ADJUSTMENTS TO THE CONTROL SETTINGS
Within a new installation, it will take around 10-14 days for the system as a whole to balance and stabilise and
no control adjustment is advised during this initial period.
If these conditions are acceptable then the controls on the Heatstar will
require no further adjustment and the respective settings of the controls should be noted down for future
reference.
If you require to operate the system at conditions not yet obtained, then adjust the controls accordingly (refer to
‘About The Controls).
It should be noted that the controls should not be moved more than one degree per 24 hours, otherwise the
balance of the system may be disturbed.
CONTROL OF THE POOL WATER CIRCULATION PUMP
The Heatstar should NOT be connected to a time clock.
The pool water circulation pump can be operated via a time clock, as long as :
-
The circulation pump is running during the periods when the pool is in use and the surface cover
removed.
-
If no surface cover is fitted, then the pool circulation pump must run 24 hours per day.
-
The circulation pump is running for sufficient time per day to enable effective pool water heating and
filtration to take place.
With regard to pool water heating, the minimum run time possible for the pool water circulation pump will be
around 8 hours per day.
The Heatstar will automatically sense, via a flow pressure switch, if the pool water circulation pump has switched
off and will stop heating the pool water and dehumidifying via refrigeration.
CONTROL OF THE BOILER
The boiler supplying heat to the Heatstar should not be governed by any form of time clock control. This also
applies to the boiler water circulating pump.
The Heatstar may call for heat from the boiler at any time, day or night, and, if that heat is not available, then
control of the pool room environment will be compromised.
