Operating Instruction for Swimming Pool Heat Pumps Heatermax 15 / 20 / 30 / 50

Temperature Performance
A heat pump is designed to extract heat from the surrounding air and transfer it to the pool water. The higher the air temperature, the more heat the heat pump will be able to transfer to the pool water.
In order to improve the efficiency of your heat pump it is recommended that you:
• protect the pool with a cover (floating cover, roller cover …), so as to avoid heat loss,
• choose periods when the outside temperature is mild (> on average 10° C) in order to facilitate the temperature increase (this may take several days. The actual time will vary according to weather conditions and
the power of the heat pump
• check that the filtration time is sufficient, i.e. during the heating phase, water circulation must be continuous and maintain the temperature throughout the season, allow for an “automatic” circulation of at least
12 hours/day. Setting the temperature to Maximum will not heat the water any faster.
Attention!
Y
our appliance will give off water in the form of condensation, which is normal. This water is the humidit
y
contained in the air which condenses on contact with certain cold
components inside the heat pump.
Y
our appliance can drain several liters of water per da
y
.
Maintenance
Attention: Before an
y
maintenance, ensure that the appliance is disconnected from the power suppl
y
.
• Clean your pool and filtration system regularly to avoid the damage of the appliance as a result of dirt or clogged filter.
• Check the appliance, that no foreign bodies obstruct the fan grid,
• When cleaning the pool heater, do not twist or bend the metal blades, and do not use a high-pressure water hose for cleaning.
• A general servicing of the appliance is recommended both when winterizing and when restarting in order to ensure the proper operation of your heat pump and to prevent potential failures.
• Discharge the water from bottom of water pump if the heat pump unit will stop running for a longer time (especially during the winter season).
Winterizing
• Switch off the heat pump by pressing the button for 2 seconds, then disconnect the power cable.
• Ensure that no water is flowing through the heat pump,
• Drain the water condenser (risk of freezing) by removing the two pool water inlet and outlet connections at the back of the heat pump,
• Store the appliance in a frost-free location. To avoid a damage of the appliance by condensation, do not protect it with an air-tight cover.

Troubleshooting Guide
There can be several reason why your pool heat pump does not properly work:
• The heat pump remains on “pause” for 30 seconds before its starting up.
• The heat pump switches off, once the pool has reached the required temperature
• The heat pump may have detected a malfunction (see below table).
Malfunction
LED light
Reason
Solution
Standby
Running
Ambient sensor failure
The sensor is in an open or shortcut circuit
Check the sensor, and replace it if necessary
High Pressure prorection
1. Too much refrigerant
2. No enough air flow
1. Discharge redundant refrigerant from the heat pump gas
system
2. Clean the air exchanger
Low Pressure protection
1. Not enough refrigerant
2. Not enough water flow
3. Jammed filter or pipe
1. Check if there is any gas leakage, re-fill the refrigerant
2. Clean the air exchanger
3. Replace the filter or pipe
Water Pressure switch failure
No or insufficient water flow
1. Check the water flow volume
2. Check the pool pump for failure
Low ambient temperature failure
The ambient air temperature is below 7°C
When the ambient air temperature is above 8°C, the pool
heat pump will resume running
The LED light is off
The LED light is on
If you have checked all the above points and the problem persists, please contact your retailer.
