Installation, general 

Aqua-Mex and Aqua-Mex FE can be installed together with a heat pump, solar panels or other heatsource, either with built-in 
temperature control or solely as a heat exchanger.

P(

The circulation pump’s motor, openings and condensation holes must be left free from any supplementary insulation material.

P(

If there is a risk of sub-zero temperatures, and also if the pool is closed for longer than one month, the heat exchanger should

  be drained of all water.

2.  Seal the thread on the non-return valve using thread sealing 
 

tape or similar. 

3.  Fit the two wall mounting brackets. 
 

Each bracket has two holes Ø6, c/c 91 mm. Between the

 

brackets the c/c distance is 610 mm. 

4.  Place the heat exchanger in the brackets. 
5.  Connect the secondary circuit (the pool water). 
6.  Screw the brackets together. 
7.  Check that the connections do not leak. 

After this, the pool’s circulation system can be started up.

Standard Aqua-Mex: 

1. Fit the two wall mounting brackets. 
  Each bracket has 2 holes Ø6, c/c 91 mm. Note the c/c distance 
  between the brackets for each model, see the dimension 
  diagram. 
2. Place the heat exchanger in the brackets. 
3. Connect the secondary circuit (the pool water). 
4. Screw the brackets together.
