GENERAL MAINTENANCE
CAUTION!
Make sure all power is disconnected to the heater prior to washing.
Cleaning
Your heater requires only minimal maintenance,
•
Make sure the heater has good airflow through the evaporator. To ensure good airflow,
remove any leaves, paper or other debris. Also, be sure to keep all shrubs trimmed back
from the heater for allowance of sufficient airflow.
•
Make sure the drain holes in the base are free of debris to ensure proper
drainage of condensate water.
Cleaning of the evaporator coil is only as needed. If the heater
’s
location is near an ocean or gulf,
regularly inspect the coil for salt or sand build up. If build up is excessive, simply rinse the
evaporator coil with fresh water. Use of a garden hose with low water pressure will work best.
Use extra care, so that
you don’t
bend the coil fins.
The heater’s housing is made from a corrosion
-free, UV resistant polymer. It is designed to last
for many years. Any dust or debris can be wiped off with a cloth or sprayed off with fresh water.
CAUTION! DO NOT USE ALCOHOL-BASED CLEANERS!
They could damage the polymer housing.
Winterizing
In areas where freezing is prevalent, it is necessary to completely drain any standing water from
the heater and disconnect it from the pool piping. Draining the water from the heater prevents
the internal piping from cracking when exposed to freezing conditions. Cracked piping due to
freezing is not covered under the warranty.
In areas where freezing conditions are non-existent, winterizing is not required.
