HEAT PUMP OPERATION
CONTROL ON/OFF
When the unit is powered up, but in the OFF mode, the display will show
“OFF”. To turn the unit on, press the Up arrow button until desired
temperature is reached. To turn the unit off press and hold the Down arrow
button until the display shows off. This point will be one level below 50
degrees. This is convenient for shutting the unit down for short periods of
time.
CAUTION:
When the control is in the “OFF” mode, there is still high
voltage to the unit. If you want to turn the unit off for long periods of time,
shut the main power off to the unit at the main or service disconnect.
POOL/SPA MODES
The control is equipped with two independent thermostats, one for pool
temperature and one for spa temperature. This is to allow the user to
preset a temperature of their choice and switch between the two settings
with the POOL/SPA button located on the control. When power is applied to
the control it will turn on in the previous mode, whether it is Pool Heat or
Spa Heat. When water is flowing through the unit and the water
temperature meets the specified set point condition, the control will initiate
a heat cycle.
If you do not have a spa, you can use the spa thermostat as a second
temperature setting if you do not want to maintain full temperature all the
time. For instance, if you swim on the weekends only, you can set the
temperature back during the week to save costs but maintain a warmer
temperature for a shorter recovery time for the weekend.
ATTENTION:
There is a 5-minute time delay upon completion of a heating
cycle. This is to ensure that the critical components do not fail due to short
cycling of the heater.
The display on the control will show the thermostat being used and the
operating mode on the top line and the current water temperature on the
bottom line. The possible mode displays are: “POOL – HEAT”, “SPA –
HEAT”.
