Pipe Work
It is essential that the pipe work connecting to and from the heater has a
minimum bore (internal diameter) of 32 mm. To support correct air
purging and to ensure the heater remains completely full of water during
operation; the return pipe which carries the water back to the pool must
incorporate a safety loop or ‘kick-up’ in the pipe as close as possible to
the heater (see Fig.4)
NOTE: When coupling to a flexible pipe a safety loop can easily be
formed by directing the pipe up and over an obstacle. Pipe clips
should be used to securely fasten all hose connections.
Weather Protection
The heater must be installed within a dry weather proof area.
Caution!
If the heater is unused during the winter months, it must be
drained to prevent frost damage.
Electrical Connection
The heater must be installed in accordance with the country / regional
requirements and regulations. In any event the work must be carried out
by a qualified electrician, who will provide a certificate of conformity upon
completion of the work. The power supply must be fitted with an RCD. If
required, your electrician may replace the cable entry gland supplied with
a larger size to secure the cable powering the heater. This will not affect
your warranty if undertaken by a qualified electrician.
Cable section: This should be calculated at 5-amp / mm² for distances
up to 20 metres (these sections are indicative and should be checked
and adapted if necessary for cable lengths over 20 metres).
