2. Connect the current to the heat pump and set the switch to ON. The
appliance will start up after the time delay (see below) has elapsed.
3. After a few minutes check whether the air being expelled from the
appliance is cooler.
4. Leave the appliance and filter pump in operation 24 hours per day until
the desired water temperature has been reached. At this point the heat
pump ceases operation. The appliance will now start up again
automatically (as long as the filter pump is in operation) whenever the
swimming pool temperature falls to 1 degree below the programmed
temperature.
Depending on the initial temperature of the swimming pool water and the
air temperature, several days may be needed to bring the water up to the
temperature required. Covering the swimming pool properly can
considerably shorten this period.
Time Delay – the appliance is fitted with built-in start-up delay of 3 minutes
as protection for the electronics and to increase the life of the contacts.
After this interval, the appliance will restart automatically. Even a brief
interruption in the flow of current will activate this delay and thus prevent
the appliance from starting up immediately. Additional interruptions in the
current during this delay will have no influence on the 3-minute
countdown.
3.9 Condensation
The intake air is cooled significantly as a result of the operation of the heat
pump when heating the swimming pool water, and water may condense on
the fins of the evaporator. When humidity is high, this could even amount
to several litres per hour. This is sometimes erroneously seen as a water
leak.
