Functioning & Principle of Operation
The Enviroheat system is a heat pump that collects heat from the ambient air and transfers it into the water in the storage vessel. This process utilizes a refrigerant, compressor, and heat exchanger to efficiently heat water.
The cycle involves the refrigerant absorbing heat from the air, being compressed, condensing to release heat to the water, and then passing through an expansion valve to reduce pressure, repeating the cycle.
How it Works: Imagine a refrigerator working in reverse. While a refrigerator removes heat from an enclosed box and expels it to the surrounding air, a heat pump takes heat from the surrounding air and transfers it to water in an enclosed tank. Heat pump technology makes efficient use of heat in the surrounding air, even at temperatures as low as -7°C. The Enviroheat system can convert 1kW of electricity into over 4kW of heat.

Maintenance
The heat pump water heater requires minimal regular system maintenance. Personally inspecting or servicing any part of the system is not recommended. Shut down the machine and cut off the power before any work commences. Maintenance operations are important to guarantee optimum performance and extend the life of the appliance.
Draining and flushing the system
CAUTION: The system must be completely drained of water before any plumbing work is commenced. This will prevent damage to the storage tank in the event of a vacuum or excessive pressure forming at the storage tank.
The heat pump hot water system should be drained and flushed every five years during a major service of the unit.
- Turn off and isolate the power supply to the electrical element.
- Turn off the water supply to the water heater.
- Release excess pressure from the tank by manually opening the pressure & temperature relief valve.
- Disconnect the cold water supply pipe connection to the tank.
- Fit a 1½" flexible drain pipe to the cold connection at the tank. Place the open end of the drain hose in a location where it is safe for the hot water to drain away from the tank.
- Manually open the pressure & temperature relief valve, which will allow air into the tank, and the water within the tank will flow out via the flexible drain pipe fitted to the cold inlet connection. Hold the valve open until the tank is empty.
Relief valves
The lever on the relief valves should be operated at least every six months. Failure to do so may result in failure of the tank. If water does not discharge freely, the valves should be checked and possibly replaced. The relief valves and relief valve drain lines must not be blocked. Some water may discharge during each heating cycle.
Every five years, all safety valves should be replaced. In locations where the potable water has a Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) of greater than 600ppm, it is recommended to replace all safety valves every three years.
Condensate discharge pipe
Check the pipe regularly for cleanliness. Obstructions may cause poor condensate flow or water accumulation in the heat pump plastic base.
Anode replacement
The high-quality vitreous enamel lined, low carbon steel tank has three sacrificial anodes for long tank life. These anodes should be inspected every few years and replaced when worn out. It is recommended that the anodes be changed every five years.
Water quality
Water supply from an unfiltered source that may be highly conductive or have a high mineral content may void the system warranty. The following characteristics should not be exceeded for the warranty to remain valid:
Water Properties | Acceptable Levels |
---|---|
Total hardness | 200 mg/litre or ppm |
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) | 600 mg/litre or ppm (250 mg/litre or ppm) |
Chloride | 10 mg/litre or ppm (150 mg/litre or ppm) |
Magnesium | Min 6.5 to Max 8.5 |
Sodium | 850 µS/cm |
pH | Min 6.5 to Max 8.5 |
Electrical conductivity | 850 µS/cm |
WARNING: A breach of this condition may void the warranty in the event of damage caused by water quality exceeding these characteristics.
Troubleshooting
Hot water use higher than anticipated
Often, the hot water usage of showers, washing machines, and dishwashers is underestimated. Review these appliances to determine if daily usage exceeds the water heater's storage volume (200L or 330L). If demand exceeds stored volume, water temperature may be slightly lower than normal. Inspect hot water tap washers for leakage and replace if necessary.
Water discharge through the pressure relief valve
All heat pump water heaters have two pressure valves. The cold water expansion control valve (ECV) may release a small amount of water during the heating cycle due to water expansion. Typically, discharge is less than 10 litres per day. The pressure & temperature valve may also release a small expansion discharge.
It is normal for the ECV to drip water when heating. If discharge exceeds 10 litres per day, it may indicate a valve problem or increased water supply pressure. Contact an authorized Enviroheat dealer or service provider.
