DANGER!
ecoGEO heat pumps are designed to function within heating systems, cooling systems, for the production of domestic hot water
(DHW), pool heating or other similar uses. The manufacturer is not responsible for any material damage and/or personal injury
resulting from improper use or incorrect installation of the equipment.
The heat pump must be installed by a licensed installer in accordance with applicable local regulations and in accordance with the
installation instructions described in this manual.
1.1. Safety considerations
The detailed instructions in this section cover important aspects for your safety; as such they must be strictly complied with.
All the installation and maintenance work described in this manual must be performed by an
authorised engineer.
DANGER!
Improper installation or use of the equipment could cause electrocution, short circuits, leakage of
working fluids, fire or other personal injury and/or material damage.
If you are unsure of the procedures for installation, maintenance or use of the equipment, contact
your local dealer or technical support for advice.
If you detect a malfunction in the unit, contact your local dealer or technical support to answer any
questions.
When carrying out installation, maintenance or commissioning of the heat pump, always use
appropriate personal protective equipment.
Keep the plastic bags included in the packaging out of the reach of children, as they could result in
injury through asphyxia.
Refrigerant
The heat pump uses R410A refrigerant as operating fluid. This refrigerant is not harmful to the environment as it does not contain
chlorine, and therefore does not contribute to the destruction of the ozone layer. Under normal operation of the heat pump the
toxicity of the refrigerant is nil and there is no risk of explosion. However, the following precautions should be taken in the event of
refrigerant leakage.
