●● When the outdoor air temperature exceeds the cooling threshold, then the cooling mode is started.
●● When the outdoor air temperature is below the heating threshold, then the heating mode is started.
●● When the outdoor air temperature is between the abovementioned changeover setpoints, then the unit is neither cooling
nor heating. It is in Standby mode which means that compressors are stopped and the water pump may be running with
no mechanical cooling or heating. However, it is possible to have the pump stopped in Standby mode if the [pump_sby]

10 - MAINTENANCE
In order to ensure the optimal operation of the equipment as well as the optimization of all the available functionalities, it is
recommended to activate a Maintenance Contract with your local Manufacturer Service Agency.
The contract will ensure your equipment is regularly inspected by specialists so that any malfunction is detected and corrected
quickly and no serious damage can occur to your equipment.
The Manufacturer provides a wide range of service contracts which embrace the assistance of highly qualified HVAC engineering
professionals ready to help if needed.The Maintenance contracts represent not only the best way to ensure the maximum operating
life of your equipment, but also, through the expertise of qualified personnel, the optimal tool to manage your system in a cost-
effective manner.
To find the best type of contract that will meet all of your expectations, please contact your local Manufacturer representatives.
