SWIMMING POOL HEAT PUMP
SWIMMING POOL HEAT PUMP
Note: Switch off the power prior to maintenance or repairs.
IMPORTANT REMARK: if a malfunction can not be resolved immediately, in order to analyse the problem
itself, we will need to know the message(error code)that is displayed on the controller, as well as the
values for the settings (parameter 00-10 for LCD display while parameter 0-A for LED display) and for
status of the heat pump (ambient temperature,water inlet/outlet temperature and system coil temperature)
just before the failure or,if this is impossible, just after it.
Please keep this information at hand when calling customer service.
On the following pages, you will find an overview of the different types of failure problems that can occur,
along with directions to solve them.
