Maintenance and
Cleaning
9.1 Maintenance
To prevent faults due to sediment in the heat exchangers, care
must be taken to ensure that no impurities can enter either the
heat source system or the heating system. In the event that op-
erating malfunctions due to contamination occur nevertheless,
the system should be cleaned as described below.
9.2 Cleaning the Heating System
The ingress of oxygen into the heating water circuit may result in
the formation of oxidation products (rust), particularly if steel
components are used. These products enter the heating system
via the valves, the circulating pumps and/or plastic pipes. It is
therefore essential - in particular with respect to the piping of un-
derfloor heating systems - that only diffusion-proof materials are
used.
ATTENTION!
We recommend the installation of a suitable corrosion protection system
to prevent the formation of deposits (e.g. rust) in the condenser of the
heat pump.
Residue from lubricants and sealants may also contaminate the
heating water.
In the case of severe contamination leading to a reduction in the
performance of the liquifier in the heat pump, the system must be
cleaned by a heating technician.
Based on current information, we recommend using a 5 % phos-
phoric acid solution for cleaning purposes. However, if cleaning
needs to be performed more frequently, a 5 % formic acid solu-
tion should be used.
In either case, the cleaning fluid should be at room temperature.
We recommend flushing the heat exchanger in the direction op-
posite to the normal flow direction.
To prevent acidic cleaning agents from entering the heating sys-
tem circuit, we recommend connecting the flushing device di-
rectly to the flow and return flow of the liquifier. It is important that
the system be thoroughly flushed using appropriate neutralising
agents to prevent any damage from being caused by cleaning
agent residue remaining in the system.
Acids must be used with great care and all relevant regulations of
the employers' liability insurance associations must be adhered
to.
The manufacturer's instructions regarding cleaning agent must
be complied with at all times.
9.3 Cleaning the Heat Source
System
ATTENTION!
The supplied dirt trap must be inserted in the heat source inlet of the heat
pump to protect the evaporator against the ingress of impurities.
The filter sieve of the dirt trap should be cleaned one day after-
start-up. Further checks must be set according to the level of
dirt.If no more signs of contamination are evident, the filter can
be removed to reduce pressure drops..

10 Faults / Trouble-
Shooting
This heat pump is a quality product and is designed for trouble-
free operation. In the event that a fault should occur, it will be in-
dicated on the heat pump manager display. Simply consult the
Faults and Trouble-shooting page in the operating instructions of
the heat pump manager.
If you cannot correct the fault yourself, please contact your after-
sales service technician.
ATTENTION!
Any work on the heat pump may only be performed by authorised and
qualified after-sales service technicians.
ATTENTION!
Disconnect all electrical circuits from the power source prior to opening
the device.
11 Decommissioning/
Disposal
Before removing the heat pump, disconnect it from the power
source and close all valves. The heat pump must be installed by
trained personnel. Observe all environmentally-relevant require-
ments regarding the recovery, recycling and disposal of materi-
als and components in accordance with all applicable standards.
Particular attention should be paid to the proper disposal of re-
frigerants and refrigeration oils.
