1. Warning

The WARNING sign denotes a hazard. It calls attention to a procedure, practice, or the like, which, if not
correctly performed or adhered to, could result in personal injury or injury to a third party. These signs
are rare, but are extremely important.

a. Keep the heat pump away from fire source.

b. It must be placed in well ventilated area, indoor or closed area is not allowed.

c. Repair and disposal must be carried out by trained service personnel

d. Vacuumize completely before welding. Welding can only be carried out by

professional personnel in service center.
2. Attention

a. Please read the following instructions before installation, use and maintenance.

b. Installation must be done by professional staff only in accordance with this manual.

c. A leakage test must be performed after installation.

d. Except for the methods recommended by the manufacturer, do not use any methods to accelerate

the defrosting process or clean the frosted parts.

e. If a repair is required, please contact the nearest after-sales service center. The repair process must

be strictly in accordance with manual. All repair practice by non-professional is prohibited.

f. Set proper temperature in order to get comfortable water temperature to avoid overheating or

overcooling.

g. Please don’t stack substances, which will block air flow near inlet or outlet area, otherwise the

efficiency of the heater will be reduced or even stopped.

h. Don’t use or stock combustible gas or liquid such as thinners, paint and fuel to avoid fire.

i. In order to optimize the heating effect, please install heat preservation insulation on pipes between

swimming pool and the heat pump, and please use a recommended cover on the swimming pool.

j. Connecting pipes of the swimming pool and the heater should be ≤10m.

3. Safety

a. Please keep the main power supply switch far away from the children.

b. When a power cut happens during operating, and later the power is restored, the heater will start up.

c. Please switch off the main power supply in lightening and storm weather to prevent from machine

damage that caused by lightning;

d. Any repairing should be conducted in the area with good ventilation. The ignition source is

prohibited during the inspection.

e. To reduce the safety risk, a safety check should be done before maintenance or repair.

f. If a leakage of refrigerant gas happens, all operation must be stop and call for emergency service

immediately.

D. Installation guidance

1. Installation reminder

Attention:
1. Any chemical products should be added in outlet tube of heat pump, even it doesn’t entry the
heat pump.
2. Always keeps upright.

a. Location and dimension

The pool heat pump should be installed in a good ventilation place, with stable power supply and filter.
The distance between heat pump and other objects like wall, bush or devices should be at least 50 cm,
the distance between heat pump and the pool should be atleast 2 meters.

b. Test machine
Attention: please make sure follow the order: Open water pump → Open heat pump; Close heat
pump → Close water pump

1) The frame must be fixed by bolts (M10) to concrete foundation or brackets. The concrete foundation
must be solid and fastened; the bracket must be strong enough and antirust treated;

2) Please don’t stack substances that will block air flow near inlet or outlet area, and there is no barrier
within 50 cm behind the main machine, or the efficiency of the heater will be reduced or even
stopped;

3) The machine needs an appended pump (Supplied by the user). The recommended pump
specification-flux: refer to Technical Parameter, Max. lift ≥10m;

4) Please follow the order to use the machine:

Open water pump → Open heat pump;
Close heat pump → Close water pump
5) When the machine is running, there will be condensation water discharged from the bottom, please
pay attention to it. Please hold the drainage nozzle (accessory) into the hole and clip it well, and then
connect a pipe to drain the condensation water out.

2. Wiring

a. Connect to appropriate power supply, the voltage should comply with the rated voltage of the
products.
b. Earth the machine well.
c. Wiring must be handled by a professional technician according to the circuit diagram.
d. Set leakage protector according to the local code for wiring (leakage operating current ≤ 30mA).
e. The layout of power cable and signal cable should be orderly and not affecting each other.

E. Testing

1. Inspect heat pump before use

a. The ventilating device and outlets are operating adequately and are not obstructed.

b. It’s prohibited to install refrigeration pipe or components in corrosive environment.

c. Inspect the electric wiring on basis of the electric wiring diagram and earthing connection.

d. Double check the main machine power switch should be off.

e. Inspect the temperature setting.

f. Inspect the air inlet and outlet.

2. Leakage detection notice and method

a. Leakage checking is prohibited in closed area.

b. The ignition source is prohibited during the leakage inspection. A halide torch (or any other detector

using a naked flame) shall not be used.

c. Leakage detection fluids can be applied with most refrigerants but the use of detergents containing

chlorine shall be avoided as the chlorine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the copper pipe.

d. Vacuumize completely before welding. Welding can only be carried out by professional personnel in

service center.

e. Please stop using while gas leakage occur, and contact professional personnel in service center.

3. Trial

a. The user must “Start the Pump before the Machine, and Turn off the Machine before the Pump”, or

the machine will be damaged.

b. Before start the heat pump, please check for any leakage of water; and set suitable temperature in

the thermostat, and then switch on power supply.

c. In order to protect the swimming pool heater, the machine is equipped with a time lag starting

function, the fan will run 3 minute earlier than the compressor when starting the machine, and it will

stop running 3 minute later than the compressor when power off the machine.

d. After the swimming pool heater start up, please kindly checking for any abnormal noise from the

machine.
4. Condensate water

It might have condensate water on evaporator, especially in an humid environment, it could have liters of
water, sometimes it will be misunderstand as a leakage.
