ELECTRICAL HAZARDS
To reduce the risk of electrical shock:

All electrical connections should be made by a licensed electrician in accordance with national,
provincial and local codes and standards.
-
Before installing or removing any Elite equipment, make sure that all breakers covering the pool
area have been turned off.
-
A clearly identified breaker must be installed in order to be able to interrupt power to the heat
pump in case of an emergency.
-
Never open the electrical box without having shut off all power sources to the heat pump
beforehand.
-
If your heat pump is equipped with a water pump control option, don’t forget to turn off the breaker
for this pump prior to intervening.
CHEMICAL HAZARDS
Poorly balanced water may produce bacteria that can affect your health as well as damage your
pool and its equipment. Have your water analyzed weekly by an expert.
To avoid injury when using chemical products, wear rubber gloves and safety goggles, and work in
a well-ventilated area. Choose wisely the area where you will be handling these chemicals, as they
may damage any surface they come in contact with.
