3.6 Hydraulic connection
By-Pass assembly
The heat pump must be connected to the pool by means of a
By-Pass assembly.
A By-Pass is an assembly consisting of 3 valves that
regulate the flow circulating in the heat pump.
During maintenance operations, the By-Pass permits the heat
pump to be isolated from the system without interrupting your
installation.
Making a hydraulic connection with the By-Pass kit
WARNING: Do not run water through the hydraulic circuit for 2 hours after applying the adhesive.
Step 1: Take the necessary steps to cut your pipes.
Step 2: Make a straight perpendicular cut through the PVC pipes with a saw.
Step 3: Assemble your hydraulic circuit without connecting it in order to check that it perfectly fits
your installation, then dismantle the pipes to be connected.
Step 4: Chamfer the ends of the cut pipes.
Step 5: Apply pipe and connections cleaner to the ends of the pipes and fittings, to be connected so
both are cleaned before gluing.
Step 6: Apply the adhesive in the same place.
Step 7: Assemble the pipe and fittings.
Step 8: Clean off any adhesive remaining on the PVC.
Step 9: Leave to dry for at least 2 hours before putting the hydraulic circuit into water.
