P a g e 1. Preface Thank you for choosing a Evo SOLACE UNIVERSAL Multi-functional Commercial Pool Dehumidifier & Ventilation unit. This is the operation manual for models C-250 to C-1800. Please read this manual carefully as it provides useful operation and maintenance information that will maximise the benefits your dehumidifier can offer.
P a g e 2. How It Works MULTI FUNCTIONAL DEHUMIDIFIER REFRIGERANT SYSTEM SCHEMATIC The fan draws in warm, moist air from the pool enclosure. This air passes through the evaporator (dehumidification) coil and gives up heat energy to the refrigerant which is in a cool, liquid state. This exchange of energy causes the air temperature to fall below its dew point, resulting in moisture condensation on the evaporator coil.
P a g e 3. Safety Instructions Read the Safety Instructions carefully before operation. Incorrect handling could cause a serious hazard such as death, WARNING serious injury etc. with a high WARNING probability. No connection in the middle of power cord or extend Incorrect handling could cause a the power cord.

P a g e 4.2 Installation Site Select a suitable location for the unit, where the unit will not be subject to any damage. a) The unit must be mounted on a flat and level foundation capable of supporting the entire operating weight of the equipment.
| 10 P a g e 4.4 Electrical Installation 1.ELECTRICAL SAFETY It is important to ensure that all aspects of the installation comply with the latest I.E.E. Regulations. It is also important to ensure that any remote devices which terminate within the pool hall are of the type and voltage as specified in the latest I.E.E.
| 11 P a g e 4.5 Plumbing CONDENSATE DRAIN The condensate drip tray in the dehumidification unit collects the water removed by the dehumidification process, It is therefore necessary to ensure that the dehumidification unit is placed on a level plinth so that the condensate can run away and not overflow the edges of the drip tray inside the machine.
| 12 P a g e 4.6 Air-Cooled Condenser Installation The most important consideration which must be considered when deciding upon the locations of air-cooled equipment is the provision for a supply of ambient air to the condenser, and removal of heated air from the condenser area.
| 13 P a g e 4.7 Pipe Installation Installation of the outdoor air-cooled condenser should only be done by a qualified refrigeration mechanic familiar with this type of work. Many service problems can be avoided by taking adequate precautions to provide an internally clean and dry system and by using procedures and materials that conform to established procedural standards.
| 14 P a g e 5 Water Chemistry 5.1 Pool Water Chemistry Water chemistry in swimming pools is critical for the health of the bathers and the condition of the enclosure and components. An enclosure with poor water chemistry has a noticeable “chlorine” smell, which is an indication of high chloramines in the air.
| 15 P a g e • If the unit is equipped with the auxiliary water-cooled air conditioning condenser, ensure that proper water flow and temperature are available. Check the water flow direction into and out of the unit. • Make sure that the fan belt(s) are tight and the fan scroll turns freely in the blower housing. •...
| 16 P a g e 7. Change the water temperature set point lower/higher than 27°C. This should cause the unit to change to air heating mode. 8. If the unit is equipped with an auxiliary air-cooled air conditioning condenser, change the air temperature set point lower/higher than current air temperature.
