General Information
Inspection
Upon receipt of the equipment, carefully check the shipment
against the bill of lading. Make sure all units have been received.
Inspect the packaging of each unit, and inspect each unit for
damage. Insure that the carrier makes proper notation of any
shortages or damage on all copies of the freight bill and completes
a common carrier inspection report. Concealed damage not
discovered during unloading must be reported to the carrier within
15 days of receipt of shipment. If not filed within 15 days, the
freight company can deny the claim without recourse. Note: It is the
responsibility of the purchaser to file all necessary claims with the
carrier. Notify your equipment supplier of all damage within fi fteen
(15) days of shipment.
Storage
Equipment should be stored in its original packaging in a clean,
dry area. Store units in an upright position at all times. Stack units
a maximum of 3 units high.
Unit Protection
Cover units on the job site with either the original packaging or
an equivalent protective covering. Cap the open ends of pipes
stored on the job site. In areas where painting, plastering, and/
or spraying has not been completed, all due precautions must be
taken to avoid physical damage to the units and contamination
by foreign material. Physical damage and contamination may
prevent proper start-up and may result in costly equipment cleanup.
7. Locate and verify any hot water generator (HWG), hanger,
or other accessory kit located in the compressor section or
blower section.
CAUTION!
CAUTION! DO NOT store or install units in corrosive
environments or in locations subject to temperature or
humidity extremes (e.g., attics, garages, rooftops, etc.).
Corrosive conditions and high temperature or humidity can
signifi cantly reduce performance, reliability, and service
life. Always move and store units in an upright position.
Tilting units on their sides may cause equipment damage.
CAUTION!
CAUTION! CUT HAZARD - Failure to follow this caution
may result in personal injury. Sheet metal parts may have
sharp edges or burrs. Use care and wear appropriate
protective clothing, safety glasses and gloves when
handling parts and servicing heat pumps.
Examine all pipes, fittings, and valves before installing any of the
system components. Remove any dirt or debris found in or on
these components.
Pre-Installation
Installation, Operation, and Maintenance instructions are
provided with each unit. Horizontal equipment is designed for
installation above false ceiling or in a ceiling plenum. Other unit
confi gurations are typically installed in a mechanical room. The
installation site chosen should include adequate service clearance
around the unit. Before unit start-up, read all manuals and
become familiar with the unit and its operation. Thoroughly check
the system before operation.
Prepare units for installation as follows:
1. Compare the electrical data on the unit nameplate with
ordering and shipping information to verify that the correct unit
has been shipped.
2. Keep the cabinet covered with the original packaging until
installation is complete and all plastering, painting, etc. is
fi nished.
3. Verify refrigerant tubing is free of kinks or dents and that it
does not touch other unit components.
4. Inspect all electrical connections. Connections must be clean
and tight at the terminals.
5. Remove any blower support packaging (water-to-air units
only).
6. Loosen compressor bolts on units equipped with compressor
grommet vibration isolation until the compressor rides freely
on the grommets.

General Information
Horizontal Unit Location
Units are not designed for outdoor installation. Locate the unit in
an INDOOR area that allows enough space for service personnel
to perform typical maintenance or repairs without removing unit
from the ceiling. Horizontal units are typically installed above a
false ceiling or in a ceiling plenum. Never install units in areas
subject to freezing or where humidity levels could cause cabinet
condensation (such as unconditioned spaces subject to 100%
outside air). Consideration should be given to access for easy
removal of the fi lter and access panels. Provide suffi cient room to
make water, electrical, and duct connection(s).
If the unit is located in a confi ned space, such as a closet,
provisions must be made for return air to freely enter the space
by means of a louvered door, etc. Any access panel screws that
would be diffi cult to remove after the unit is installed should
be removed prior to setting the unit. Refer to Figure 3 for an
illustration of a typical installation. Refer to unit specifi cations
catalog for dimensional data.
Conform to the following guidelines when selecting
unit location:
1.
Provide a hinged access door in concealed-spline or plaster
ceilings. Provide removable ceiling tiles in T-bar or lay-in
ceilings. Refer to horizontal unit dimensions for specifi c
series and model in unit specifi cations catalog. Size the
access opening to accommodate the service technician
during the removal or replacement of the compressor and
the removal or installation of the unit itself.
2.
Provide access to hanger brackets, water valves and fi ttings.
Provide screwdriver clearance to access panels, discharge
collars and all electrical connections.
3. DO NOT obstruct the space beneath the unit with piping,
electrical cables and other items that prohibit future removal
of components or the unit itself.
4. Use a manual portable jack/lift to lift and support the weight
of the unit during installation and servicing.
Mounting Horizontal Units
Horizontal units have hanger kits pre-installed from the factory
as shown in Figure 1. Figure 3 shows a typical horizontal unit
installation.
Horizontal heat pumps are typically suspended above a ceiling or
within a soffi t using fi eld supplied, threaded rods sized to support
the weight of the unit.
Use four (4) fi eld supplied threaded rods and factory provided
vibration isolators to suspend the unit. Hang the unit clear of the
fl oor slab above and support the unit by the mounting bracket
assemblies only. DO NOT attach the unit fl ush with the fl oor slab
above.
Pitch the unit toward the drain as shown in Figure 2 to improve
the condensate drainage. On small units (less than 8.8kW) ensure
that unit pitch does not cause condensate leaks inside the
cabinet.

Field Conversion of Air Discharge
Overview -
Horizontal units can be fi eld converted between side
(straight) and back (end) discharge using the instructions below.
Note: It is not possible to fi eld convert return air between left or
right return models due to the necessity of refrigeration copper
piping changes.
Preparation - It is best to fi eld convert the unit on the ground
before hanging. If the unit is already hung it should be taken down
for the fi eld conversion.
Side to Back Discharge Conversion
1.
Place unit in well lit area. Remove the screws as shown in
Figure 4 to free top panel and discharge panel.
2. Lift out the access panel and set aside. Lift and rotate the
discharge panel to the other position as shown, being careful
with the blower wiring.
3.
Check blower wire routing and connections for tension or
contact with sheet metal edges. Reroute if necessary .
4. Check refrigerant tubing for contact with
other components.
5. Reinstall top panel and screws noting that the location for
some screws will have changed.
6. Manually spin the fan wheel to ensure that the wheel is not
rubbing or obstructed.
7. Replace access panels.

Left vs. Right Return - It is not possible to fi eld convert return air
between left or right return models due to the necessity of refrigeration copper piping changes. However, the conversion process of
side to back or back to side discharge for either right or left return
confi guration is the same. In some cases, it may be possible to
rotate the entire unit 180 degrees if the return air connection needs
to be on the opposite side. Note that rotating the unit will move the
piping to the other end of the unit.

Horizontal Installation
ondensate Pipin
Condensate Piping – Horizontal Units
Pitch the unit toward the drain as shown in Figure 2 to improve
the condensate drainage. On small units (less than 2.5 tons/8.8
kW), insure that unit pitch does not cause condensate leaks
inside the cabinet.
Install condensate trap at each unit with the top of the trap
positioned below the unit condensate drain connection as shown
in Figure 6. Design the depth of the trap (water-seal) based
upon the amount of ESP capability of the blower (where 2 inches
[51mm] of ESP capability requires 2 inches [51mm] of trap depth).
As a general rule, 1-1/2 inch [38mm] trap depth is the minimum.
Each unit must be installed with its own individual trap and
connection to the condensate line (main) or riser. Provide a
means to fl ush or blow out the condensate line. DO NOT install
units with a common trap and/or vent.
Always vent the condensate line when dirt or air can collect in
the line or a long horizontal drain line is required. Also vent when
large units are working against higher external static pressure
than other units connected to the same condensate main since
this may cause poor drainage for all units on the line. WHEN A
VENT IS INSTALLED IN THE DRAIN LINE, IT MUST BE LOCATED
AFTER THE TRAP IN THE DIRECTION OF THE CONDENSATE
FLOW.

CAUTION!
CAUTION! Ensure condensate line is pitched toward drain
1/8 inch per ft [11mm per m] of run.
DUCT SYSTEM INSTALLATION
Duct System Installation
The duct system should be sized to handle the design airfl ow
quietly. Refer to Figure 3 for horizontal duct system details or
fi gure 8 for vertical duct system details. A fl exible connector is
recommended for both discharge and return air duct connections
on metal duct systems to eliminate the transfer of vibration to
the duct system. To maximize sound attenuation of the unit
blower, the supply and return plenums should include internal
fi berglass duct liner or be constructed from ductboard for the
fi rst few feet. Application of the unit to uninsulated ductwork
in an unconditioned space is not recommended, as the unit’s
performance will be adversely affected.
At least one 90° elbow should be included in the supply duct to
reduce air noise. If air noise or excessive air fl ow is a problem,
the blower speed can be changed. For airfl ow charts, consult
specifi cations catalog for the series and model of the specifi c
unit.
If the unit is connected to existing ductwork, a previous check
should have been made to insure that the ductwork has the
capacity to handle the airfl ow required for the unit. If ducting is
too small, as in the replacement of a heating only system, larger
ductwork should be installed. All existing ductwork should be
checked for leaks and repaired as necessary.

Vertical Installation
Vertical Unit Location
Units are not designed for outdoor installation. Locate the unit in
an INDOOR area that allows enough space for service personnel
to perform typical maintenance or repairs without removing unit
from the mechanical room/closet. Vertical units are typically
installed in a mechanical room or closet. Never install units in
areas subject to freezing or where humidity levels could cause
cabinet condensation (such as unconditioned spaces subject to
100% outside air). Consideration should be given to access for
easy removal of the fi lter and access panels. Provide suffi cient
room to make water, electrical, and duct connection(s).
If the unit is located in a confi ned space, such as a closet,
provisions must be made for return air to freely enter the space
by means of a louvered door, etc. Any access panel screws that
would be diffi cult to remove after the unit is installed should
be removed prior to setting the unit. Refer to Figures 7 and 8
for typical installation illustrations. Refer to unit specifi cations
catalog for dimensional data.
1.
Install the unit on a piece of rubber, neoprene or other
mounting pad material for sound isolation. The pad should
be at least 3/8” [10mm] to 1/2” [13mm] in thickness. Extend
the pad beyond all four edges of the unit.
2. Provide adequate clearance for fi lter replacement and drain
pan cleaning. Do not block fi lter access with piping, conduit
or other materials. Refer to unit specifi cations for dimensional
data.
3. Provide access for fan and fan motor maintenance and for
servicing the compressor and coils without removing the unit.
4. Provide an unobstructed path to the unit within the closet
or mechanical room. Space should be suffi cient to allow
removal of the unit, if necessary.
5. Provide access to water valves and fi ttings and screwdriver
access to the unit side panels, discharge collar and all
electrical connections.
Downfl ow units may be installed directly on the fl oor. The
optional internal electric heat is rated for zero clearance to
combustible materials.
The installation of water source heat pump units and all
associated components, parts and accessories which make
up the installation shall be in accordance with the regulations
of ALL authorities having jurisdiction and MUST conform to
all applicable codes. It is the responsibility of the installing
contractor to determine and comply with ALL applicable codes
and regulations.

Vertical Installation
Sound Attenuation for Vertical Units - Sound attenuation is
achieved by enclosing the unit within a small mechanical room
or a closet. Additional measures for sound control include the
following:
1. Mount the unit so that the return air inlet is 90° to the
return air grille. Refer to Figure 9. Install a sound baffl e as
illustrated to reduce line-of sight sound transmitted through
return air grilles.
2.
Mount the unit on an Unit Isolation Pad to minimize vibration
transmission to the building structure. For more information on
Unit Isolation Pads, contact your distributor.

Condensate Piping for Vertical Units - Vertical units utilize a
condensate hose inside the cabinet as a trapping loop; therefore
an external trap is not necessary . Figure 10a shows typical
condensate connections. Figure 10b illustrates the internal trap
for a typical vertical heat pump. Each unit must be installed with
its own individual vent (where necessary) and a means to fl ush
or blow out the condensate drain line. Do not install units with a
common trap and/or vent.

Water Connections-Residential (Distributor) Models
Residential models utilize swivel piping fi ttings for water
connections that are rated for 450 psi (3101 kPa) operating
pressure. The connections have a rubber gasket seal similar to a
garden hose gasket, which when mated to the fl ush end of most
1” threaded male pipe fi ttings provides a leak-free seal without
the need for thread sealing tape or joint compound. Check for
burrs and ensure that the rubber seal is in the swivel connector
prior to attempting any connection (rubber seals are shipped
attached to the swivel connector). DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN or
leaks may occur.

Pre-Installation
Prior to installation, locate and mark all existing underground
utilities, piping, etc. Install loops for new construction before
sidewalks, patios, driveways, and other construction has begun.
During construction, accurately mark all ground loop piping on
the plot plan as an aid in avoiding potential future damage to the
installation.
CAUTION!
CAUTION! The following instructions represent industry
accepted installation practices for closed loop earth coupled
heat pump systems. Instructions are provided to assist the
contractor in installing trouble free ground loops. These
instructions are recommendations only. State/provincial
and local codes MUST be followed and installation MUST
conform to ALL applicable codes. It is the responsibility of
the installing contractor to determine and comply with ALL
applicable codes and regulations.
Piping Installation
The typical closed loop ground source system is shown in Figure
12. All earth loop piping materials should be limited to polyethylene
fusion only for in-ground sections of the loop. Galvanized or steel
fi ttings should not be used at any time due to their tendency to
corrode. All plastic to metal threaded fi ttings should be avoided due
to their potential to leak in earth coupled applications. A fl anged
fi tting should be substituted. P/T plugs should be used so that
fl ow can be measured using the pressure drop of the unit heat
exchanger.
Earth loop temperatures can range between 25 and 110°F [-4
to 43°C]. Flow rates between 2.25 and 3 gpm per ton [2.41 to
3.23 l/m per kW] of cooling capacity is recommended in these
applications.
Test individual horizontal loop circuits before backfi lling. Test
vertical U-bends and pond loop assemblies prior to installation.
Pressures of at least 100 psi [689 kPa] should be used when
testing. Do not exceed the pipe pressure rating. Test entire
system when all loops are assembled.
Flushing the Earth Loop
Once piping is completed between the unit, Flow Controller and
the ground loop (Figure 12), the loop is ready for fi nal purging
and charging. A fl ush cart with at least a 1.5 hp [1.1 kW] pump is
required to achieve enough fl uid velocity in the loop piping system
to purge air and dirt particles. An antifreeze solution is used in
11
Installation, Operation & Maintenance HTV/HTD/HTH SERIESHeat Controller, Inc.
Ground-Loop Heat Pump Applications
most areas to prevent freezing. All air and debris must be removed
from the earth loop piping before operation. Flush the loop with a
high volume of water at a minimum velocity of 2 fps (0.6 m/s) in all
piping. The steps below must be followed for proper fl ushing.
1. Fill loop with water from a garden hose through the fl ush cart
before using the fl ush cart pump to insure an even fi ll.
2. Once full, the fl ushing process can begin. Do not allow the
water level in the fl ush cart tank to drop below the pump inlet
line to avoid air being pumped back out to the earth loop.
3. Try to maintain a fl uid level in the tank above the return tee
so that air cannot be continuously mixed back into the fl uid.
Surges of 50 psi (345 kPa) can be used to help purge air
pockets by simply shutting off the return valve going into the
fl ush cart reservoir. This “dead heads” the pump to 50 psi (345
kPa). To purge, dead head the pump until maximum pumping
pressure is reached. Open the return valve and a pressure
surge will be sent through the loop to help purge air pockets
from the piping system.
4. Notice the drop in fl uid level in the fl ush cart tank when the
return valve is shut off. If air is adequately purged from the
system, the level will drop only 1-2 inches (2.5 - 5 cm) in a
10” (25 cm) diameter PVC fl ush tank (about a half gallon [2.3
liters]), since liquids are incompressible. If the level drops
more than this, fl ushing should continue since air is still
being compressed in the loop fl uid. Perform the “dead head”
procedure a number of times. Note: This fl uid level drop is
your only indication of air in the loop.
Antifreeze may be added before, during or after the fl ushing
procedure. However, depending upon which time is chosen,
antifreeze could be wasted when emptying the fl ush cart tank.
See antifreeze section for more details.
Loop static pressure will fl uctuate with the seasons. Pressures
will be higher in the winter months than during the cooling
season. This fl uctuation is normal and should be considered
when charging the system initially. Run the unit in either heating
or cooling for a number of minutes to condition the loop to a
homogenous temperature. This is a good time for tool cleanup,
piping insulation, etc. Then, perform fi nal fl ush and pressurize
the loop to a static pressure of 50-75 psi [345-517 kPa] (winter)
or 35-40 psi [241-276 kPa] (summer). After pressurization, be
sure to loosen the plug at the end of the Grundfos loop pump
motor(s) to allow trapped air to be discharged and to insure the
motor housing has been fl ooded. This is not required for Taco
circulators. Insure that the Flow Controller provides adequate
fl ow through the unit by checking pressure drop across the heat
exchanger and compare to the pressure drop tables at the back
of the manual.
Low temperature protection should be maintained to 15°F [9°C]
below the lowest expected entering loop temperature. For
example, if 30°F [-1°C] is the minimum expected entering loop
temperature, the leaving loop temperature would be 25 to 22°F
[-4 to -6°C] and low temperature protection should be at 15°F
[-10°C]. Calculation is as follows:
30°F - 15°F = 15°F [-1°C - 9°C = -10°C].
All alcohols should be premixed and pumped from a reservoir
outside of the building when possible or introduced under the
water level to prevent fumes. Calculate the total volume of
fl uid in the piping system. Then use the percentage by volume
shown in Table 2 for the amount of antifreeze needed. Antifreeze
concentration should be checked from a well mixed sample
using a hydrometer to measure specifi c gravity.
Low Water Temperature Cutout Setting - CXM Control
When antifreeze is selected, the FP1 jumper (JW3) should be
clipped to select the low temperature (antifreeze 10°F [-12.2°C])
set point and avoid nuisance faults (see “Low Water Temperature
Cutout Selection” in this manual). Note: Low water temperature
operation requires extended range equipment.

Antifreeze
In areas where minimum entering loop temperatures drop below

commonly used as antifreeze; however your local sales manager
should be consulted for the antifreeze best suited to your area.

Open Loop - Ground Water Systems
Typical open loop piping is shown in Figure 13. Shut off valves
should be included for ease of servicing. Boiler drains or other
valves should be “tee’d” into the lines to allow acid fl ushing of the
heat exchanger. Shut off valves should be positioned to allow fl ow
through the coax via the boiler drains without allowing fl ow into the
piping system. P/T plugs should be used so that pressure drop
and temperature can be measured. Piping materials should be
limited to copper or PVC SCH80. Note: Due to the pressure and
temperature extremes, PVC SCH40 is not recommended.
Water quantity should be plentiful and of good quality. Consult
table 3 for water quality guidelines. The unit can be ordered with
either a copper or cupro-nickel water heat exchanger. Consult
table 3 for recommendations. Copper is recommended for
closed loop systems and open loop ground water systems that
are not high in mineral content or corrosiveness. In conditions
anticipating heavy scale formation or in brackish water, a cupronickel heat exchanger is recommended. In ground water situations
where scaling could be heavy or where biological growth such
as iron bacteria will be present, an open loop system is not
recommended. Heat exchanger coils may over time lose heat
exchange capabilities due to build up of mineral deposits. Heat
exchangers must only be serviced by a qualifi ed technician, as
acid and special pumping equipment is required. Desuperheater
coils can likewise become scaled and possibly plugged. In areas
with extremely hard water, the owner should be informed that the
heat exchanger may require occasional acid fl ushing. In some
cases, the desuperheater option should not be recommended due
to hard water conditions and additional maintenance required.
Water Quality Standards
Table 3 should be consulted for water quality requirements.
Scaling potential should be assessed using the pH/Calcium
hardness method. If the pH <7.5 and the Calcium hardness is
less than 100 ppm, scaling potential is low. If this method yields
numbers out of range of those listed, the Ryznar Stability and
Langelier Saturation indecies should be calculated. Use the
appropriate scaling surface temperature for the application,
150°F [66°C] for direct use (well water/open loop) and DHW
(desuperheater); 90°F [32°F] for indirect use. A monitoring plan
should be implemented in these probable scaling situations. Other
water quality issues such as iron fouling, corrosion prevention and
erosion and clogging should be referenced in Table 3.

Use a closed, bladder-type pressure tank to minimize mineral
formation due to air exposure. The pressure tank should be
sized to provide at least one minute continuous run time of the
pump using its drawdown capacity rating to prevent pump short
cycling. Discharge water from the unit is not contaminated in any
manner and can be disposed of in various ways, depending on
local building codes (e.g. recharge well, storm sewer, drain fi eld,
adjacent stream or pond, etc.). Most local codes forbid the use
of sanitary sewer for disposal. Consult your local building and
zoning department to assure compliance in your area.
The pump should be sized to handle the home’s domestic water
load (typically 5-9 gpm [23-41 l/m]) plus the fl ow rate required
for the heat pump. Pump sizing and expansion tank must be
chosen as complimentary items. For example, an expansion
tank that is too small can causing premature pump failure due
to short cycling. Variable speed pumping applications should be
considered for the inherent energy savings and smaller pressure
tank requirements.
Water Control Valve
Note the placement of the water control valve in fi gure 13. Always
maintain water pressure in the heat exchanger by placing the
water control valve(s) on the discharge line to prevent mineral
precipitation during the off-cycle. Pilot operated slow closing
valves are recommended to reduce water hammer. If water
hammer persists, a mini-expansion tank can be mounted on the
piping to help absorb the excess hammer shock. Insure that the
total ‘VA’ draw of the valve can be supplied by the unit transformer.
For instance, a slow closing valve can draw up to 35VA. This
can overload smaller 40 or 50 VA transformers depending on the
other controls in the circuit. A typical pilot operated solenoid valve
draws approximately 15VA (see Figure 22). Note the special wiring
diagrams for slow closing valves (Figures 23 & 24).
Flow Regulation
Flow regulation can be accomplished by two methods. One method
of fl ow regulation involves simply adjusting the ball valve or water
control valve on the discharge line. Measure the pressure drop
through the unit heat exchanger, and determine fl ow rate from
tables 9a through 9c. Since the pressure is constantly varying, two
pressure gauges may be needed. Adjust the valve until the desired
fl ow of 1.5 to 2 gpm per ton [2.0 to 2.6 l/m per kW] is achieved.
A second method of fl ow control requires a fl ow control device

mounted on the outlet of the water control valve. The device is
typically a brass fi tting with an orifi ce of rubber or plastic material
that is designed to allow a specifi ed fl ow rate. On occasion, fl ow
control devices may produce velocity noise that can be reduced
by applying some back pressure from the ball valve located on the
discharge line. Slightly closing the valve will spread the pressure
drop over both devices, lessening the velocity noise. NOTE: When
EWT is below 50°F [10°C], a minimum of 2 gpm per ton (2.6 l/m

Water Coil Low Temperature Limit Setting
For all open loop systems the 30°F [-1.1°C] FP1 setting (factory

Hot Water Generator
The HWG (Hot Water Generator) or desuperheater option
provides considerable operating cost savings by utilizing excess
heat energy from the heat pump to help satisfy domestic hot
water requirements. The HWG is active throughout the year,
providing virtually free hot water when the heat pump operates
in the cooling mode or hot water at the COP of the heat pump
during operation in the heating mode. Actual HWG water
heating capacities are provided in the appropriate heat pump
performance data.
Heat pumps equipped with the HWG option include a built-in
water to refrigerant heat exchanger that eliminates the need to
tie into the heat pump refrigerant circuit in the fi eld. The control
circuit and pump are also built in for residential equipment. Figure
14 shows a typical example of HWG water piping connections on
a unit with built-in circulating pump. This piping layout reduces
scaling potential.
The temperature set point of the HWG is fi eld selectable to 125°F
or 150°F . The 150°F set point allows more heat storage from
the HWG. For example, consider the amount of heat that can be
generated by the HWG when using the 125°F set point, versus
the amount of heat that can be generated by the HWG when
using the 150°F set point.
In a typical 50 gallon two-element electric water heater the lower
element should be turned down to 100°F, or the lowest setting,
to get the most from the HWG. The tank will eventually stratify
so that the lower 80% of the tank, or 40 gallons, becomes 100°F
(controlled by the lower element). The upper 20% of the tank, or
10 gallons, will be maintained at 125°F (controlled by the upper
element).
Electric water heaters are recommended. If a gas, propane, or
oil water heater is used, a second preheat tank must be installed
(Figure 15). If the electric water heater has only a single center
element, the dual tank system is recommended to insure a usable
entering water temperature for the HWG.
Typically a single tank of at least 52 gallons (235 liters) is used to
limit installation costs and space. However, a dual tank, as shown
in Figure 15, is the most effi cient system, providing the maximum
storage and temperate source water to the HWG.
It is always advisable to use water softening equipment on
domestic water systems to reduce the scaling potential and
lengthen equipment life. In extreme water conditions, it may be
necessary to avoid the use of the HWG option since the potential
cost of frequent maintenance may offset or exceed any savings.
Consult Table 3 for scaling potential tests.

Using a 125°F set point, the HWG can heat the lower 40 gallons
of water from 100°F to 125°F, providing up to 8,330 btu’s of heat.
Using the 150°F set point, the HWG can heat the same 40 gallons
of water from 100°F to 150°F and the remaining 10 gallons of
water from 125°F to 150°F, providing a total of up to 18,743 btu’s
of heat, or more than twice as much heat as when using the
125°F set point.
This example ignored standby losses of the tank. When those
losses are considered the additional savings are even greater.

The HWG will operate any time the refrigerant temperature
is sufÄ ciently above the water temperature. Once the
HWG has satisÄ ed the water heating demand during a
heat pump run cycle, the controller will cycle the pump at
regular Intervals to determine if an additional HWG cycle
can be utilized. The microprocessor control Includes 3 DIP
switches, SW10 (HWG PUMP TEST), SW11 (HWG TEMP),
and SW12 (HWG STATUS).
SW10 HWG PUMP TEST. When this switch is in the “ON”
position, the HWG pump is forced to operate even if there

Warning! The HWG pump Is fully wired from the factory. Use
extreme caution when working around the microprocessor
control as it contains line voltage connections that presents
a shock hazard that can cause severe injury or death!
The heat pump, water piping, pump, and hot water tank should
be located where the ambient temperature does not fall below
50°F [10°C]. Keep water piping lengths at a minimum. DO NOT
use a one way length greater than 50 ft. (one way) [15 m]. See
Table 7 for recommended piping sizes and maximum lengths.
All installations must be in accordance with local codes. The
installer is responsible for knowing the local requirements, and
for performing the installation accordingly. DO NOT connect the
pump wiring until “Initial Start-Up” section, below. Powering the
pump before all installation steps are completed may damage the
pump.
Water Tank Preparation
1. Turn off power or fuel supply to the hot water tank.
2. Connect a hose to the drain valve on the water tank.
3. Shut off the cold water supply to the water tank.
4. Open the drain valve and open the pressure relief valve or a
hot water faucet to drain tank.
5. When using an existing tank, it should be fl ushed with cold
water after it is drained until the water leaving the drain hose
is clear and free of sediment.
6. Close all valves and remove the drain hose.
7. Install HWG water piping.
insure maximum utilization of the heat available from the
refrigeration system and conserve the most energy. On tanks
with both upper and lower elements and thermostats, the
lower element should be turned down to 100°F [38°C] or
the lowest setting; the upper element should be adjusted to
120-130°F [49-54°C]. Depending upon the specifi c needs
of the customer, you may want to adjust the upper element
differently. On tanks with a single thermostat, a preheat tank
should be used (Fig 15).
6. Replace access cover(s) and restore power or
fuel supply.
Initial Start-Up
1. Make sure all valves in the HWG water circuit are
fully open.
2. Turn on the heat pump and allow it to run for
10-15 minutes.
3. Set SW12 to the “OFF” position (enabled) to engage the
HWG.
4. The HWG pump should not run if the compressor is not
running.
5. The temperature difference between the water entering and
leaving the HWG coil should be approximately 5-10°F [36°C].
6. Allow the unit to operate for 20 to 30 minutes to insure that it
is functioning properly.
HWG Water Piping
1. Using at least 5/8” [16mm] O.D. copper, route and install the
water piping and valves as shown in Figures 14 or 15. Install
an approved anti-scald valve if the 150°F HWG setpoint is or
will be selected. An appropriate method must be employed
to purge air from the HWG piping. This may be accomplished
by fl ushing water through the HWG (as In Figures 14 and
15) or by Installing an air vent at the high point of the HWG
piping system.
2. Insulate all HWG water piping with no less than 3/8” [10mm]
wall closed cell insulation.
3. Open both shut off valves and make sure the tank drain valve
is closed.
Water Tank Refi ll
1. Close valve #4. Ensure that the HWG valves (valves #2 and
#3) are open. Open the cold water supply (valve #1) to fi ll the
tank through the HWG piping. This will purge air from the
HWG piping.
2. Open a hot water faucet to vent air from the system until
water fl ows from faucet; turn off faucet. Open valve #4.
3.
Depress the hot water tank pressure relief valve handle to
ensure that there is no air remaining in the tank.
4. Inspect all work for leaks.
5.
Before restoring power or fuel supply to the water heater,
adjust the temperature setting on the tank thermostat(s) to

Power Connection
Line voltage connection is made by connecting the incoming line
voltage wires to the “L” side of the contactor as shown in Figure
16. Consult Tables 4a through 4b for correct fuse size.
208 Volt Operation
All residential 208-230 Volt units are factory wired for 230 Volt
operation. The transformer may be switched to the 208V tap as
illustrated on the wiring diagram by switching the red (208V) and
the orange (230V) wires at the contactor terminal.
Blower Speed Selection – Units with PSC Motor
PSC (Permanent Split Capacitor) blower fan speed can be
changed by moving the blue wire on the fan motor terminal
block to the desired speed as shown in Figure 17. Optional ECM
motor speeds are set via low voltage controls (see “ECM Blower
Control”). Most units are shipped on the medium speed tap.
Consult specifi cations catalog for specifi c unit airfl ow tables.
Typical unit design delivers rated airfl ow at nominal static (0.15 in.
w.g. [37Pa]) on medium speed and rated airfl ow at a higher static
(0.4 to 0.5 in. w.g. [100 to 125 Pa]) on high speed for applications
where higher static is required. Low speed will deliver
approximately 85% of rated airfl ow at 0.10 in. w.g. [25 Pa].
Unit Power Supply
(see electrical table for wire
and breaker size)
Special Note for AHRI Testing: To achieve rated airfl ow for
AHRI testing purposes on all PSC products, it is necessary to
change the fan speed to “HI” speed. When the heat pump has
experienced less than 100 operational hours and the coil has
not had suffi cient time to be “seasoned”, it is necessary to clean
the coil with a mild surfactant such as Calgon to remove the oils
left by manufacturing processes and enable the condensate to
properly “sheet” off of the coil.

Low Water Temperature Cutout Selection
The CXM control allows the Ä eld selection of low water (or
water-antifreeze solution) temperature limit by clipping jumper
JW3, which changes the sensing temperature associated with
thermistor FP1. Note that the FP1 thermistor is located on
the refrigerant line between the coaxial heat exchanger and
expansion device (TXV). Therefore, FP1 is sensing refrigerant
temperature, not water temperature, which is a better indicatio
of how water Å ow rate/temperature is affecting the refrigeration
circuit.
The factory setting for FP1 is for systems using water (30°F
[-1.1°C] refrigerant temperature). In low water temperature
(extended range) applications with antifreeze (most ground
loops), jumper JW3 should be clipped as shown in Figure
19 to change the setting to 10°F [-12.2°C] refrigerant
temperature, a more suitable temperature when using
an antifreeze solution. All residential units include water/
refrigerant circuit insulation to prevent internal condensation,
which is required when operating with entering water
temperatures below 59°F [15°C].

Accessory Connections
A terminal paralleling the compressor contactor coil has been
provided on the CXM control. Terminal “A” is designed to control
accessory devices, such as water valves. Note: This terminal
should be used only with 24 Volt signals and not line voltage.
Terminal “A” is energized with the compressor contactor. See
Figure 20 or the specifi c unit wiring diagram for details.
Figure 20: Accessory Wiring
Water Solenoid Valves
An external solenoid valve(s) should be used on ground water
installations to shut off fl ow to the unit when the compressor
is not operating. A slow closing valve may be required to help
reduce water hammer. Figure 20 shows typical wiring for a
24VAC external solenoid valve. Figures 21 and 22 illustrate
typical slow closing water control valve wiring for Taco 500 series
(Manufacturer P/N AVM...) and Taco SBV series valves. Slow
closing valves take approximately 60 seconds to open (very little
water will fl ow before 45 seconds). Once fully open, an end switch
allows the compressor to be energized. Only relay or triac based
electronic thermostats should be used with slow closing valves.
When wired as shown, the slow closing valve will operate properly
with the following notations:
1. The valve will remain open during a unit lockout.
2. The valve will draw approximately 25-35 VA through the “Y”
signal of the thermostat. Note: This valve can overheat the
anticipator of an electromechanical thermostat. Therefore,
only relay or triac based thermostats should be used.
Two-stage Units
HT two-stage units should be designed with two parallel valves
for ground water applications to limit water use during fi rst stage
operation. For example, at 1.5 gpm/ ton [2.0 l/m per kW], a 048
unit requires 6 gpm [23 l/m] for full load (2nd stage) operation,
but only 4 gpm [15 l/m] during 1st stage operation. Since the unit
will operate on fi rst stage 80-90% of the time, signifi cant water
savings can be realized by using two parallel solenoid valves with
two fl ow regulators. In the example above, stage one solenoid
would be installed with a 4 gpm [15 l/m] fl ow regulator on the
outlet, while stage two would utilize a 2 gpm [8 l/m] fl ow regulator.
When stage one is operating, the second solenoid valve will be
closed. When stage two is operating, both valves will be open,
allowing full load fl ow rate.
Figure 23 illustrates piping for two-stage solenoid valves. Review
fi gures 20-22 for wiring of stage one valve. Stage two valve should
be wired between terminal “Y2” (ECM board) and terminal “C.”
Note: When EWT is below 50°F [10°C], a minimum of 2 gpm per
ton (2.6 l/m per kW) is required.

The thermostat should be located on an interior wall in a
larger room, away from supply duct drafts. DO NOT locate
the thermostat in areas subject to sunlight, drafts or on
external walls. The wire access hole behind the thermostat
may in certain cases need to be sealed to prevent erroneous
temperature measurement. Position the thermostat back
plate against the wall so that it appears level and so the
thermostat wires protrude through the middle of the back
plate. Mark the position of the back plate mounting holes
and drill holes with a 3/16” (5mm) bit. Install supplied
anchors and secure plate to the wall. Thermostat wire must
be 18 AWG wire. Wire the appropriate thermostat as shown
in Figures 24 and 25 to the low voltage terminal strip on the
CXM (units with PSC motor) or ECM control board (units
with ECM motor). Practically any heat pump thermostat will
work with these units, provided it has the correct number of
heating and cooling stages.

ECM Blower Control
The ECM fan is controlled by an interface board that converts
thermostat inputs and fi eld selectable CFM settings to signals
used by the ECM motor controller. Units manufactured before
July 2005 have version I (P/N 69243707). Units manufactured
after July 2005 have version II (P/N 17B0019N01). Fan speeds
are selected with jumpers for version I or via a nine position DIP
switch for version II. To take full advantage of the ECM motor
features, a multi-stage thermostat should be used (2-stage
heat/2-stage cool or 3-stage heat/2-stage cool).
HFC-410A packaged units built after May 2009 have ECM
controller version III (P/N 17B0034N01). This controller includes
logic and a relay to control the HWG functions.
Note: Power must be off to the unit for at least three seconds
before the ECM motor will recognize a speed change. The motor
will recognize a change in the CFM Adjust or dehumidifi cation
mode settings while the unit is powered.
There are four different airfl ow settings from lowest airfl ow rate
(speed tap 1) to the highest airfl ow rate (speed tap 4). The charts
below indicate settings for both versions of the ECM interface
board, followed by detailed information for each setting.
Cooling Settings: The cooling setting determines the cooling
(normal) CFM for all units with ECM motor. Cooling (normal)
setting is used when the unit is not in dehumidifi cation mode.
Tap 1 is the lowest CFM setting, while tap 4 is the highest CFM
setting. To avoid air coil freeze-up, tap 1 may not
operating in the normal mode, the cooling airfl ow settings
are determined by the cooling tap setting above. When
dehumidifi cation is enabled there is a reduction in airfl ow
in cooling to increase the moisture removal of the heat pump.
Consult submittal data or specifi cations catalog for the specifi c
unit series and model to correlate speed tap to airfl ow in CFM.
The dehumidifi cation mode can be enabled in two ways.
1. Constant Dehumidifi cation Mode: When the dehumidifi cation
mode is selected (via DIP switch or jumper setting), the ECM
motor will operate with a multiplier applied to the cooling
CFM settings (approx. 20-25% lower airfl ow). Any time the
unit is running in the cooling mode, it will operate at the lower
airfl ow to improve latent capacity. The “DEHUM” LED will be
illuminated at all times. Heating airfl ow is not affected. NOTE:
Do not select dehumidifi cation mode if cooling setting is tap 1.
2. Automatic (Humidistat-controlled) Dehumidifi cation Mode:
When the dehumidifi cation mode is selected (via DIP switch
or jumper setting) AND a humidistat is connected to terminal
DH (version II) or HUM (version I), the cooling airfl ow will
only be reduced when the humidistat senses that additional
dehumidifi cation is required. The DH (or HUM) terminal is
reverse logic. Therefore, a humidistat (not dehumidistat) is
required. The “DEHUM” LED will be illuminated only when
the humidistat is calling for dehumidifi cation mode. Heating
airfl ow is not affected. NOTE: Do not select dehumidifi cation
mode if cooling setting is tap 1.
be used if the dehumidifi cation mode is selected. Consult
submittal data or specifi cations catalog for the specifi c unit series
and model to correlate speed tap setting to airfl ow in CFM.
Heating Settings: The heating setting determines the heating
CFM for HT units. Tap 1 is the lowest CFM setting, while tap 4 is
the highest CFM setting. Consult submittal data or specifi cations
catalog for the specifi c unit series and model to correlate speed
tap setting to airfl ow in CFM.
Auxiliary/Emergency Heat Settings: The auxiliary/emergency
heat setting determines the CFM when the unit is in auxiliary
heat or emergency heat mode. This setting is used for residential
units with internal electric heat. When auxiliary electric heat is
energized (i.e. compressor and electric heat), the greater of the
auxiliary/emergency or heating setting will be used. A “G” (fan)
signal must be present from the thermostat for electric heat to
operate. Consult the submittal data or specifi cations catalog for
the specifi c unit series and model to correlate speed tap setting to
airfl ow in CFM.
CFM Adjust Settings: The CFM adjust setting allows four
selections. The NORM setting is the factory default position. The
+ or – settings adjust the airfl ow by +/- 15%. The +/- settings are
used to “fi ne tune” airfl ow adjustments. The TEST setting runs the
ECM motor at 70% torque, which causes the motor to operate like
a standard PSC motor, and disables the CFM counter.
Dehumidifi cation Mode Settings: The dehumidifi cation mode
setting provides fi eld selection of humidity control. When

CXM Controls
CXM Control
For detailed control information, see CXM Application, Operation
and Maintenance (AOM) manual (part #97B0003N12).
Field Selectable Inputs
Test mode: Test mode allows the service technician to check
the operation of the control in a timely manner. By momentarily
shorting the test terminals, the CXM control enters a 20 minute
test mode period in which all time delays are sped up 15 times.
Upon entering test mode, the status LED will fl ash a code
representing the last fault. For diagnostic ease at the thermostat,
the alarm relay will also cycle during test mode. The alarm relay
will cycle on and off similar to the status LED to indicate a code
representing the last fault, at the thermostat. Test mode can be
exited by shorting the test terminals for 3 seconds.
Retry Mode: If the control is attempting a retry of a fault,
the status LED will slow fl ash (slow fl ash = one fl ash every 2
seconds) to indicate the control is in the process of retrying.
Field Confi guration Options
Note: In the following fi eld confi guration options, jumper wires
should be clipped ONLY when power is removed from the CXM
control.
Water coil low temperature limit setting: Jumper 3 (JW3-FP1 Low
Temp) provides fi eld selection of temperature
limit setting for FP1 of 30°F or 10°F [-1°F or -12°C] (refrigerant
temperature).
Not Clipped = 30°F [-1°C]. Clipped = 10°F [-12°C].
Air coil low temperature limit setting: Jumper 2 (JW2-FP2 Low
Temp) provides fi eld selection of temperature limit setting for
FP2 of 30°F or 10°F [-1°F or -12°C] (refrigerant temperature).
Note: This jumper should only be clipped under extenuating
circumstances, as recommended by
the factory.
Not Clipped = 30°F [-1°C]. Clipped = 10°F [-12°C].
Alarm relay setting: Jumper 1 (JW1-AL2 Dry) provides fi eld
selection of the alarm relay terminal AL2 to be jumpered to 24VAC
or to be a dry contact (no connection).
Not Clipped = AL2 connected to R. Clipped = AL2 dry contact
(no connection).
DIP Switches
Note: In the following fi eld confi guration options, DIP switches
should only be changed when power is removed from the CXM
control.
DIP switch 1: Unit Performance Sentinel Disable - provides fi eld
selection to disable the UPS feature.
On = Enabled. Off = Disabled.
DIP switch 2: Stage 2 Selection - provides selection of whether
compressor has an “on” delay. If set to stage 2, the compressor
will have a 3 second delay before energizing. Also, if set for stage
2, the alarm relay will NOT cycle during test mode.
On = Stage 1. Off = Stage 2
DIP switch 3: Not Used.
DIP switch 4: DDC Output at EH2 - provides selection for DDC
operation. If set to “DDC Output at EH2,” the EH2 terminal will
continuously output the last fault code of the controller. If set to
“EH2 normal,” EH2 will operate as standard electric heat output.
On = EH2 Normal. Off = DDC Output at EH2.
NOTE: Some CXM controls only have a 2 position DIP switch
package. If this is the case, this option can be selected by
clipping the jumper which is in position 4
of SW1.
Jumper not clipped = EH2 Normal. Jumper clipped = DDC
Output at EH2.
DIP switch 5: Factory Setting - Normal position is “On.” Do not
change selection unless instructed to do so by the factory.

CXM Controls
Safety Features – CXM Control
The safety features below are provided to protect the compressor,
heat exchangers, wiring and other components from damage
caused by operation outside of design conditions.
Anti-short cycle protection: The control features a 5 minute antishort cycle protection for the compressor.
Note: The 5 minute anti-short cycle also occurs at power up.
Random start: The control features a random start upon power up
of 5-80 seconds.
Fault Retry: In Fault Retry mode, the Status LED begins slowly
fl ashing to signal that the control is trying to recover from a fault
input. The control will stage off the outputs and then “try again”
to satisfy the thermostat input call. Once the thermostat input call
is satisfi ed, the control will continue on as if no fault occurred. If
3 consecutive faults occur without satisfying the thermostat input
call, the control will go into “lockout” mode. The last fault causing
the lockout will be stored in memory and can be viewed by going
into test mode. Note: FP1/FP2 faults are factory set at only one
try.
Lockout: In lockout mode, the status LED will begin fast fl ashing.
The compressor relay is turned off immediately. Lockout mode can
be “soft” reset by turning off the thermostat (or satisfying the call).
A “soft” reset keeps the fault in memory but resets the control. A
“hard” reset (disconnecting power to the control) resets the control
and erases fault memory.
Lockout with emergency heat: While in lockout mode, if W becomes
active (CXM), emergency heat mode will occur.
High pressure switch: When the high pressure switch opens due
to high refrigerant pressures, the compressor relay is de-energized
immediately since the high pressure switch is in series with the
compressor contactor coil. The high pressure fault recognition is
immediate (does not delay for 30 continuous seconds before deenergizing the compressor).
High pressure lockout code = 2
Example: 2 quick fl ashes, 10 sec pause, 2 quick fl ashes, 10 sec.
pause, etc.
Low pressure switch: The low pressure switch must be open and
remain open for 30 continuous seconds during “on” cycle to be
recognized as a low pressure fault. If the low pressure switch is open
for 30 seconds prior to compressor power up it will be considered a
low pressure (loss of charge) fault. The low pr essure switch input is
bypassed for the initial 60 seconds of a compressor run cycle.
Low pressure lockout code = 3
Water coil low temperature (FP1): The FP1 thermistor temperature
must be below the selected low temperature limit setting for 30
continuous seconds during a compressor run cycle to be recognized
as a FP1 fault. The FP1 input is bypassed for the initial 120 seconds
of a compressor run cycle. FP1 is set at the factory for one try.
Therefore, the control will go into lockout mode once the FP1 fault
has occurred.
FP1 lockout code = 4
Air coil low temperature (FP2): The FP2 thermistor temperature must
be below the selected low temperature limit setting for 30 continuous
seconds during a compressor run cycle to be recognized as a FP2
fault. The FP2 input is bypassed for the initial 120 seconds of a
compressor run cycle. FP2 is set at the factory for one try. Therefore,
the control will go into lockout mode once the FP2 fault has occurred.
FP2 lockout code = 5
Condensate overfl ow: The condensate overfl ow sensor must
sense overfl ow level for 30 continuous seconds to be recognized
as a CO fault. Condensate overfl ow will be monitored at all times.
CO lockout code = 6
Over/under voltage shutdown: An over/under voltage condition
exists when the control voltage is outside the range of 18VAC to
31.5VAC. Over/under voltage shut down is a self-resetting safety.
If the voltage comes back within range for at least 0.5 seconds,
normal operation is restored. This is not considered a fault or
lockout. If the CXM is in over/under voltage shutdown for 15
minutes, the alarm relay will close.
Over/under voltage shut down code = 7
Unit Performance Sentinel-UPS (patent pending): The UPS feature
indicates when the heat pump is operating ineffi ciently. A UPS
condition exists when:
a) In heating mode with compressor energized, FP2 is greater
than 125°F [52°C] for 30 continuous seconds, or:
b) In cooling mode with compressor energized, FP1 is greater
than 125°F [52°C] for 30 continuous seconds, or:
c) I
n cooling mode with compressor energized, FP2 is less than
40°F [4.5°C] for 30 continuous seconds. If a UPS condition
occurs, the control will immediately go to UPS warning. The
status LED will remain on as if the control is in normal mode.
Outputs of the control, excluding LED and alarm relay, will NOT
be affected by UPS. The UPS condition cannot occur during a
compressor off cycle. During UPS warning, the alarm relay will
cycle on and off. The cycle rate will be “on” for 5 seconds, “off”
for 25 seconds, “on” for 5 seconds, “off” for 25 seconds, etc.
UPS warning code = 8
Swapped FP1/FP2 thermistors: During test mode, the control
monitors to see if the FP1 and FP2 thermistors are in the
appropriate places. If the control is in test mode, the control will
lockout, with code 9, after 30 seconds if:
a) The compressor is on in the cooling mode and the FP1 sensor
is colder than the FP2 sensor, or:
b) The compressor is on in the heating mode and the FP2 sensor
is colder than the FP1 sensor.
Swapped FP1/FP2 thermistor code = 9.
Diagnostic Features
The LED on the CXM board advises the technician of the current
status of the CXM control. The LED can display either the current
CXM mode or the last fault in memory if in test mode. If there is no
fault in memory, the LED will fl ash Code 1 (when in test mode).

CXM Controls
CXM Control Start-up Operation
The control will not operate until all inputs and safety controls
are checked for normal conditions. The compressor will have a
5 minute anti-short cycle delay at power-up. The fi rst time after
power-up that there is a call for compressor, the compressor will
follow a 5 to 80 second random start delay. After the random start
delay and anti-short cycle delay, the compressor relay will be
energized. On all subsequent compressor calls, the random start
delay is omitted.

CXM Thermostat Details
Thermostat Compatibility - Most all heat pump thermostats can be used with the CXM control. However Heat/Cool stats are
NOT compatible with the CXM.
Anticipation Leakage Current - Maximum leakage current for
"Y" is 50 mA and for "W" is 20mA. Triacs can be used if leakage
current is less than above. Thermostats with anticipators can be
used if anticipation current is less than that specifi ed above.
Thermostat Signals -
• "Y" and "W" have a 1 second recognition time when
being activated or being removed.
• "O" and "G" are direct pass through signals but are
monitored by the micro processor.
• "R" and "C" are from the transformer.
• "AL1" and "AL2" originate from the alarm relay.
• "A" is paralleled with the compressor output for use
with well water solenoid valves.
• The "Y" 1/4" quick connect is a connection point to the
"Y" input terminal P1 for factory use. This "Y" terminal
can be used to drive panel mounted relays such as the
loop pump relay.

Environment – Units are designed for indoor installation only. Never install units in areas subject to freezing or where humidity levels could
cause cabinet condensation (such as unconditioned spaces subject to 100% outside air).
Power Supply – A voltage variation of +/– 10% of nameplate utilization voltage is acceptable.
Determination of operating limits is dependent primarily upon three factors: 1) return air temperature. 2) water temperature, and 3)
ambient temperature. When any one of these factors is at minimum or maximum levels, the other two factors should be at normal levels
to insure proper unit operation. Extreme variations in temperature and humidity and/or corrosive water or air will adversely affect unit
performance, reliability, and service life. Consult Table 8a for operating limits.

Unit Start-Up and Operating Conditions
Unit and System Checkout
BEFORE POWERING SYSTEM, please check the following:
UNIT CHECKOUT
Balancing/shutoff valves: Insure that all isolation valves are
open and water control valves are wired.
Line voltage and wiring: Verify that voltage is within an
acceptable range for the unit and wiring and fuses/breakers
are properly sized. Verify that low voltage wiring is complete.
Unit control transformer: Insure that transformer has the
properly selected voltage tap. Residential 208-230V units are
factory wired for 230V operation unless specifi ed otherwise.
Loop/water piping is complete and purged of air. Water/
piping is clean.
Antifreeze has been added if necessary.
Entering water and air: Insure that entering water and air
temperatures are within operating limits of Table 8.
Low water temperature cutout: Verify that low water
temperature cut-out on the CXM/CXM control is properly set.
Unit fan: Manually rotate fan to verify free rotation and insure
that blower wheel is secured to the motor shaft. Be sure to
remove any shipping supports if needed. DO NOT oil motors
upon start-up. Fan motors are pre-oiled at the factory.
Check unit fan speed selection and compare to design
requirements.
Condensate line: Verify that condensate line is open and
properly pitched toward drain.
HWG pump is disconnected unless piping is completed and
air has been purged from the system.
Water fl ow balancing: Record inlet and outlet water
temperatures for each heat pump upon startup. This check
can eliminate nuisance trip outs and high velocity water fl ow
that could erode heat exchangers.
Unit air coil and fi lters: Insure that fi lter is clean and
accessible. Clean air coil of all manufacturing oils.
Unit controls: Verify that CXM fi eld selection options are
properly set. Low voltage wiring is complete.
Blower speed is set.
Service/access panels are in place.
SYSTEM CHECKOUT
System water temperature: Check water temperature for
proper range and also verify heating and cooling set points
for proper operation.
System pH: Check and adjust water pH if necessary to
maintain a level between 6 and 8.5. Proper pH promotes
longevity of hoses and fi ttings (see Table 3).
System fl ushing: Verify that all air is purged from the system.
Air in the system can cause poor operation or system
corrosion. Water used in the system must be potable quality
initially and clean of dirt, piping slag, and strong chemical
cleaning agents. Some antifreeze solutions may require
distilled water.
Flow Controller pump(s): Verify that the pump(s) is wired,
purged of air, and in operating condition.
System controls: Verify that system controls function and
operate in the proper sequence.
Low water temperature cutout: Verify that low water
temperature cut-out controls are set properly
(FP1 - JW3).
Miscellaneous: Note any questionable aspects of
the installation.
CAUTION!
CAUTION! Verify that ALL water control valves are open
and allow water fl ow prior to engaging the compressor.
Freezing of the coax or water lines can permanently
damage the heat pump.
CAUTION!
CAUTION! To avoid equipment damage, DO NOT
leave system fi lled in a building without heat during the
winter unless antifreeze is added to the water loop. Heat
exchangers never fully drain by themselves and will
freeze unless winterized with antifreeze.
Unit Start-up Procedure
1. Turn the thermostat fan position to “ON.” Blower
should start.
2. Balance air fl ow at registers.
3. Adjust all valves to their full open position. Turn on the line
power to all heat pump units.
4. Room temperature should be within the minimum-maximum
ranges of Table 8b. During start-up checks, loop water
temperature entering the heat pump should be between 30°F
[-1°C] and 95°F [35°C].
Two factors determine the operating limits of water source
5.
heat pumps, (a) return air temperature, and (b) water
temperature. When any one of these factors is at a minimum
or maximum level, the other factor must be at normal level to
insure proper unit operation.
a. Adjust the unit thermostat to the warmest setting. Place
the thermostat mode switch in the “COOL” position.
Slowly reduce thermostat setting until the compressor
activates.
b. Check for cool air delivery at the unit grille within a few
minutes after the unit has begun to operate.
Note: Units have a fi ve minute time delay in the control
circuit that can be bypassed on the CXM/CXM control
board as shown below in Figure 27. See controls
description for details.
c. Verify that the compressor is on and that the water fl ow
rate is correct by measuring pressure drop through the
heat exchanger using the P/T plugs and comparing to
Tables 9a through 9b.
d. Check the elevation and cleanliness of the condensate
lines. Dripping may be a sign of a blocked line. Check
that the condensate trap is fi lled to provide a water seal.
e. Refer to Table 10. Check the temperature of both entering
and leaving water. If temperature is within range, proceed
with the test. If temperature is outside of the operating
range, check refrigerant pressures and compare to Tables
11 through 12. Verify correct water fl ow by comparing unit
32
Installation, Operation & Maintenance HTV/HTD/HTH SERIESHeat Controller, Inc.
Unit Start-Up Procedure
pressure drop across the heat exchanger versus the data
in Tables 9a through 9b. Heat of rejection (HR) can be
calculated and compared to catalog data capacity pages.
The formula for HR for systems with water is as follows:
HR = TD x GPM x 500, where TD is the temperature
difference between the entering and leaving water,
and GPM is the fl ow rate in U.S. GPM, determined by
comparing the pressure drop across the heat exchanger
to Tables 9a through 9b.
f.
Check air temperature drop across the air coil when
compressor is operating. Air temperature drop should be
between 15°F and 25°F [8°C and 14°C].
g. Turn thermostat to “OFF” position. A hissing noise
indicates proper functioning of the reversing valve.
6. Allow fi ve (5) minutes between tests for pressure to equalize
before beginning heating test.
a. Adjust the thermostat to the lowest setting. Place the
thermostat mode switch in the “HEAT” position.
b. Slowly raise the thermostat to a higher temperature until
the compressor activates.
c. Check for warm air delivery within a few minutes after the
unit has begun to operate.
d. Refer to Table 10. Check the temperature of both entering
and leaving water. If temperature is within range, proceed
with the test. If temperature is outside of the operating
range, check refrigerant pressures and compare to Tables
11 through 12. Verify correct water fl ow by comparing
unit pressure drop across the heat exchanger versus the
data in Tables 9a through 9b. Heat of extraction (HE) can
be calculated and compared to submittal data capacity
pages. The formula for HE for systems with water is as
follows:
HE = TD x GPM x 500, where TD is the temperature
difference between the entering and leaving water,
and GPM is the fl ow rate in U.S. GPM, determined by
comparing the pressure drop across the heat exchanger to
Tables 9a through 9b.
e.
Check air temperature rise across the air coil when
compressor is operating. Air temperature rise should be
between 20°F and 30°F [11°C and 17°C].
f. Check for vibration, noise, and water leaks.
7. If unit fails to operate, perform troubleshooting analysis
(see troubleshooting section). If the check described fails
to reveal the problem and the unit still does not operate,
contact a trained service technician to insure proper
diagnosis and repair of the equipment.
8. When testing is complete, set system to maintain desired
comfort level.
9. BE CERTAIN TO FILL OUT AND RETURN ALL WARRANTY
REGISTRATION PAPERWORK.
WARNING! When the disconnect switch is closed, high
voltage is present in some areas of the electrical panel.
Exercise caution when working with energized equipment.
CAUTION! Verify that ALL water control valves are open
and allow water fl ow prior to engaging the compressor.
Freezing of the coax or water lines can permanently
damage the heat pump.
WARNING!
CAUTION!
Note: If performance during any mode appears abnormal, refer
to the CXM section or troubleshooting section of this manual.
To obtain maximum performance, the air coil should be cleaned
before start-up. A 10% solution of dishwasher detergent and
water is recommended.

Preventive Maintenance
Water Coil Maintenance
(Direct ground water applications only) - If the system is installed
in an area with a known high mineral content (125 P.P.M. or
greater) in the water, it is best to establish a periodic maintenance
schedule with the owner so the coil can be checked regularly.
Consult the well water applications section of this manual for a
more detailed water coil material selection. Should periodic coil
cleaning be necessary, use standard coil cleaning procedures,
which are compatible with the heat exchanger material and
copper water lines. Generally, the more water fl owing through
the unit, the less chance for scaling. Therefore, 1.5 gpm per ton
[2.0 l/m per kW] is recommended as a minimum fl ow. Minimum fl ow rate for entering water temperatures below 50°F [10°C] is 2.0
gpm per ton [2.6 l/m per kW].
Water Coil Maintenance
(All other water loop applications)
Generally water coil maintenance is not needed for closed loop
systems. However, if the piping is known to have high dirt or
debris content, it is best to establish a periodic maintenance
schedule with the owner so the water coil can be checked
regularly. Dirty installations are typically the result of deterioration
of iron or galvanized piping or components in the system.
Open cooling towers requiring heavy chemical treatment and
mineral buildup through water use can also contribute to higher
maintenance. Should periodic coil cleaning be necessary, use
standard coil cleaning procedures, which are compatible with both
the heat exchanger material and copper water lines. Generally,
the more water fl owing through the unit, the less chance for
scaling. However, fl ow rates over 3 gpm per ton (3.9 l/m per kW)
can produce water (or debris) velocities that can erode the heat
exchanger wall and ultimately produce leaks.
Hot Water Generator Coils
See water coil maintenance for ground water units. If the potable
water is hard or not chemically softened, the high temperatures
of the desuperheater will tend to scale even quicker than the
water coil and may need more frequent inspections. In areas with
extremely hard water, a HWG is not recommended.
months to minimize the problem. The condensate pan may also
need to be cleaned periodically to insure indoor air quality. The
condensate drain can pick up lint and dirt, especially with dirty
fi lters. Inspect the drain twice a year to avoid the possibility of
plugging and eventual overfl ow.
Compressor
Conduct annual amperage checks to insure that amp draw is no
more than 10% greater than indicated on the serial plate data.
Fan Motors
All units have lubricated fan motors. Fan motors should never be
lubricated unless obvious, dry operation is suspected. Periodic
maintenance oiling is not recommended, as it will result in dirt
accumulating in the excess oil and cause eventual motor failure.
Conduct annual dry operation check and amperage check to
insure amp draw is no more than 10% greater than indicated on
serial plate data.
Air Coil
The air coil must be cleaned to obtain maximum performance.
Check once a year under normal operating conditions and, if
dirty, brush or vacuum clean. Care must be taken not to damage
the aluminum fi ns while cleaning. CAUTION: Fin edges are sharp.
Cabinet
Do not allow water to stay in contact with the cabinet for long
periods of time to prevent corrosion of the cabinet sheet metal.
Generally, vertical cabinets are set up from the fl oor a few inches
[7 - 8 cm] to prevent water from entering the cabinet. The cabinet
can be cleaned using a mild detergent.
Refrigerant System
To maintain sealed circuit integrity, do not install service gauges
unless unit operation appears abnormal. Reference the operating
charts for pressures and temperatures. Verify that air and water
fl ow rates are at proper levels before servicing the refrigerant
circuit.
Filters
Filters must be clean to obtain maximum performance. Filters
should be inspected every month under normal operating
conditions and be replaced when necessary. Units should never
be operated without a fi lter.
Washable, high effi ciency, electrostatic fi lters, when dirty, can
exhibit a very high pressure drop for the fan motor and reduce
air fl ow, resulting in poor performance. It is especially important
to provide consistent washing of these fi lters (in the opposite
direction of the normal air fl ow) once per month using a high
pressure wash similar to those found at self-serve car washes.
Condensate Drain
In areas where airborne bacteria may produce a “slimy”
substance in the drain pan, it may be necessary to treat the drain
pan chemically with an algaecide approximately every three

Troubleshooting
General
If operational diffi culties are encountered, perform the preliminary
checks below before referring to the troubleshooting charts.
• Verify that the unit is receiving electrical supply power.
• Make sure the fuses in the fused disconnect switches
are intact.
After completing the preliminary checks described above,
inspect for other obvious problems such as leaking connections,
broken or disconnected wires, etc. If everything appears to
be in order, but the unit still fails to operate properly, refer to
the “CXM Troubleshooting Process Flowchart” or “Functional
Troubleshooting Chart.”
CXM Board
CXM board troubleshooting in general is best summarized as
simply verifying inputs and outputs. After inputs and outputs
have been verifi ed, board operation is confi rmed and the problem
must be elsewhere. Below are some general guidelines for
troubleshooting the CXM control.
Field Inputs
All inputs are 24VAC from the thermostat and can be verifi ed
using a volt meter between C and Y, G, O, W. 24VAC will be
present at the terminal (for example, between “Y” and “C”) if the
thermostat is sending an input to the CXM board.
Sensor Inputs
All sensor inputs are ‘paired wires’ connecting each component to
the board. Therefore, continuity on pressure switches, for example
can be checked at the board connector.
CXM Troubleshooting Process Flowchart/Functional
Troubleshooting Chart
The “CXM Functional Troubleshooting Process Flowchart”
is a quick overview of how to start diagnosing a suspected
problem, using the fault recognition features of the CXM board.
The “Functional Troubleshooting Chart” on the following page
is a more comprehensive method for identifying a number of
malfunctions that may occur, and is not limited to just the CXM
controls. Within the chart are fi ve columns:
• The “Fault” column describes the symptoms.
• Columns 2 and 3 identify in which mode the fault is likey to
occur, heating or cooling.
• The “Possible Cause column” identifi es the most likely sources
of the problem.
• The “Solution” column describes what should be done to
correct the problem.
WARNING!
WARNING! HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE! DISCONNECT
ALL ELECTRIC POWER INCLUDING REMOTE
DISCONNECTS BEFORE SERVICING.
Failure to disconnect power before servicing can cause
severe personal injury or death.
The thermistor resistance should be measured with the
connector removed so that only the impedance of the thermistor
is measured. If desired, this reading can be compared to the
thermistor resistance chart shown in the CXM AOM manual. An
ice bath can be used to check calibration of the thermistor.
Outputs
The compressor relay is 24VAC and can be verifi ed using a
voltmeter. The fan signal is passed through the board to the
external fan relay (units with PSC motors only). The alarm relay
can either be 24VAC as shipped or dry contacts for use with
DDC controls by clipping the JW1 jumper. Electric heat outputs
are 24VDC “ground sinking” and require a volt meter set for DC
to verify operation. The terminal marked “24VDC” is the 24VDC
supply to the electric heat board; terminal “EH1” is stage 1 electric
heat; terminal “EH2” is stage 2 electric heat. When electric heat
is energized (thermostat is sending a “W” input to the CXM
controller), there will be 24VDC between terminal “24VDC” and
“EH1” (stage 1 electric heat) and/or “EH2” (stage 2 electric heat).
A reading of 0VDC between “24VDC” and “EH1” or “EH2” will
indicate that the CXM board is NOT sending an output signal to
the electric heat board.
Test Mode
Test mode can be entered for 20 minutes by shorting the test
pins. The CXM board will automatically exit test mode after 20
minutes.

Troubleshooting Form
Note: Never connect refrigerant gauges during startup procedures. Conduct water-side analysis using P/T ports to determine water
fl ow and temperature difference. If water-side analysis shows poor performance, refrigerant troubleshooting may be required. Connect
refrigerant gauges as a last resort.
