Preparing the heat pump for use
Typical set-up
The factory provides the heat pump, Condens flux, connection kit and winter
cover. Other parts, including a contingent by-pass must be provided by the
user or installer. The heat pump should be located maximum 7,5m (1) away from
the swimming pool. The longer the distance from the pool, the greater the heat
loss from the piping.
WARNING
- Put the heat pump on a flat, solid base. Tilting the heat pump for max 3° is allowed. Install silent blocks in order to avoid vibrations and noise.
- All feeding of water treatment to the pool water has to be done downstream of the heat pump (2).
- It is normal for condens water to come out of the heat pump. This is not a leak or fault with the unit. If the humidity is very high, the condens water could be a number of liters a day.
- Always keep the heat pump in upright position. If the unit has been tilted, then wait 24h before starting the heat pump.
- It is recommended to install a by-pass for easy maintenance.
Unobstructed space
A free area around the heat pump has to be kept clear from any object to get
fresh air across the evaporator. Do not obstruct the fan.
Electrical wiring
Connect the electrical wires using the following steps.
Step 1: R move display.
Step 2: Unscrew blue front housing.
Step 3: Snap off blue front housing
Step 4: Remove flow sensor
- Please turn off filter pump. Flow must be stopped before disconnecting flow sensor. Drain the water out of the condensor to prevent water loss.
- Make sure the arrow upon the flow sensor is pointing towards the water connection (1).
Step 5: Remove transparent cover.
Step 6: Insert the electrical cable at the bottom of the heat pump (1).
Make electrical connection with heat pump’s terminal block (2).
Operation and Use
Types of display interfaces in the heat pump
4 types of interfaces can be found in the heat pump.
General display interface
- Display lock: The display shows for 3 seconds to unlock the display.
- when there’s no interaction for 5min. Press any button
Parameter interface
Parameters can be set by a qualified person in order to make the heat pump
more efficient depending on the specific conditions of the swimming
pool.
User editable parameter may be changed by the end user. Installer editable parameters and factory settings may only be changed in a service center or by similar qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard. Please find a complete list and more information about each error in full version.
Error interface
When an issue is deteced the heat pump will try to solve it by analyzing
several parameters, restarting components and bypassing electronics. An error
is shown on the display when the program can not solve the issue.
Please contact your service centre or similarly qualified persons when an
error occurs.

Maintenance and Inspection
- Check the water inlet and drainage often. The water and air inflow into the system should be sufficient so that its performance and reliability does not get compromised. You should clean the pool filter regularly to avoid damage to the unit caused by clogging of the filter.
- The area around the unit should be spacious and well ventilated as shown in section 2.2. Clean the sides of the heat pump regularly to maintain good heat exchange and to save energy.
- Check if all processes in the unit are operational.
- Check the power supply and cable connections regularly. Should the unit begin to function abnormally or should you notice a smell from an electrical component, arrange for timely repair or replacement.
- You should also purge the water if the unit will not work for an extended period of time. You should check all parts of the unit thoroughly and completely fill the system with water before turning it on again afterwards.
If your heat pump has been stored for a long time, perform the following steps when re-starting the system:
- Inspect the system for any debris or damage to the case.
- Clean the evaporator fins with a soft cloth if necessary. Make sure the evaporator fins are clean. Blocking the air intake will cause insufficient operation and will result in lower production of heat.
- Check the fan for blockages.
- Connect the water inlet and outlet.
- Turn on the pool water circulation pump to start the water flow to the heat pump.
- Restore electrical power to the heat pump and press the reset button on the RCD.
