DO NOT DEPRIVE HEATER OF WATER FLOW FOR MORE THAN 24 HOURS WITHOUT DRAINING IT. Make
sure you leave the bypass valves open as shown in figure 1.
At the beginning of each season you must properly balance your water according to the standards prescribed on
the previous page
BEFORE
circulating water inside the heat pump.
At the end of each season, if the heater is no longer used, and proper pool water chemistry is not maintained, it
should be disconnected from the water line and drained to prevent any possible corrosion.
All electrical connections must be done by a qualified electrician, according to the local electrical codes. Always
cut off the unit’s main power whenever the access panel is open or removed. Always install the machine outdoors
(unless approved by the manufacturer), while respecting the minimal clearances needed for proper operation and
heating.
PROPER POOL CHEMISTRY IS VITAL TO THE LIFE OF YOUR HEATER. PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THE
TOTAL ALKALINITY AND TOTAL DISSOLVED SOLIDS
. IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THAT YOU HAVE YOUR
POOL CHEMISTRY CHECKED OFTEN BY AN OUTSIDE INDEPENDENT POOL STORE.
