I. Winterising and Maintenance of Your Swimming Pool Heat Pump
1. At all times only let swimming pool water through the heat pump which has the correct
chemical balance.
•
Chlorine not to exceed 3 ppm
•
pH between 7.2 and 7.7
•
Total Alkalinity 90 – 150 ppm
•
Calcium Hardness 100 – 400 ppm
2. When it is decided to close down the swimming pool for the winter it is important that
the heat pump be immediately emptied of water.
3. Ensure that pool water can not freely flow out of the pool and then loosen both coupling
nuts to the pipe work and withdraw the pipes from the heat pump.
4. Drain all the water from the heat pump.
5. Also empty the pipes.
6. The heat pump warranty does not cover frost damage.
7. The heat pump may be left outside all the year round but if you do have some room for
the heat pump in a shed or garage, this will be a perfect place to keep it for the winter
period.
8. You may wish to cover the heat pump to protect it from the worst weather conditions
but do not wrap up the unit too tightly, let air circulate around it.
9. Do not
lay the heat pump on its side, always store upright.
