Provozní režimy
- Režim ohřevu: The system extracts heat from the outdoor air and transfers it indoors. When outdoor temperatures are very low, the auxiliary heat strip will engage to supplement heating.
- Režim chlazení: The system extracts heat from the indoor air and releases it outdoors, providing cooling.
- Režim ventilátoru: Cirkuluje vzduch bez ohřevu nebo chlazení.
- Automatický režim: Automaticky přepíná mezi vytápěním a chlazením pro udržení nastavené teploty.
Nastavení termostatu
- Nastavte požadovanou teplotu.
- Choose the appropriate mode (Heat, Cool, Fan, Auto).
- Consider using programmable features to optimize energy efficiency.
Údržba
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance, efficiency, and longevity of your heat pump system. Some tasks can be performed by the homeowner, while others require a qualified technician.
Údržba uživatelů (měsíčně/čtvrtletně)
- Výměna vzduchového filtru: Check and replace or clean the air filter monthly, or more frequently if the system is in constant use or if there are pets in the home. A dirty filter restricts airflow and reduces efficiency.
- Čištění venkovní jednotky: Keep the area around the outdoor condenser unit clear of debris, leaves, and vegetation. Gently rinse the outdoor coil with a garden hose to remove dirt buildup.
- Odvod kondenzátu: Periodically check the condensate drain line for clogs. Clear any blockages to prevent water overflow.
Profesionální údržba (ročně)
Schedule an annual inspection and tune-up by a qualified HVAC technician. This typically includes:
- Kontrola hladiny a tlaku chladiva.
- Kontrola elektrických spojů a součástí.
- Cleaning evaporator and condenser coils.
- Lubricating moving parts.
- Kontrola kalibrace termostatu.
- Inspecting ductwork for leaks.
