5.2. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
5.2.1. Location and size
ATTENTION
The heat pump should be installed in a place with good ventilation.
The heat pump is usually installed within a perimeter area extending 7.5m from the swimming
pool. The greater the distance from the pool, the greater the heat loss in the pipes. As the
pipes are mostly underground, the heat loss is low for distances up to 30m (15m from and to
the heat pump; 30m in total) unless the ground is wet or the groundwater level is high. A rough
estimate of the heat loss per 30m is 0.6 kWh (2,000 BTU) for every 5°C 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%.
Do not obstruct the air inlet or outlet of the heat pump. The efficiency may be reduced or even stopped.
