There are two ways to
manage water flow into the
CLIM8ZONE unit:
TM
1
Install a ball valve (figure 11, L). This requires
manual adjustments by the installer. A circulation
pump should be used as the heating pump. A two-
speed pump is incompatible with a ball valve setup.
2
Install a flow control valve
(figure 11, L) - Patent Pending. The flow
control valve automatically adjusts water flow into the
CLIM8ZONE unit. A circulation pump or two-speed
TM
pump can be used as a heat pump in a flow control
valve setup.
HEAT PUMP vs HEATING PUMP
HEATING PUMP
A heating pump (figure 11, H) is a water pump that
circulates water through the electric heater contained
in the BP Control System (figure 11, N). The heating
pump does not contain a heating element. It is simply
a water pump.
There are two types of heating pumps:
1 - Circulation pump
2 - Two-speed pump.
If the spa has a two-speed heating pump, it will
circulate water at low speed through the
electric heater.
HEAT PUMP
A heat pump can both heat or cool spa water, and all
of the heating and cooling equipment is contained in
the heat pump. CLIM8ZONE (figure 11, A) is a
heat pump.
