensation

and expansion of the fluid.

-- The heating circuit.

R410A Refrigerant

b Important: any action carried out on the refrigerant

circuit must be performed by qualified personnel.

-- Use only R410A refrigerant.

The tools used for charging, for measuring pressure, for creating a vacuum and for the recovery of the fluid must be compatible with and employed solely for R410A.

Welding is to be carried out with nitrogen and the circuit’s airtightness is to be tested under pressure, with nitrogen.

Refilling must be effected during the liquid phase.

In case of leakage, do not add fluid: drain the remaining fluid from the circuit and eliminate, in accordance with the applicable regulations.

Evacuating refrigerant into the atmosphere is b prohibited. The refrigerant must be properly recovered in a containersuitable forrecycling.

Create a vacuum in the circuit with a maximum pressure of 30 mbar (static pressure).

Bleed the circuit before any welding work.

Do not smoke orlight flames during the emptying a and filling of the circuit. The gases emitted during the
