Installation and Operation Manual
WarninG
Prolonged immersion in hot water can induce
hyperthermia.
WarninG
Hyperthermia occurs when the internal body
temperature reaches a level several degrees above
the normal body temperature of 98.6°F (37°C).
Symptoms include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness,
lethargy, and an increase in the internal body
temperature. The effects of hyperthermia include:
•
Lack of awareness of impending hazard
•
Failure to perceive heat
•
Failure to recognize need to leave spa
•
Physical inability to leave spa
•
Fetal damage in pregnant women
•
Unconsciousness resulting in a danger of
drowning
swimming pool Energy saving tips
It is important to note that a heat pump will not heat
a pool as fast as a large gas or electric pool heater. If
the pool water is allowed to cool significantly, it may
take several days to return to the desired swimming
temperature. For weekend use, it is
more economical
to maintain the pool water temperature at or near your
desired swimming temperature. If you do
not
plan to
use your pool for a prolonged period, then you might
choose to turn the heat pump completely off
or
decrease
the temperature setting of the control several degrees to
minimize energy consumption.
Zodiac offers the following recommendations to help
conserve energy and minimize the cost of operating
your heat pump without sacrificing comfort.
1.
The American Red Cross recommends a maximum
water temperature of 78°F (25°C). Use an accurate
pool thermometer. A difference of 4°F (2°C),
between 78°F and 82°F (26°C and 28°C), will
significantly increase energy consumption.
2.
Carefully monitor the water temperature of your
pool in the summertime. You can reduce heat
pump usage due to warmer air temperatures.
3.
During the winter or when on vacation for longer
than a week, turn off the heat pump.
4.
Find the proper setting on the heat pump
temperature control and use the Set Point Lockout
or lock the cover on the heat pump controller to
discourage further adjustments.
5.
Set the pump time clock to start the pump no
earlier than 6:00 AM during the pool heating
season. This is the time when nightly heat loss
balances.
6.
Where possible, shelter the pool from prevailing
winds with well-trimmed hedges or other
landscaping, cabanas, or fencing.
7.
The use of an automatic pool cover, if installed,
provides a valuable safety feature, reduces heat
loss, conserves chemicals, and reduces the load on
filtration systems..
8.
The use of a solar blanket can reduce the heat loss
caused by evaporation on the surface area of the
pool.
