6.Do no use the heat pump if it has been flooded. Immediately contact a qualified technician to inspect
the heat pump and repair it if should prove necessary
Condensation can occur when the heat pump is running. This condensation can flow away through an
opening in the base pan of the unit. The amount of condensation water will increase when atmospheric
humidity is high. Remove any dirt that could possibly hamper the evacuation of condensation.
10 to 20 litres of condensation water can produce whilst the unit is running. If more condensation is
produced, stop the heat pump and wait for one hour before checking for leaks in the conduits.
Note: A quick way to verify that the water running through the condensation drain is indeed
condensation, is to shut off the unit and keep the pool pump running. If the water stops running
out of the condensation drain, it is condensation.
AN EVEN QUICKER WAY IS TO TEST THE DRAIN WATER FOR CHLORINE.
If no chlorine is detected, the drain water is a result of condensation. Also take care to leave air
inlet and exhaust passages free. Prevent exhaust air from immediately re-entering the unit
through the inlet.
7. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
7.1 Maintenance
• Check the water inlet and drainage often. The water and air inflow into the system should be sufficient
so that its performance and reliability does not get compromised. You should clean the pool filter
regularly to avoid damage to the unit caused by clogging of the filter
• The area around the unit should be spacious and well ventilated. Clean the sides of the heat pump
regularly to maintain good heat exchange and to save energy
• Check if all processes in the unit are operational and pay special attention to the operation pressure of
the refrigerant system
• Check the power supply and cable connections regularly. Should the unit begin to function abnormally,
or should you notice a smell from an electrical component, arrange for timely repair or replacement
• You should also purge the water if the unit will not work for an extended period of time. You should
check all parts of the unit thoroughly and completely fill the system with water before turning it on again
afterwards
7.2 Trouble shooting guide
Improper installation may result in an electrical discharge that could lead to the death of or serious injury to
pool users, installers or others due to electrical shock and cause damage to the property.
DO NOT attempt to modify the internal configuration of the heat pump.
1. Keep your hands and hair clear of the fan blades to avoid injury
2. If you are not familiar with your pool filtering system and heat pump
i. Do not attempt to adjust or service without consulting your dealer or your professional pool
or air conditioning contractor
ii. Read the entire installation and user manual before attempting to use, service or adjust the
unit
iii. Start the heat pump at least 24 hours after its installation in order to prevent damage to the
compressor
Note: Switch off the power prior to maintenance or repairs.
