NEW TECHNOLOGY
With many people spending much of their time
indoors at home or work, it is not surprising that
buildings account for a large percentage of all
energy use. This means that there is great scope for
reducing energy use through better-designed
buildings and more efficient heating, cooling and
hot-water systems.

outdoor installation.
Wall mounted Ceiling Suspended
For water pipes, do NOT use steel pipes. Copper pipes are
recommended.
Drain pipe
Install the drain pipe with an inclination of between 1/100 and 1/200 to provide a downward
flow of drain water.For cold climate installation, take an appropriate measures (e.g., drain
heater) to prevent the drain water from freezing.

Strainer
Install a strainer near the PWFY unit to keep foreign materials from entering the water-side
heat exchanger.

Do not touch the unit, the unit surface can be hot.

Back up system is recommended in case of PWFY unit breakdown.

Q&A Booster unit/ HEX unit Installation and service Q&A Booster unit/ HEX unit Installation and service

Q1 Are there any regulations to installation location? Q8 Is the hot water suitable for drinking?
The HEX unit/Booster unit can only be installed indoors. No, we do not recommend hot water for drinking.
The hot water is circulating and not supplied for drinking purposes.

Q2 Is it possible to operate a multiple number of units at the

same time? Q9 What are the considerations when setting address?
Controller: Possible with MA wiring. Do not group Booster unit and HEX unit together.
Output: Possible with setting sequence relay on site.

Q1 What applications are suitable?

It is best for facilities that require a large amount of hot water such as, healthcare
facilities, hotels, hospitals, sports facilities (gyms, golf courses) and restaurants.

Q2 How many people can the unit provide hot water for?
Hotels, healthcare facilities, and hospitals: 10-20 people/unit.
* It varies depending on the purposes. Refer to “2-3 Selecting a model” section for
calculation.

Q3 Can it be used for air conditioning and space heating?

Yes, it can be used for both applications.

Q4 Why is the running cost low?

Because of the high efficient heat pump and heat recovery technology.

Q5 What is the difference between ATW Booster unit & HEX unit
and electric heaters.
Booster unit and HEX unit COP is 3.0 or more and therefore the running cost is 1/3
compared to electric heaters.
