How do I winterize my heat pump?

  • Place the bypass in the position where there is no more flow to the heat pump
  • Disconnect the hydraulic lines from the heat pump and let all water out of the pump and pipes. This will prevent a cracked heat exchanger in freezing weather.
  • Screw the glands back onto the heat pump, but make sure the pipes are loose so that, should water get into the pipes, it can leak out. Screwing back the glands also prevents pests, such as mice, from entering the heat pump.
  • We also recommend not de-energizing the heat pump. Leave it connected to the network, as this will protect the electronics from moisture deposits and condensation.
  • Place the supplied cover over the heat pump.
