❹ Maintenance
4.1 I Winterizing
•
Winterizing is vital to prevent the condenser breaking due to freezing. This is not covered by
the warranty.
•
To avoid damaging the equipment with condensation, do not fully cover it.
•
Switch off the device by pressing and holding for 2 seconds and disconnect it or switch off the electricity supply,
•
Close the water input and output valves and make sure that there is no water circulating in the heat pump,
•
Drain the water from the condenser (risk of freezing) by unscrewing the water input and output connectors on the
back of the heat pump,
•
In the case of full winterizing for the pool (complete shutdown of the filtration system, bleed the filtration circuit
or even pool drainage): tighten the two connectors by one turn to prevent any foreign bodies from getting into the
condenser,
•
In the case of winterizing for the heat pump only (shutdown of the heating only, the filtration keeps running): to not
tighten the connectors but add 2 caps (provided) on the condenser's water inputs and outputs.
•
We recommend that you put the aired winterizing micro cover on the heat pump.
4.2 I Maintenance
•
It is recommended that the device be general servicing at least on a yearly basis to ensure
proper operation, maintain performance levels and prevent some potential failures. These
operations are carried out at the user's expense, by a technician.
4.2.1 User maintenance
•
Make sure that the filter is not blocked by any foreign bodies.
•
Clean the evaporator (for location see § “1.3 I Dimensions and marking”) using a soft brush and a fresh water spray
(disconnect the power cable); do not fold over the metal wings, then clean the condensation drainage pipe to remove
any impurities that may be blocking it.
• Do not use a high pressure jet. Do not spray with rain water, salt water or water which is full of minerals.
•
Clean the outside of the device; do not use any solvent-based products. We can provide you with a specific cleaning
kit as an accessory: the PAC NET, see § “1.1 I Description”.
4.2.2 Maintenance to be carried out by a qualified technician
•
Please read the safety instructions provided in the chapter entitled “Installation and
maintenance” (pages 3 to 6) before performing any of the maintenance operations described
below.
•
Check that the regulation is operating correctly connected.
•
Check that the condensation flows correctly when the device is operating.
•
Check the safety mechanisms.
•
Check the connection of the metal masses to the earth.
•
Check that the electrical cables are correctly tightened and connected and that the electrical unit is clean.
