Note:

 If your pool heater does not operate for reasons other than those mentioned above, please contact 

Consumer Assistance Center

 (see p.4) to obtain the proper authorization for the warranty to apply.

Ask your electrician to verify your heat pump’s power supply by 
checking over the l1 and l2 or l1, l2 and l3 connections in the 
unit’s service box.

There is no display and the fan is not running,  

but the compressor is running.

while your THERmEAu pool 
heater is in the heating mode, 
a large quantity of warm and 
humid air passes over the  
evaporator and causes con-
densation. It is normal to see 
condensation dripping under  
the heater.

To check if the water really is a 
leak, you must stop the heater 
and leave the pool pump running 
for over 5 hours. If water is still 
coming out of your heater after 
this period, then call your dealer 
for service.

There is water around the unit.

Heat loss is too much for the heater; cover your pool as often as 
you can.

Evaporator restricted due to improper location (see section on 
locating the unit).

Evaporator is dirty.  

Restricted water flow.

Clean it.

Adjust water flow. 

The heater is running but desired water  

temperature cannot be reached.
