2. Installation and connection
ATTENTION:
Please pay attention to the following rules when installing the heat pump:
1. Any addition of chemicals must be carried out at the piping
located downstream
from the heat pump.
2. Always hold the heat pump upright. If it has been held at certain angle more than 30
°
, wait at least
24 hours before starting the heat pump.
2.1 Location of your heat pump
The heat pump will work properly in any desired location as long as the following three factors are present:
1. Fresh air
–
2. Electricity
–
3. Swimming pool water
The unit may be installed in virtually any outdoor location as long as the specified minimum distances to other
objects are maintained (see drawing below). Please consult your installer for installation with an indoor pool.
Installation at a windy location does not present any problem at all, unlike the situation with a gas heater.
ATTENTION:
Never install the heat pump in a closed room with limited air volume in which the air discharged from the
heat pump will be reused, or close to shrubbery that might block the air inlet. Such locations impair the
continuous supply of fresh air, may reduce the running efficiency and possibly prevent sufficient heat output.
2.2 Initial operation
Note: In order to heat your pool water, the water pump must run firstly to make the water circulated
through the heat pump.
Your heat pump will not start up if the water is not circulating.
