SWIMMING POOL HEAT PUMP
Manual
1. Introduction
The pool heat pump is a self-contained unit designed specifically for pool heating.
Each component has been selected with care to achieve a high-quality product in an
effort to exceed all industry standards.
All pool heat pumps have an electronic board with service analyzer, a titanium heat
exchanger tube warranted for 10 years against corrosion and PVC plastic cabinet that
eliminates all maintenance for life. All components are of superior quality, which
presents you with an effective heat pump.
Compared to other types of pool heaters, such as gas or oil-fired, the pool heat pump
has a lower heating capacity on a BTU/h basis. Therefore, it needs to operate for a
longer time to accomplish the desired results. Occasionally, it may be necessary to
run the heat pump for up to 24 hours per day. However, this should not be of
concern to the owner because the heater is designed to operate continuously.
What’s more, despite continuous operation, it will still heat the pool far more
economically than other types of heaters.
As with all pool heaters, you are advised to use a pool cover at night and when the
pool is not in use. The pool cover should be used if night temperatures are 15°F less
than desired pool temperature. This will keep evaporation, the greatest source of
heat loss, to a minimum, thus greatly reducing the overall pool heating costs. During
warmer weather, the pool cover may not be required.

4. Installation Instructions
4.1 Location
The placement of the pool heater is very important in keeping installation costs to a
minimum while providing for maximum efficiency of operation, as well as allowing
adequate access for service and maintenance.
The pool heat pump is designed for outdoor installation and should not be installed
in a fully enclosed area, such as a shed, garage, etc. Recirculation of cold discharged
air back into the evaporator coil will greatly reduce unit heating capacity and
efficiency.
The unit should be located as close as practical to the existing pool pump and filter to
minimize water piping. However, do not forget to provide a clearance(Table 6) at the
very least all around your heat pump. The use of 90 degree bends and short radius
elbows in the water piping should be kept to a minimum.
Mount the unit on a sturdy base, preferably a concrete slab or a set of blocks. The
base should be completely isolated from the building foundation wall to prevent the
possibility of sound or vibration transmission into the building. The size of the base
should not be less than the size of the heat pump.
² Important
² Air is pulled through the evaporator coil and discharged through the top grille.
A minimum clearance of 60 inches should be allowed above the unit for
unrestricted air discharge. The unit must not be installed under a porch. Any
side of the unit should be located at least 24 inches from a wall or from any
other obstruction for unrestricted air intake and service access.

4.2 Water Piping
² Single Unit Installation
Figure 6 illustrates the standard plumbing layout with a single heat pump unit.
Following the diagram from right to left, the plumbing sequence is as follows: Pool >
Pool Pump > Filter > Heat Pump > Check Valve > Chemical Feeder > Pool. Note For
normal installations, do not install a shutoff valve or any kind of variable restriction in
the water piping between the heat pump outlet and the pool/spa.
Filtered water is plumbed to the inlet, located on the right side of the heat pump
front panel. Heated water flows through the outlet, located on the left side of the
heat pump front. Two inch unions are provided.
Automated chlorine distribution systems, if used, must be placed downstream of
the heater to minimize harm to the pool equipment. Use rigid PVC piping if possible.
All joints should be glued with PVC glue. When the piping installation is complete,
operate the pool pump and check the system for leaks. Then, check the filter
pressure gauge to verify that there isn’t any indication of excessive pump head
pressure. You can also make the connections using high-pressure flexible hose, but
make sure the hose can withstand high pressure. The installation of a heat pump
bypass is not necessary unless the water flow exceeds 75 GPM.
² Multiple Unit Installation
Heat Pump and Heater Combination
In certain regions of the country it may be more economical to run a heat pump
during the warmer months and a gas heater during the cooler months. In some
situations it may be desirable to run the heat pump in the “Chiller” mode during
the hottest portion of the year and a heater during the cooler months. The heat
pump may be plumbed with a gas or electric heater or any combination of heat
sources including solar. All heat sources must be plumbed in series to work correctly
and efficiently.
Figure 7 illustrates a recommended plumbing layout for a heat pump / heater /
solar combination heating system for a pool / spa combination. Your system may not
contain all of these components, but the basic plumbing will apply by eliminating the
component in the illustration that is not a part of your system.
Multiple Heat Pump Connections
All plumbing on multiple heat pump installations must be done in parallel (see
Figures 8 and 9). An equal flow of water to each heat pump is important for optimum
operation.
Note: It may be necessary to adjust water pressure switch if a unit is installed
below the water level. See Section 5.6 for details on when and how to adjust the
pressure switch. Each heat pump allows a maximum flow rate of 70 gpm (265 lpm)
and requires a minimum of 20 gpm (76 lpm).

5. Electrical Connections
5.1 Electrical
The wiring of your pool heat pump should be performed by a qualified electrician
in accordance with local requirements. A properly-sized breaker and copper wire
must be used. Check the heat pump data label for required maximum breaker size
² Important
The unit must always be powered off before opening the access panel.
5.2 Bonding
Because all metals have different electrical potentials, all metal and electrical
components of the pool system must be bonded together. This includes the metal
framework of the pool, the light, the pump, the filter (if made out of metal), the
heater, any automatic chlorine generator, and any other metal or electrical
equipment. On some older pools, this substructure bond wire may not exist. In these
cases, a 6 to 8 foot solid copper rod must be driven into the ground near the
equipment. All electric and metal components must then be bonded to each other,
and then to the copper rod.
² Important
² Check valve must be installed between the heater and any automatic chlorine
distribution system (if used);
² Any kind of automatic chlorine distribution system must be installed after or
downstream of the heat pump;
² The filter must be placed before or upstream from the heat pump;
² A bypass and shut-off should be installed on all systems for ease of service,
maintenance and to balance the water flow. Bypasses must be installed on any
system with over a 3/4 HP pool pump.
The installation of the pool heater should be performed by a certified electrician. To
connect the electricity, you must unscrew the two screws under the front panel, then
slide the electric cable through the knock out located on the left or the right side of
the base, and then insert it in the control box.

There is water around the unit
While your pool heater is in the
heating mode, a large quantity of
warm and humid air passes over the
evaporator and causes condensation.
It is normal to see condensation
dripping under the heater.
To check if the water really is a leak,
you must stop the heater and leave
the pool pump running for over 5
hours. If water is still coming out of
your heater after this period, then
call your dealer for service.
The heater is running but desired water temperature cannot be
reached.
Heat loss is too much for heater; cover your pool as often as you can.

10. Initial Startup
² Before starting the pool heater for the first time, it is important to verify that the
breaker is in the ON position.
² Also make sure that the water circulates freely and that the pool pump is
activated.
² Then, you will need to set the water temperature you desire. The fan will
immediately start. The compressor will start after a 3 to 4-minute delay.
² When the compressor is running, the "heating" indicator located on the right
(see “Service Analyzer Control,” p. 13) should be lit. At initial startup, it is
normal for the unit to run 24 hours a day.
² It is also normal to see water dripping from the holes at the base of the unit. This
is just condensation.
29
SWIMMING POOL HEAT PUMP
Manual
11. Requesting Assistance or Service
² All service will be handled by the dealer that you bought the unit from. Do not
return the heater to your dealer, give them a call and they will schedule a service
call.
² Before calling for assistance or service, please check the “Troubleshooting” (pp.
16-17) and “Warranty” (pp. 21) sections or call your dealer. It may save you the
cost of a service call. If you still need help, follow the instructions below.
² When asking for help, please provide a detailed description of the problem, your
heater’s complete model and serial number, and the purchase date (see p.23).
This information will help us respond properly to your request.
² Keep a copy of the sales receipt showing the date of purchase. Proof of purchase
will assure you warranty service.
12.Maintenance
² Dirt can accumulate on the evaporator. You can easily remove it by using a
non-pressured water spray without damaging the small aluminum fins.
² The cleaning of the plastic cabinet can be done with the help of a brush and
soap.
13.Winterizing
² First, you must turn the breaker off. The unit must be drained of all its water. You
will need to disconnect the IN and OUT water connections. Then the unit must
be tilted or blown out with air until all water is out.
² The next step is to reconnect your IN and OUT water connections that will have
previously been drained.
² It is recommended to cover the heat pump to prevent snow from getting inside,
so a protective winter cover is also needed.
