➢
The flow tube does not feel warm:
Due to the high efficiency of your electric heater
no warmth
should be detectable from the flow tube
of the heater.
The most likely causes of the flow tube feeling warm are:
Possible Cause 1:
The heater has been positioned in direct sunlight.
Possible Cause 2:
An air pocket is trapped inside the heater particularly if the tank feels
warmer at the highest point of the tank (as air rises).
➢
The water entering the pool does not feel much warmer:
The temperature gain of the water after it has passed through the heater will be directly proportional
to the volume of water being pumped in relation to the power output of the heater.
For example:
A 6-kW heater, when connected to a 4,000 litre/hour pump will
produce a lift in temperature of approximately 1.2°C (almost
undetectable to the human hand), however, as the water being
heated is re-circulated from a single body of water, the time required
to heat it remains unaffected by the volume of flow. A popular
misconception is that slowing down the flow rate will speed up the
heating process.
5. MAINTENANCE
We recommend annual maintenance and cleaning of the heater to ensure proper operation.
WARNING:
Before performing any maintenance on the unit isolate from the main power supply.
The heater should be drained, the flow tube and heating elements should be cleaned. Removing
scale/sludge and any debris or blockages will extend the life expectancy of the heating element(s) and
avoid potential failures.
Check that electrical cable connections are properly tightened.
