INSTALLATION GUIDE AND USER MANUAL
THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING A NEPTUNE FULL INVERTER HEAT PUMP. Please read the
manual thoroughly before installing or using the product.
Only qualified technicians must install the product. Keep this manual for
future reference.
SECTION 1:
IMPORTANT WARNINGS AND SAFETY INFORMATION
This manual contains important information about the installation, operation,
and safe use of this product. This information should be given to the owner
and/or operator of the heat pump. When installing and using the heat pump,
basic safety precautions should always be followed. Failure to follow safety
warnings and instructions in this manual can result in serious injury and/or
damage to your equipment. Read and follow all warning notices and instructions
which are included in this manual.
This Full Inverter Heat Pump contains R32 refrigerant gas which is a flammable
substance under certain conditions.
GENERAL WARNINGS
· Read the instructions before installing and using the heat pump. · Failure
to follow these instructions and comply with all applicable codes may cause
serious bodily injury
and/or property damage and will void the warranty. · Installers/operators must
follow manufacturer’s instructions and keep in compliance with national or
local
standards for installation. Under no circumstances will the manufacturer be
held responsible for any outcome incurred by failure to comply with applicable
standards or local regulations. · Turn off the power during thunderstorms and
severe weather. · Do not use or store combustible gas or liquid such as
thinners, paint or fuel near the heat pump. · Always keep the heat pump in the
upright position especially when storing or moving the heat pump. · The heat
pump is designed for heating swimming pools; do not use it for any other
purpose. · The surroundings of the heat pump must be kept clear to avoid
restricting ventilation. · The heat pump must be kept away from any source of
fire. · Do not put anything into the inlet or outlet, and do not remove the
fan cover. · This product contains electrical equipment. Dispose of the
product in accordance with local regulations.
INSTALLATION, SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE WARNINGS
· Gas leakage tests must be done before and after installation. ·
Installation, removal and service of the heat pump must be handled by a
professional pool builder/service
agent. Repairs should be carried out in a well ventilated area. · The heat
pump must be positioned on a concrete base. · The frame must be secured using
M10 bolts. Frame/brackets must be of a suitable strength and anti-rust
treated. · Do not lift the heat pump using the water unions. · The heat pump
must be installed in a well ventilated, outside area. · Ensure power is
disconnected during installation or service. · Stop installation if there is
any gas leakage. The unit must be returned to the authorised dealer. · Vacuum
completely before welding. Field welding is not allowed. · Always comply with
the national and local electrical codes and standards. · Ensure electrical
cable size is adequate for heater requirements at the installation location. ·

5.2: POSITIONING AND LOCATION OF HEAT PUMP
The heat pump must be installed in accordance with the following diagrams.
Distances in the diagram are the minimum distance allowed. The heat pump must
be positioned on solid level ground (concrete slab) outdoors in a place with
good ventilation. Do not install the heat pump in an enclosed area. Ensure
there is sufficient access space for installation and maintenance.
5.3: INSTALLATION OF THE HEAT PUMP 1. Install the 4 rubber feet onto the heat
pump’s legs, using the supplied bolts.
2. Install the drain plug into the drain hose, then attach the drain plug to
the drain hole underneath the heat pump.
Visit www.neptuneheating.com.au for more information
Page 9 of 36
3. Run the drain hose downhill to a suitable location, for example a garden or nearby stormwater drain. When the heat pump is running, there will be condensation water discharged from the drain hose.
4. Ensure the heat pump is equipped with a circuit breaker and electrical isolator switch.
5. The heat pump requires a pool pump (supplied by the user). Refer to the Specifications Table in Section 4.2 for recommended pump water flow and maximum head information for the model being installed.
6. Install the unions as follows:
STEP 1
STEP 2
STEP 3
7. Connect the inlet downstream, after the pool pump and filter.
8. Connect the outlet upstream before chlorinator, acid injection or other chemical dosing systems.

disconnected.
SECTION 6:
INITIAL START-UP
Check all wirings carefully before turning on the heat pump.
6.1: PRE-STARTUP INSPECTION
1. Check installation of the entire heat pump and the pipe connections
according to the installation instructions in this manual.
2. Check the electrical wiring according to the electrical wiring diagram and
earthing connection in this manual.
3. Ensure that the main power is connected properly.
4. Ensure there are no obstacle/blockages in front of the air inlet and
outlet of the heat pump.
6.2: INITIAL STARTUP
1. Ensure the inlet, outlet and bypass water flow valves are fully open, then
turn the pool pump on.
2. Check there are no water leaks and verify adequate flow to and from the
pool.
3. As the heat pump is hardwired, turn on the isolation switch.
4. Press the Power symbol on the heat pump touchpad.
5. In order to protect the heat pump, the heat pump is equipped with a
Delayed Start function. When starting the heat pump, the pool water pump will
start to run for 3 minutes, then after another 30 seconds, the heat pump fan
motor and compressor will start to run.
6. Check for any abnormal noises from the heat pump.
7. Check the air that is coming out of the heat pump fan, this air
temperature should be 5oC-10oC cooler than the ambient air temperature.
8. Test the Flow Switch is working correctly. With the heat pump still
running, turn the pool water pump off. If the Flow Switch is working, the heat
pump should turn off automatically and the heat pump touchpad will display an
error code E3 (insufficient water flow protection).
9. It is time to adjust the bypass water flow valve and calibrate the flow
rate though the heat pump. Ensure all valves (inlet, outlet, bypass) are open.
Then fully close the bypass valve and turn the heat pump to the maximum
temperature.
10. Wait 3-4 minutes for the heat pump to run.
Page 16 of 36
Visit www.neptuneheating.com.au for more information
11. Check the difference in temperature between the inlet temperature and
outlet temperature displayed on the heat pump’s LCD screen.
12. Slowly open the water flow bypass valve to increase the temperature
differential between the inlet and outlet. Closing the bypass valve will
decrease the temperature differential.
13. Adjust the bypass valve until optimum differential of 2oC-3oC is
achieved. Wait two minutes between each adjustment.
14. The water flow bypass valve is set up correctly when the temperature
difference between the inlet and outlet is 2oC-3oC. Once this has been
achieved, lock the position of the bypass valve if possible.
15. The initial startup is complete. Choose your desired speed and
temperature settings, and allow the heat pump to run 24 hours per day until
the desired pool temperature is reached. This can take several days.
SECTION 7:
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
7.1: IMPORTANT OPERATING INFORMATION
· For the heat pump’s ideal operating performance, the ideal ambient air
temperature is 15oC-25oC. · In case of power failure during the operation of

severe weather. · Do not use or store combustible gas or liquid such as
thinners, paint or fuel near the heat pump. · Always keep the heat pump in the
upright position. · The heat pump is designed for heating swimming pools; do
not use it for any other purpose. · The surroundings of the heat pump must be
kept clear to avoid restricting ventilation. · The heat pump must be kept away
from any source of fire. · Do not put anything into the inlet or outlet, and
do not remove the fan cover. · If any abnormal circumstances occur e.g.
abnormal noises, smells, smoke and leakage of electricity,
switch off the main power immediately and contact your authorised dealer. · Do
not try to repair the heat pump yourself or open the casing. · To extend the
life of your heat pump, ensure the pool water pump is on before starting the
heat pump, and
turn the pool water pump off after the heat pump is turned off.
