level is high. A rough estimate of the heat loss per 30 m is 0.6 kWh (2,000 BTU) for every 5 ºC difference between the
water temperature in the pool and the temperature of the soil surrounding the pipe. This increases the operating
time by 3% to 5%.
3.4 Check-valve installation
Note: If automatic dosing equipment for chlorine and acidity (pH) is used, it is essential to protect the heat pump
against excessively high chemical concentrations which may corrode the heat exchanger. For this reason, equipment
of this sort must always be fitted in the piping on the
downstream side of the heat pump, and it is recommended to
install a check-valve to prevent reverse flow in the absence of water circulation.
Damage to the heat pump caused by failure to observe this instruction is not covered by the warranty.
