3. Installation of the heat pump unit
The factory only provides the heat pump unit. Other items, including an eventual bypass, that are
necessary for the water system, are to be provided by users or installers.
Attention! Please follow these steps when installing the heat pump:
1. All feeding of chemicals to the pool water must be done downstream of the heat pump.
2. Install a bypass when the flow of the pool pump is more than 20% above the rated flow of the heat
exchanger of the heat pump.
3. Install the heat pump on a solid foundation and use the damping rubbers to eliminate vibrations and
noise.
4. Always keep the unit straight up. If the unit has been tilted or put on its side, allow 24h before
starting the unit.
3.1 Heat pump location
The unit may be installed virtually anywhere outdoors. If you wish to place the heat pump inside, make sure
there is enough room and ventilation around the pump.
DO NOT put the unit in an enclosed area with a limited air volume where the discharge air will be re-
circulated. DO NOT put the unit next to shrubs, which can block the air inlet. Such locations deny a
continuous source of fresh air, which reduce its efficiency and may prevent adequate heat delivery. Install
the heat pump where you have the best access to warm air during the swimming season.
