ELECTRIC POOL HEATER

STATIONARY MOUNTING OPTION

Some countries, especially in the European community, require the electric pool heater to be secured to the ground or to a base in a permanent upright position. Check your local authorities to determine if there is a regulation in your area regarding above-the-ground swimming pool electric pool heaters. If yes, then the electric pool heater can be mounted to a platform using the two holes located in the base. See drawing below.

The electric pool heater can be mounted on a cement base or onto a wooden platform to prevent accidental falling over. Total assembly must exceed 18kg. The European norm EN 60335-2-41 requires this product be secured to the ground or to a base.

FIG 7 STATIONARY MOUNTING OPTION

  1. The mounting holes are 6.4 mm in diameter and spaced 156 mm apart.
  2. Use two bolts and lock nuts with a maximum of 6.4 mm in diameter.

POOL CARE AND CHEMICALS

  • All pools require care to keep the water clear and hygienically clean. With proper chemical control, your filter will help attain this objective. Consult your pool supply dealer for instructions regarding the proper use of chlorine, algaecide and other chemical agents required for sparkling clear water.
  • Keep pool chemicals away from children.
  • Do not replenish chemicals in pool while pool is occupied. Skin or eye irritations could occur.
  • Daily pH checking and chemical treatment of the water is very important and can not be overemphasized. Chlorine, algaecide and maintenance of proper pH levels are required when filling the pool as well as during the season. Consult your local swimming pool supply store for instructions.
  • The season’s first filling of the pool may have brackish water requiring extra water additives and extra filter changes. Do not allow swimming in pool until the pH level is balanced. Consult your local swimming pool supply store for instructions.
  • Keep spare filter cartridges on hand. Replace cartridges every two weeks.
  • Chlorinated water may damage lawns, gardens or shrubbery as children play in the pool and splash water outside the pool. Lawn areas underneath the pool liner will be destroyed. Note that some types of grass may grow through the liner but function is not affected.
