Heat Pump Water Heater - SANCO2

 WARNING: Installation instructions in this manual are not meant to encompass 100% of SANCO2 installation guidelines and requirements. Refer to the manufacturer for complete instructions.

Location

The SANCO2 heat pump should:

  • Be located no further than 66ft (20m) from the tank, and no more than 27ft (7m) above it. Additionally, minimizing pipe length to the tank/pod maximizes efficiency
  • Maximum 6 bends, use long-radius elbows, not "street Ls"
  • Be installed outside, with adequate ventilation (see Required Unit Clearances)
  • Be installed in such a way where water can drain without damaging the heat pump

 The SANCO2 heat pump operates most efficiently when located on the East or South side of the property.

The heat pump can be installed either on:

  • Preferably a pad or other firm base, or
  • Wall-mounted brackets.

 WARNING: While the SANCO2 is rated max 37dB, noise due to unit vibration may be a nuisance when wall-mounted.

 WARNING: If ground-mounted, mount it on risers or pump-ups, to enable access to the drain valve under the unit.
