MANUA
Congratulations . . .Congratulations . . .
On your purchase of our Heat Pump. This energy efficient system has been precision designed , manufactu red of high quality materials and has passed many vigorous inspections and tests to ensure years of satisfactory service.
Please read this booklet thoroughly. It will help you unders tand your heat pump and will tell you how to operate it ef ficiently and how to obtain the greatest measure of comfort at the lowest operating expense.
We appreciate your interest in our products and your decision to purchase our Heat Pump. Enjoy your comfort.
This Heat Pump has been specially de­veloped and built as a heat pump - to meet the dual needs of heating and cool­ing. It’s not just an air conditioner with extra parts. That’s why you can rely on efficient, trouble-free operation.
Your system is fully automatic. Set the thermostat and forget it. And it’s auto­matically protected from damage by voltage fluctuations or excessive heat­ing or cooling demands.
Your split system heat pump consists of two units - one installed outdoors and one installed indoors. The indoor unit may be installed in a basement, attic, or crawl space.
HOW YOUR HEAT PUMP WORKS
If your hand is wet and you blow on it, it feels cool because some of the moisture is evaporating and becoming a vapor. This process requires heat. The heat is being taken from your hand, so your hand feels cool.
That’s what happens with a heat pump. During the cooling cycle, your system will remove heat and humidity from your home and will transfer this heat to the outdoor air.
During the heating cycle, your system will remove heat and humidity from the outdoor air and will transfer this heat to your home. This is possible because even 0°F outdoor air contains a great deal of heat. Remember that your heat pump doesn’t generate much heat, it merely transfers it from one place to another.
Set your thermostat for heating or for cooling. Then set it for the desired tem­perature. Find the temperature that is most comfortable for you, and then leave your thermostat alone. Manually moving the thermostat up or down to extreme settings will not speed-up tem­perature changes. Avoid moving the thermostat up during heating - particu­larly where a demand type electric meter is installed. This w ill increase your oper­ating cost substa nti a lly.
CAUTION: The Main power to the sys­tem must be kept “ON” at all times to prevent damage to the outdoor unit compressor. If necessary, the thermo­stat control switch should be used to turn the system “OFF”. Should the main power be disconnected or interrupted for 8 hours or longer, DO NOT attempt to start the system for 8 hours after the power has been restored to the outdoor unit. If heat is needed during this 8 hour period, use emergency heat.
HEATING CYCLE
With the thermostat in the heating position, and the outdoor temperature in the range of 20 to 30° or below, the outdoor unit will generally run 100% of the time.
All E*FH systems are equipped with bal­ance point control to provide even mor e efficient operation. This control will pre­vent the electric heater from being ener­gized when the outdoor air is above some predetermined temperature set­ting (0 to 45°F). At higher temperatures,
your system will provide all the heat your home will ever need. At lower tempera­tures, the supplemental electric heat will be energized to keep your home com­fortable.
When the outdoor air is cool and moist, frost may form on the surface of your outdoor coil. When this frost builds to a certain point, your system will switch to a defrost cycle. Although you may feel cooler air coming from your registers, DO NOT adjust your thermostat. The frost will melt quickly, and your system will return to normal operation automat­ically.
COOLING CYCLE
Switch your thermostat to cool. Select a comfortable thermostat temperature setting, typically between 75 and 80°. Comfort sensations vary with individu­als. The lower the indoor temperature desired, the greater will be the number of hours your unit must operate.
Set your thermostat 2 or 3 °F below nor ­mal several hours before entertaining large groups during hot weather. People give off considerable heat and moisture.
On an extremely hot day, the indoor temperature may rise 3 to 6°F above the thermostat setting. Properly selected equipment does not have the capacity to maintain a constant indoor tempera­ture during this peak load. Over-sizing your system to handle this peak load isn’t practical because the oversized system would operate much less effi­ciently at all other conditions.
SYSTEM OPERATION
Your thermostat puts full control of the comfort level in your home at your fin­gertips.
DO NOT switch your thermostat rapidly “On” and “Off” or between “Heat” to “Cool”. This could damage your equip­ment. Always allow at least 5 minutes between changes,
