9 EvoHeat Advanced DHP-R Manual
5.6 Rubber Feet
All EvoHeat units are provided with rubber feet which EvoHeat highly recommend being installed. The rubber feet
help reduce vibration of the unit and help provide a space below the heat pump to install the drainage barbs.
5.7 Condensate Drain Barb
Fit the condensate drain barb into the 2 holes under the unit if you
need to direct water away from the heater. Put in hot water if stiff.
5.8 Drainage & Condensation
Whilst the heater is operating, water in the air condenses on the fins of the evaporator. In the instance of high
humidity, the condensate may be several litres per hour. This may give the impression that the heater is leaking,
however this is a normal function of heat pumps.
The heater will automatically activate reverse cycle or de-icing mode when required which also increases condensate
discharge. This normally occurs at temperatures below 8 degC. The condensate water will discharge through the
base of the heater. As an option a pipe can be connected to the drain on the base of the unit to direct condensate
water to an appropriate location.
NOTE: A quick way to verify that the water is condensation is to shut off the unit and keep the pool pump running. If
the water stops running out of the basepan, it is condensation. AN EVEN QUICKER WAY IS to TEST THE DRAIN WATER
FOR CHLORINE – if the is no chlorine present, then it’s condensation.
5.9 Plumbing
The Swimming Pool Heat Pumps exclusive rated flow titanium heat exchanger requires no special plumbing
arrangements except bypass (please set the flow rate according to the nameplate). The water pressure drop is less
than 10kPa at max.
Flow rate: Since there is no residual heat or flame Temperatures, the unit does not need copper heat sink piping.
PVC pipe can be run straight into the unit.
Location: Connect the unit in the pool pump discharge (return) line downstream of all filter and pool pumps, and
upstream of any chlorinators, ozonators or chemical pumps.
Standard model have slip glue fittings which accept 40 mm PVC pipe for connection to the pool or spa filtration
piping. By using a 50 NB to 40NB you can plumb 40NB.
Give serious consideration to adding a quick coupler fitting at the unit inlet and outlet to allow easy draining of unit
for winterizing and to provide easier access should servicing be required.
