Prohibition On Alterations; Equipment And Functional Description; Functional Principle - Vaillant geoTHERM VWS Serie Instrucciones De Uso

If an external passive cooling system is installed in your
system:
a Caution!
Danger of falling below the dew point and
condensate formation!
The heating flow temperature setting
must not be too low in cooling mode. The
cooling function is still effective with a
flow temperature of 20 °C.
a Caution!
The cooling function is impaired if the
thermostatic radiator valves are closed!
The thermostatic radiator valves must
be switched to the "open" position in
cooling mode to ensure that the cooled
heating water circulates smoothly
through the underfloor circuit.

Prohibition on alterations

d Danger!
Inappropriate alterations can cause
injuries!
Under no circumstances should you
attempt to make changes or alterations
to the heat pump or other parts of the
heating and hot water system yourself.
The prohibition applies to:
— the heat pump,
— the vicinity of the heat pump,
— the supply lines for water and power.
For alterations to the heat pump or its peripherals, you
must call on a qualified engineer.
• Do not damage or remove seals or locking devices on
components. Only suitably qualified heating engineer
or our customer service may remove sealed compo-
nents.

3.1
Heat pump systems consist of separate circuits in which
liquids or gases transport the heat from the heat source
to the heating system. As these circuits operate with
differing media (brine/water, coolant and heating
water), they are coupled to one another by means of
heat exchangers. In these heat exchangers the heat
passes from a medium at a high temperature to a
medium at a lower temperature.
The Vaillant geoTHERM heat pump uses geothermal
energy or ground water as its heat source.

The system consists of separate circuits which are cou-
pled to one another by means of heat exchangers.
These circuits are:
- The heat source circuit, by means of which the energy
- The coolant circuit, which releases its heat to the
