STARTING THE HEATSTAR
The Heatstar will start to operate as soon as the mains electricity supply is connected.
The unit can only be properly operated when all the installation services are complete i.e. electrics, air
distribution duct work, pool water filtration pipe work, boiler circuit pipe work etc.
The Heatstar cannot be started until the pool is full of water and the pool filtration circuit ready to operate.
Before connecting the mains electricity supply to the Heatstar, the following procedure should be followed :
CHECK ELECTRICAL SAFETY
- Check correct and good Earth connection.
- Check rating and operation of RCD and MCB breakers.
START UP POOL WATER FILTRATION PUMP
Connect mains electricity supply to the pool water filtration pump and leave running until the entire water system
is primed and all air has been expelled from the pipe work. This can take several minutes.
It may be necessary to bleed air from high points in the pipe circuit.
Check that there are no leaks within the pool water pipe circuit and that the pressure gauge on the pool water
filter is indicating normal pressure.
AIR FILTER
Ensure that the pool room intake air filter is in place and that it is not obstructed by dust etc.
BUILDING DUST
Do not start the Heatstar if the pool room is dusty, for this will quickly obstruct the air filter.
AIR DUCT WORK
Ensure that the air duct work is clear from obstructions or water.
If any air or fire dampers are fitted within the duct work or grilles, ensure that these are open.
SWITCH ON FUEL BOILER
Ensure that the fuel boiler and associated circulating pump is ready to function.
If the fuel boiler is controlled via the Heatstar, the boiler may not come on until the Heatstar is switched on and
demanding heat.
SETTING THE CONTROLS
Check the controls on the Heatstar are set as listed in
‘Initial Control Settings’ (these are factory pre-set).
ACCESS PANELS
Ensure that all access panels on the Heatstar are securely fastened in place.
SWITCH ON ELECTRICAL MAINS POWER TO HEATSTAR
On the Heatstar control panel, the
‘POWER’ amber neon should be lit.
The supply fan will start immediately, the exhaust air fan can start following a short delay.
The air heating and pool water heating neons are likely to come on immediately to indicate that heating is being
called for.
The dehumidifier process will probably not switch on until the humidity level in the pool room has had the
opportunity to build up. This will only happen when the pool water is heated up to near the required temperature.
