HEATH AND SAFETY WARNING 1.0 INTRODUCTION Calorex ‘Propac’ HC air to water heat pumps are for areas of the world where All units have integral safety devices to protect the heat pump from internal the ambient temperature can vary from 7ºC to 50ºC. The pool water is and external faults.
1. THE EVAPORATOR collects the heat from the outside ambient air, pre-heated by the 1. THE COMPRESSOR where it is sun. In the Calorex swimming pool heat pumps, high volumes of outside air are drawn into compressed and upgraded to a much the unit by the fan expelled through the evaporator fins.
2.1 ACCESSORIES d) All Calorex heat pumps are by design as quiet as is practical, however due The heat pump is supplied with accessories which aid installation. On delivery consideration should be given to siting the heat pump in order to minimise the the accessories are in a plastic bag in the heat pump electric box.
2.3 AIR FLOW Due consideration must be given to air flow i.e. do not obstruct inlet or outlet and ensure discharge to air cannot recirculate to inlet. (See below). POSSIBLE POSITIONS OF A CALOREX HEAT PUMP SUITABLE OPENING SUITABLE OPENING CALOREX >...
(see section 3.1) unless installation is as per filter c) The Calorex Heat Pump must be connected after the filter in the return pipe dosing. This includes the practice of dosing chemicals direct into skimmer to the pool.
