For indoor installations, a means of condensate
disposal must be provided. The drain hole in the base of
the heat pump is fi tted with a 19 mm diameter barbed
adapter. Connect a length of 19 mm tubing to the
adapter and route it to dispose of the condensate into
a drain or outside of the building. It is important to
remember that no part of the tubing or hose may be
above the level of the drain hole in the base of the
heat pump.

Outdoor Installations

When pool equipment is located below the pool
surface, a leak from any component can cause
large scale water loss or fl ooding. Air Energy™
cannot be responsible for such water loss or
fl ooding or resulting damage.
Condensation will occur from the evaporator
coil while the unit is running, and drain at a steady
rate, usually 11 to 19 liters per hour, depending upon
ambient air temperature and humidity. The more humid
the ambient conditions, the more condensation will be
produced. The bottom of the unit acts as a tray to catch
rainwater and condensation. Keep the drain hole, located
on the right side of the base of the unit, clear of debris.
The drain hole in the base of the heat pump is fi tted with
a 19 mm diameter barbed adapter. If desired, you may
connect a length of 19 mm tubing to the adapter and
route it off the patio or equipment pad to dispose of the
condensate.

2.2.5.1 Lawn Sprinklers

Keep lawn sprinkler heads from spraying on the
heat pump to prevent corrosion and damage. Use a
deflector if needed.

2.2.5.2 Roof Run-off

Make sure the heat pump is not located where
large amounts of water may run off from a roof into
the unit. Sharp sloping roofs without gutters will allow
massive amounts of rain water, mixed with debris from
the roof, to be forced through the unit. A gutter or down
spout may be needed to protect the heat pump.

Plumbing Layout

Figure 3 illustrates the standard plumbing layout
with a single heat pump unit. Following the diagram
from right to left, the plumbing sequence is as follows:
Pool > Pool Pump > Filter > Heat Pump > Check
Valve > Chemical Loop > Chlorinator > Pool
NOTE For normal installations, do not install a shutoff
valve or any kind of variable restriction in the
water piping between the heat pump outlet and
the pool/spa.
The heat pump must be protected from back-
siphoning of water. If there is any chance of back-
siphoning, provide a check valve between the pool
and the filter pump inlet. Arrangement of pool system
components other than as illustrated in the preceding and
following diagrams can affect the operation of the heat
