V. INSTALLATION GUIDE
Options for protecting devices and cable specification.
Pump protecting device, cable specification is subject to user’s option.
1. Installation Instruction and Requirements:
All electrical connections must be done by a qualified electrician and according to national and local electrical
codes. We have provided important safety messages in this manual and on your heater. Always read and
obey all safety warnings. All Hayward Heat Pumps must be installed in accordance with all applicable National
and Local codes. In the absence of local codes, refer to the latest edition of the Canadian Electrical Code
(CEC).
A. Installation
1. Always install the machine outdoors, while respecting the minimal clearances needed for proper operation
and heating. DO NOT place the unit next to shrubs, fences, etc. which can block the air inlet. These
locations deny the unit a continuous source of fresh air which reduces its efficiency and may prevent
adequate heat delivery.
2. Mount the unit on a sturdy base, preferably a concrete slab. The base should be completely isolated from
the building foundation wall to prevent the possibility of sound or vibration transmission into the building.
3. The pool heat pump is designed for outdoor installation and should not be installed in a fully
enclosed area, such as a shed, garage, etc. Recirculation of cold discharged air back into the evaporator
coil will greatly reduce unit heating capacity and efficiency.

be increased. The signal cable can be at maximum 50 m.
