Heatseeker Solar Pool Heating
Installation & User Manual
PUMP FAULTS
Ensure the controller has working sensors; otherwise the pump will not operate.
FAULT REASONS/SOLUTIONS
PUMP WILL NOT START
The pump will only ever run for the purpose of automatic heating if the pool
is below the temperature limit and solar conditions can provide heating. The
pump may also run for a flush in standby mode or for manual mode operation.
If the controller reports that the pump is off, then press select to enable manual
mode. The relay inside should click and the pump should operate. If the pump
does not operate, then plug the pump into a power point and test operation. If
the pump is okay, then the controller requires repair.
PUMP WILL NOT STOP
Turn off power to the controller and ensure the pump stops. If the pump continues
to operate, then unplug it from the power point and connect it to the 240V socket
marked PUMP at the bottom of the controller.
Apply power to the controller and if the pump starts instantaneously before
temperatures are displayed, then there may be a fault with the controller. Since the
controller shouldn’t run when there is a sensor fault, disconnect the roof sensor and
wait for approximately 30 seconds. If the pump continues to run, then the controller
requires repair.
POOL NOT HEATING
If the controller has stopped pumping and is displaying a higher temperature than
expected, it may be caused by a pump which is failing to prime. Check the pump
and if necessary prime the pump as per the pump manufacturers’ instructions then
reset the controller by turning it off/on.
RTC-FAIL
This can occur if the unit has been turned off for a prolonged period of time. Leave
the unit on for 30 seconds and this will allow charging of the supercapacitor. Next,
turn it off for 30 seconds before turning it back on.
