Top 5 heat pump installation tips for long-term peaceful operation
|
|
|
|
|
|
Quiet Mark in partnership with Heat Geek, delivering low-carbon, low-noise heating, have distilled the technical complexities of installing heat pumps into a vital check-list for long-term quiet performance:
|
|
|
|
|
Lay a suitable foundation for installation. Fit the heat pump onto suitable anti-vibration feet or mounting blocks, ensure the heat pump is set up, commissioned and maintained correctly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Minimise the impact of noise at the design stage. Address factors such as the installation site, clearance surrounding the unit, and any materials or structures which may cause noise to be reflected.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Thoroughly discuss the final position with your installer. Most people prefer their heat pump located as discreetly as possible, away from opening windows and doors or entertainment spaces within the garden.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Choose a low-noise model to make installation easier. Quiet Mark Certified heat pumps, due to their low-level noise operation will not require additional acoustic insulation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Annual maintenance maintains low noise levels. As with all home heating appliances it is recommended that they are serviced annually by a competent engineer.
