Introduction

This manual contains information relating to the installation, troubleshooting, operation, and maintenance of this EvoHeat unit. Instructions in this manual must always be followed. Failure to comply with these recommendations will invalidate the warranty. Should you have any questions or require technical support, call the EvoHeat office on 1300 859 933 to speak to our team.

The Solace Pro series dehumidifier is designed to remove the moisture from the air in the room without losing the warmth contained within. The Solace Pro has the ability to remove up to 104 litres of moisture from an indoor pool room a day.

Dimensions

Working Principle
The Solace Dehumidifier works by drawing moist air over a refrigerated coil with a small fan. The cold coil of the refrigeration device condenses the water, which is removed. Then the air is reheated by the hot coil. This process works most effectively with higher ambient temperatures with a high dew point temperature.
For best results we recommend that the room temperature is maintained within 5 degrees of the pool temperature.

Hygrostat Control
The dehumidifier is controlled by a built-in hygrostat set on one side of the unit. The target RH value can be set in ranges from 30% to 90%.
The unit will not start to dehumidify until the actual RH is beyond the setting value. We recommend that an external hygrostat should be installed to ensure a constant measure of the humidity in the pool area. The location of the hygrostat is as following:

Safety Instructions

Installation, repair, or relocations must only be done by a fully qualified technician. If done incorrectly there is a number of hazards that can occur including fire, electric shock, water leakage and injury.
Always use a suitably qualified Electrician to perform any electrical work, they must read the manual before connecting. Ensure all cabling, circuit breakers, and protections are of a suitable size and specification in accordance with electrical wiring legislation for the heater being installed. Ensure to check that there is adequate voltage and current available at the heater connection to run the unit.

• Installation, repair or relocations must be done by a fully qualified technician. If done incorrectly it may cause fire, electric shock, water leakage and other hazards.
• Maintenance and operation must be carried out according to the recommended time and frequencies, as stated in this manual.
• To avoid risk of electrical shock, the unit must have a good power connection and earthing.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced.
• Use genuine standard spare parts only.
• When an abnormality (smell of burning, etc.) occurs, stop the unit and disconnect the power or turn off the breaker. If the unit continues to be operated in an abnormal condition, it may cause a fire or hazards.
• For unit cleaning or maintenance, switch off and disconnect the power of the unit.
• Do not install the unit near flammable gas or spray flammable substances near it.
• Ensure the unit is installed on a strong and stable platform.
• A circuit breaker must be installed for the unit.
• Use a suitable fuse. Copper or iron will cause a failure or possibly a fire.
• Do not operate the unit with wet hands.
• Do not perform any modifications of safety or adjustment devices without authorisation.
• Even if the unit is disconnected from the mains supply, do not pull, cut or knot the electrical cables coming out of the unit.
• Do not poke objects through the inlet and outlet grills.
• Do not climb onto the appliance or rest any object on it.
• External parts of the unit can reach temperatures of more than 70°C, never touch it with your hands!
• The unit must be installed in accordance with national wiring regulations.
  *Caution: Single wall heat exchanger, not suitable for potable water connection.

Installation

Location of Installation
Avoid installing the unit in close proximity to:

• Positions subject to exposure to direct sunlight
• Sources of heat
• Oil Fumes
• Areas subject to high frequencies

Ensure that:

• The wall on which the unit is installed is strong enough to support the weight of the unit
• The part of the wall that the unit is installed does not have pipes or electrical wires passing through
• The wall is perfectly flat
• There are no obstacles around the unit that could interfere with the inlet and outlet air flow.
• It is preferable there is an outside perimeter-wall to allow the discharge of condensation outside.

Airflow Clearances
If hanging the unit on the wall, you are able to remove the rubber feet on the base of the unit.
The minimum mounting distances between the Solace Pro and other objects on the wall are:

• 20cm from each end
• 50cm from above & below
• 20cm from below

Drainage
Select a suitably sized hose to connect to the built-in hose of the unit if required.

NOTE: If the condensation water discharges directly into a container, the condensate outlet should be located above the container to avoid it immersing in the container.

Wall Mounted Installation
Insert 5 Expansion Bolts into holes which are bored by a 10mm drill, then, fix the wall suspension bar horizontally

Operation

The Controller

Functions

Power On/Off
To turn the unit on & off, press the POWER button.
When the unit is on, the display will show the current ambient relative humidity, and lights will be on for both the unit and control panel.

Set Relative Humidity
To change the desired humidity level:

The keyboard can be locked to prevent unauthorised changes to settings.

• Hold the POWER button for 5 seconds to either lock or unlock the controller.
  • No changes can be made to settings while the unit is locked.

Fault Interface
This function displays fault codes for troubleshooting, see the troubleshooting section of this manual for definitions.

• When a fault occurs, press the UP or DOWN buttons to view the fault/s
• To exit checking faults, press the POWER button.

Troubleshooting

Check the below solutions to failure P1/P2/P3

High pressure protection| P2| Discharge pressure is too high
Condenser outlet temp. over high| P3| Condenser coil temp. is too high
Evaporator outlet temp. sensor failure| P5| Temp. sensor broken or in open/short circuit| Check or replace temp. sensor
Evaporator inlet temp. sensor failure| P6| Temp. sensor broken or in open/short circuit| Check or replace temp. sensor
Condenser outlet temp. sensor failure| P7| Temp. sensor broken or in open/short circuit| Check or replace temp. sensor
Humidity sensor failure| P8| Humidity sensor broken or in open/short circuit| Check or replace humidity sensor
Motor feedback signal failure| E0| Feedback wiring has bad connection or fan motor is damaged| Check feedback wiring of the fan motor or replace it
Return air temp. sensor failure| P9| Temp. sensor broken or in open/short circuit| Check or replace temp. sensor

To resolve a P1, P2 and/or P3 error:

1. If other failure codes appear with P1, P2 or P3, resolve them first.
2. If there are no other failures of P3~E0, and P1 & P2 still exist, disconnect the power to the unit and try connecting again after 1 hour.
3. If only the P3 error exists, keep the fan running for 30 mins. If P3 still appears after running the fan, disconnect the power to the unit and try reconnecting it again after an hour.
