The PoolPak™ System utilizes an environmental control package designed to meet all special needs of the indoor pool environment, while reducing energy usage and building maintenance costs.
A strong “chlorine” odor is an indicator of poor pool water chemistry and is generally offensive to the occupants. Higher levels of chloramines can cause skin/eye irritation and respiratory problems commonly known as “lifeguard lung”. Most poolrooms are designed with a minimum ventilation rate to dilute the airborne pollutants generated from the chemical interactions in the pool water.
ROOM AIR DISTRIBUTION All PoolPak™ models provide continuous air recirculation, and with a good air distribution system, will promote uniform space conditions. To remove the required moisture and maintain controlled conditions, it is essential that there be adequate air movement and distribution in the natatorium.

Supply ducts should be as short and with as few turns as possible.
PoolPak™ System. Return grilles can be placed high in the space to reduce return ductwork, however removal of chloramines from the occupied area has become much more of a design consideration and so low returns are favored by poolroom designers.
Ducts can be fabric, aluminum, PVC, or galvanized steel. Even though “dry air” is being supplied back to the pool, do not use duct board or similar materials. If the PoolPak™ unit is installed in an area that is below the natatorium’s dew point temperature, the ducts may require insulation, pitching and drainage.
System’s major function is to dehumidify the pool enclosure air through a vapor compression cycle. During this cycle the PoolPak™ System recycles the sensible and latent heat and places it back into the pool water and air as needed. This recycling process saves money and keeps your pool environment efficient and safe.
“grains of moisture per pound of dry air” and is directly related to the dew point temperature. The ECC uses dew point control to operate the PoolPak™ unit and maintain the moisture level below the setpoint (see Figure 2-1). The space dry bulb temperature and relative humidity determine the dew point temperature. By varying the space temperature and space relative humidity set points, the dew point set point is changed.
POOLPAK™ OPERATION The PoolPak™ 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.

Remote Access Package is available only with a BACnet/IP based Building Automation System (BAS). The PoolPak™ ECC III also has the option to be directly connected to several different BAS options. The ECC III can be connected to either a LonWorks based BAS or a Modbus RTU based BAS, BACnet/IP and BACnet MS/TP.
If the outside air is warmer and/or dryer than the air leaving the evaporator, all the air leaving the evaporator is exhausted and 100% outside air is drawn into the PoolPak™. All the heat recovered in the PoolPak™...
PURGE MODE (SR AND SEP) The PoolPak™ has a purge cycle to fully ventilate the natatorium at the airflow (CFM) specified for the unit’s supply fan. The purge cycle is programmable by the owner as necessary to ventilate the natatorium after shocking the pool. Unit controls provide completely automatic operation by controlling the supply fan and return (or purge) fan and by opening the outside air and exhaust air dampers for the programmed time intervals.

RIGGING PoolPak™ units require the use of a spreader bar that is at least as wide as the unit. Care must be taken to remove all doors or openings that will interfere with the chains or slings to prevent damage to the unit. In general, two to four lifting points are provided on each side of the unit, depending on the unit size and length.
The unit must be mounted on a flat and level foundation capable of supporting the entire operating weight of the equipment. The unit MUST NOT set flat on a concrete slab. The PoolPak™ unit MUST BE raised 6 inches to allow for sufficient height to adequately trap the condensate line and to allow for electrical service entrance.
Curbs have been designed specifically for the PoolPak™ product line. Contact factory for roof curb dimensions. The outside dimensions of the curb are such that the base of the PoolPak™ extends over the edge of the curb on each side. This aids in preventing rain water, running down the sides of the unit, from getting between the base of the PoolPak™...
The ECC III includes a 7-foot long, black RJ25 cable. If the RIU is to be mounted directly to the PoolPak™ unit, this cable can be plugged directly into port J10 on control module CM1 in the PoolPak™ control panel.
RJ25 cable to the jack on the back of the RIU. Slide the RIU onto the bracket until it snaps into place. An extra RJ25 cable is supplied to allow direct connection of the RIU at the PoolPak™ control panel during service or startup.
AUXILIARY POOL WATER HEATING SYSTEM (10) The auxiliary pool water heating system is not provided by PoolPak™. The ECC III provides a dry contact closure that signals a need for auxiliary water heating. The contacts may be directly connected to the heater control circuit, provided it is 24 VAC maximum and the current does not exceed 1A inductive.
The ECC III provides an analog signal to control a proportional hot water or steam valve. Normally, the valve is factory- mounted and wired inside the PoolPak™ unit. However, if a remote valve is used, it can be connected directly to the PoolPak™...

PoolPak™ System. It is only turned on either when the heat available from the PoolPak™ is insufficient for pool water heating and pool water temperature drops to 1.5°F below set point or when the pool water flow to the PoolPak™ unit is below the minimum required water flow.
A pool water loop flow switch is factory-installed in the PoolPak™ unit. The flow switch is factory-calibrated and should not be adjusted. If the flow switch contacts are not closed when water is flowing through the PoolPak™ unit, there may be insufficient water flow.
If condensate is returned to a closed filter system that does not have a surge tank, care must be taken to ensure free flow of condensate back to the closed filter. For additional questions or concerns regarding installation of condensate drains, please contact PoolPak™ Service. Figure 4-3. Negative Pressure Condensate Piping Schematic...
AIR-COOLED CONDENSER INSTALLATION SPACE AND LOCATION REQUIREMENTS The most important consideration which must be taken into account 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.
Units in Pits The top of the unit should be level with the top of the pit and side distances increased to “2W”. If the top of the units is not level with the top of the pit, discharge cones or stacks must be used to raise discharge air to the top of the pit. This is a minimum requirement.
◦ The highest point in the discharge line should be above the highest point in the condenser coil. (See Figure 4-8) ◦ The hot gas line should loop toward the floor if the condenser is located above the PoolPak™ unit, especially if the hot gas riser is long.
Above chart is for lineset length less than 100 ft and ACC located less than 50ft above unit or 20ft below unit. Failures due to a piping layout not within these limits nor receiving prior PoolPak Factory approval will not be covered under PoolPak™ warranty.
Refrigerant and Oil Charging: • PoolPak™ units are shipped with the required charge for self contained operation only. The remote ACC option does NOT provide the refrigerant charge or oil required for the ACC and line sets. • Refer to the below remote ACC and line size charging charts to calculate the additional charge required.

MULTIPLE UNIT INTERFACING When there is more than one PoolPak™ unit installed at a single site, the units should be connected together. This is necessary so that each PoolPak™ unit can be coordinated. It also allows the owner to access PoolPak™ operational information for all the units from a single location.
Connections (VPN) to the RAP will not be supported. SEND EMAILS – ALERTS FOR ALARMS When a critical alarm occurs with the PoolPak™ unit, the RAP will send an email to the PoolPak™ Service Department, via a mail server maintained by PoolPak™.
The RIU provides two network status screens. They can be accessed through the status menu accessed with key III. The first screen displays the status of units one through five as ONLINE or OFFLINE. Use this screen to verify that all units on the network are connected and communicating with each other.
NETWORK CONFIGURATION Using the following parameters, it is possible to configure the ECC III network to accommodate a wide variety of installation options. Press the I key to access these parameters on the configuration menu. These parameters must be set in each unit individually.
TROUBLESHOOTING OVERVIEW When properly installed according to the instructions in this manual, the PoolPak™ ECC III control system will perform as designed and will provide a pool environment that is both comfortable and cost effective. However, in the unlikely event that the system does not function properly, the ECC III has many features that will help a service technician resolve the issue.
