Installation
A comprehensive installation description is provided in this chapter. This chapter is primarily intended for installation engineers, but
can also be read by the end user to increase his/her knowledge.

Positioning the unit
The pool heat pump will work ideally under the following
conditions:
;
Access to fresh air.
;
Correct electrical installation.
;
Clean pool filter and correct pipe routing.
In principle the pool heat pump can be placed anywhere
outdoors. However, do not place the pool heat pump
enclosed with restricted access to the air intake and air
exhaust (see the figure below). A structure with a roof is not
necessary. If you want to build in the heat pump, remember
that exhaust air must be ventilated properly!
See the illustration below for horizontal fan models.
Set up
The pool heat pump must be placed on a firm, horizontal
base and should not be placed next to or be installed with
brackets on sensitive walls with a lightweight structure. The
unit must be placed so that noise from the compressor and
fan disturb the surroundings as little as possible.
The unit must stand firmly, straight and raised from ground
level. Ensure a firm and flat surface is provided, for example,
garden slabs, concrete bed, Leca blocks or similar.
Large amounts of melt and condensation water can be
discharged during defrosting and operation. Consequently,
it is important to provide good drainage and run-off. Up to
10 litres of condensation water per hour can form during
operation.
The outdoor section must be placed so that the air supply
to the evaporator coil is sufficient. This produces a higher
output and improved efficiency.
