ENVISION POOL HEATER INSTALLATION MANUAL
Water Flow and Connections
Water connections are made at the rear of the heater.
Both water in and out are labeled just above the water
connections. LEFT REAR = WATER OUT and RIGHT REAR
= WATER IN. Two in. unions are supplied and are made to
accept 2 in. rigid PVC pipe. NOTE: Unions can be used for
quick drainage of your heater and winterizing.
• Heater must be piped downstream from filter in the pool
return line.
• In-line chlorinators must be piped downstream from
heater. A check valve must be installed between the
heater and chlorinator to prevent drain back of the
chlorine when the pump is off. A chemical trap may also
be piped at least 6 in. above the height of the chlorinator.
• When all the plumbing connections are complete, and
ample drying time is allowed, run the filter pump and
check the entire system for water leaks.
• Make sure filter is clean and there are no obstructions in
the filtering system.
• Proper water flow is essential to the performance of your
heater. The minimum flow rate is 20 gpm.

Chemical Use
Water quality must be checked regularly and maintained
within recommended limits at all times. Failure to
maintain the proper water quality will greatly reduce the
life of your heater.
• Never add chemicals directly into skimmer.
• Automatic chlorinators must be piped downstream from
the heater. A check valve must be installed between
the chlorinator and heater to prevent raw chlorine from
draining back into the heater. A chemical trap may be
piped at least 6 in. above the chlorinator. See Installation
with In-line Chlorinator diagram above.
The heat exchanger in your heat pump contains a titanium
inner tube with a PVC outer shell that will withstand
almost any water chemistry. While the heat exchanger
provides superior protection against poor water
chemistry, it is important to maintain adequate water
quality to help preserve other components in the system
such as pumps and filters. The following water quality
guidelines are listed below.
• pH Level 7.4 – 7.8
• Chlorine Concentration 1 – 5 ppm
• Total Alkalinity 100 – 200 ppm
• Calcium Hardness 100 – 300 ppm
