TECHNICAL MANUAL. START-UP AND OPERATION
B. Installation conditions
Do not install the unit near a flammable gas source, since a gas leak may occur and cause an explosion.
WARNING
SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS: It is obligatory for users contact a specialized company that has experience installing and repairing
heat pumps. Users should not install or repair the heat pump themselves nor should another person do it.
The operating environment of the unit usually varies between 10 ºC and 35 ºC.
4. DESCRIPTION OF THE HEAT PUMP
A. Technical characteristics
- The calculation of power has been done with an outdoor air temperature
of 14 ºC, a water temperature of 24 ºC and 70% humidity.
- Operational temperature limits:
· Outdoor minimum air temperature: 0°C
· Maximum temperature of pool water: 36°C
- Maximum inlet water pressure 3,5 bar.

- At an air temperature lower than 0ºC (lowest working limit temperature) frost could appear
on the evaporator. In this case, it is recommended to switch off the equipment since keeping it
working will generate a poor heating level and so that, its electrical consumption will not be
worthwhile. The equipment could be switched on again once temperature has risen above 0ºC
and its battery has completely defrosted.
In order to obtain an optimal operation of the heat pump, certain norms must be respected:
A
. Use of free chlorine: ≤3 ppm
B
. Bromine total: max 6,6mg/l
C
. PH: between 6,8 and 8
D
. Salt: 4-6 gr/l
When washing the filter of the filtering pump for swimmingpools, the heat pump must be disconnected.
