2. Installation and operation

Caution!
Please observe the following rules when installing the heat pump:
- Any addition of chemicals must take place in the piping located downstream from the heat pump (i.e.
the chemicals cannot enter the heat pump).
- Always hold the heat pump upright. If the unit has been held at an angle, wait at least 24 hours before
starting the heat pump.
2.1.

Heat pump location

The unit will work properly in any desired location if the following three conditions are met:
1. Good ventilation - 2. Power supply - 3. Pool filter pump
The heat pump should be installed in a well-ventilated place outside, and the distance from the swimming pool
should be greater than or equal to 2 meters. The machine outlet should be at least 1 meter away from any
obstacles. Please consult a professional installer for installation indoors.
Attention! Do not install the unit in a confined or insufficiently ventilated location, of in a place where it may
block the air intake. These locations can affect the air flow, it will cause the air to recirculate, resulting in
reduced efficiency. It even may stop the system from running.
2.2.

Initial operation

Please ensure the order: when starting, start the filter pump before the heat pump, and when finishing, turn off
the heat pump before the filter pump, otherwise it will damage the heat pump. To heat the water in the pool (or
hot tub), the filter pump must be running to cause the water to circulate through the heat pump. The heat pump
will not start up if the water is not circulating.
