3 Transport, unpacking and positioning
3.1
Transporting heat pump
Caution! The heat pump must always be transported and stored standing and in a dry environment. If the
heat pump is laid on the incorrect side it may become seriously damaged as the oil in the compressor can
run out in the pressure pipe and therefore prevent normal function.
Caution! Always secure the heat pump so that it cannot tip over during transportation.
